Remote Hub and IR Hub (v3) provides control over Local Video Player application, Samsung TV, and Bomaker sound bar:

• Remote can control Samsung TV and Bomaker sound bar independently using fork of IRremote 3.6.0 library (implement bug fix for led feedback when receiving and sending simultaneously)
• IrScrutinizer version 2.3.0 used to reconstruct IR signals for discontinued sound bar
• ESP8288 ESP-01 Wi-Fi module used to relay joystick movement to laptop for mouse control via TCP communication application (also integrated into LVP-WPF and Local Video Player projects)
• IRHub features:
  • relay IR commands so unused buttons on Samsung TV remote can be used for sound bar
  • connects to LVP-WPF and Local Video Player application via serial port to provide control via infrared signals
  • intercepts Samsung TV power signal and relays power on/off signal for sound bar
• Version 1
• Version 2

Win Forms application which syncs basic note interface with iCloud Notes:

• CEF Sharp library (embed Chromium in .NET app) used to manipulate DOM on www.icloud.com/notes
• 3 variations:
  • master: Basic note taker which uses RTF file for saving locally
  • cef-sharp: Keeps browser page for iCloud Notes open for application duration
  • cef-sharp-cloud-save: Created due to high resource usage by previous variation
• cef-sharp-cloud-save branch features:
  • To keep Chromium from hogging resources, the browser is used only twice at launch and exit of application to restore/save notes
  • Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word library used to preserve formatting between text save/load between Windows and Mac Application
  • Custom context menu item which allows time for notes to save before OS shutdown
  • Login credentials only required once using CEF Sharp cache
