# mediactl # mediactl
This repository contains the software running on the `mediactl.mediahell.hfbk.net` Raspberry that controls the media technology in the Extended Library ([see also Extlib Documentation](https://code.hfbk.net/medientechnik/ext-lib/extlib-documentation)).
mediactl sports a touchscreen that allows control of the media technology in that room – the interface for that touchscreen can be remotely accessed via [mediactl.mediahell.hfbk.net](http://mediactl.mediahell.hfbk.net) if your machine is connected to the [mediahell network](https://code.hfbk.net/medientechnik/network/mediahell).

## note about git ## Editing the code in this repository
Git does not work in the mediactl network per default. As of now the recommended way is to mount it locally via sshfs: Git does <u>not</u> work in the [mediahell network](https://code.hfbk.net/medientechnik/network/mediahell) out of the box. As of now the recommended way is to mount it locally via sshfs (replace the `id_ed25519` key with a valid one you own).
```bash ```bash
mkdir -p remote-mediactl mkdir -p remote-mediactl
sudo sshfs -o allow_other,default_permissions -o IdentityFile=/home/d0/.ssh/id_ed25519 -p2222 d0@mediactl.mediahell.hfbk.net:/home/d0/mediactl remote-mediactl sudo sshfs -o allow_other,default_permissions -o IdentityFile=/home/YOURUSER/.ssh/id_ed25519 -p2222 YOURUSER@mediactl.mediahell.hfbk.net:/home/d0/mediactl remote-mediactl
