James King and Steve Greenblatt discuss what we wish more people understood about AV programming.

Here are some ideas that were discussed and debated:

• Saying one system is just like the other except for a few things is does not mean it is easy to program

• Programming involves much more than writing code

• Scope creep and ongoing changes ead to unexpected problems

• Programming is not as easy as good programmers make it look

• Not all control platforms are equal

– Just because you can master one, doesn’t mean you can master them all
