Each item represents a series of numbers, like this: 27,28,29,31,32,34,35,37,38, The problem is that the FileReadLine function strips out the commas and reads the line as one huge number.

Question: Ez-B V4 Controller Cannot Stay Connected To Wifi
I purchased an Ez-b v4 controller about a month ago to mod an Omnibot 5402 I bought from Ebay.

Ez-B And Camera Resolution
Just out of curiosity, can the video input on the EZ-B handle higher resolutions than 640X480? With so many miniature HD webcams available, I was wondering if one could be adapted (provided the cabling is compatible).

Mp3 Trigger Mobile Control
Hi Folks, Its that time of year to get the G-Bot ready for Halloween! Always exciting. I must say I was a little disappointed to see the MP3 Trigger control is not supported on the mobile interface. It would be so much easier to control the robot from my phone 100%. Anyone know if there are plans to implement this anytime soon? Thanks, Gwen
