One more vote for allowing support for Millenium Exclusive!

an interface between Millenium and chess.com would be great.

DGT boards have no LEDs, this disrupts the game

SquareOff also have integration with Chess.com. Millennium, looks like you are falling behind …

I hope chess.com has opened their API for Millennium programmers, if they have than we should see some good news...

Love the Millenium 55.. great design, quality and on board lights..

That day has come:) Just got an email from Millenium that now there is an integration with Chess.com via ChessLink. Those who already have the board and ChessLink, check it out, tell us.

I received an email from Millenium this morning announcing that their boards now can be used with chess.com

LOL, didn't see den_90's post about the same thing, sorry for repetition...

Great news! 

Just has checked their website - nothing there yet. Have updated ChessLink app - nope, no ChessCom there either …

I’d appreciate if someone could put here link for instructions, once those will become available … Thanks!

 

Regadrs!

sounds like April fools joke but its not April yet?!

Not an April Fool's joke, more like Christmas in October:happy.png

You have to open the Android app, then "More", "Settings"; "Connected Boards" and then connect the Chesslink module.
Have fun!

Can someone please post same for iOS ? Thank you.

It's coming according to an email that I had received from Millennium:

"The iOS version of the app does not yet have this option. Please be patient. We will inform you as soon as the option is available."

This is really exciting and something I've been waiting for.  

The latest ios version 2.0.4 only has Lichess integration and does not have the chess.com yet.  From the Millenium email "The iOS version of the app does not yet have this option. Please be patient. We will inform you as soon as the option is available."
Apple's internal review process is not very speedy, but I'm not sure if that is the delay or something else.

I'm anxiously waiting for the update, and will report back when it is available.

I just tried the Chess.com app (android) on a Millenium board..!! It's really great!! The only small gripe is that I have to click "continue on board" nice game started but that's a minor thing.. Really nice and the Millenium board is superb.. I really enjoy playing over the board chess on chess.com.. A completely different experience than playing on the computer display!!

Valdecarus

I can't connect to chess.com with chess link app, maybe because I am already connected to Lichess ? I am using android version, there is no option to go to chess.com. Can someone post the steps if you figured it out? Much appreciated!

Valdecarus

Found it! The button showed up when starting a game with phone app. Just connect the board via bluetooth settings an that's it!

Is the update for chesslink just for playing against another person or can you also play against the engines (bots) on Chess,com. I can use chesslink on Lichess with no issue, but does not appear to play against the engines on Chess,com. Am I missing something in the set up.  Can somebody provide any guidance?

ChessHouse has a nice video demonstrating the setup and use of the chesslink with the chess.com android app,

I would also be interested in knowing if the bots work with chesslink.  And if not, why not?

Hi all,

I just have bought a Millennium King Performance board and the chesslink module. When I try to play a new game with the optipn "Use connected board" checked I get the error " The pieces are place incorrectly. Look at the desk"

If I begin a new game without the "Use connected board checked" once I get the opponent I select "continue in connected board" and then I get the error " The onboard position does not corresponde to the current game position. Fix it or continue playing on the phone."

Is there anyone with the same problem? 

How can we solve this issue?

 

Thank you very much.
