mpfjr: Do you have singleclick enabled? If so try the web favorites with singleclick disabled and let me know if it works. You can rename the favorites to whatever you want. Basically it works like this... Navigate to a web page, then click on the favorites manager, then click add. You will see the OSK popup with the URL in the textbox. At this point you can clear the URL and give it whatever name you want. That is why the OSK pops up.

mpattonm: dashboardmonkey is a nice site, but it's not mine... itrends posted my update on there for me...

First david, this release is looking really good. Though, the buggie thats been bugging me is still there. though, this did happen on the first run of a fresh install, haven't tried this on a secnd reboot yet. Anycase, lets say i change the playlist or change the current position in the playlist. aka, when app started in position 1, its now playing the 5th song. i abruptly pull the key out of the car cause thats just what i do. when everything comes back on next time i go to use the software, centrafuse looses the last position/last playlist.

Ok... I redownloaded and reinstall CF. I still get it reading 122 files

Great job on the GPS embedding and relaunching improvements! No problem with your ID3 tag reader, over 10,000 mp3s read with 0 problems. Thanks!

DaRacerz: So you don't have any type of shutdown controller? I did add the feature for CENTRAFUSE to properly write out the playlist and current song when the computer is shutdown while CENTRAFUSE is running and it already did it when you exited CENTRAFUSE. In order to get what you are asking for I would have to update the playlist on the fly everytime you change it and the same goes for current song... That isn't a bug, but just isn't how I designed it... Everyone I know that has a carputer uses some sort of secondary battery or shutdown controller... You know you will really mess up your windows eventually by not properly shutting it down and you can get or build a simple shutdown controller for no money at all...

I will think about making it write everything on the fly anyway though...

0l33l: I am not sure what is going on with the id3reader for you... When the id3reader runs does it say it imported all your songs or does it actually only display 122 read in the dialog when it is finished?

^^^ Yes exactly - let me test it out tonight again and see how that bottom bar affects screen real estate - any way we could get rid of the botttom bar as well - or make it like the DVD controls and only have it come up when the screen is touched in a certain location? Thanks.

Yea, some sort of background thread that updates the information like every 1 minute or just each time a song changes would be great (and same for video), because I don't use any form of shutdown controller (which is something i've been consider adding once the weather warms up). Gotta say, I started this >6 months or so ago, and windows has failed me yet, so i'm personally not worried about it.

The bottom player controls are not there in full-screen GPS mode, by default. He modified the skin because he still wanted to be able to control the music while maximizing the GPS.
