My CF 1.5 issues

**moahdib** · 01-26-2006, 07:41 PM

I have a request and an issue for anyone who can help.

1- I use a USB external sound card and CF doesn't autostart playing.
Also, for some reason when I first start CF, I have to go to Media and UNMUTE for me to first hear the music. Is this normal??
The sound also mutes everytime I go from Iguidance to Media.
Its kinda annoying...is there something I overlooked?

2- In the Settings screen, the DUN phone # does not seem to accept #777 which is what i use to dial up to Verizon network.
Instead, after saving the settings, it saves some garbage characters, everytime i change something in settings and save the configuration, the phone number of my DUN connection changes to something really strange.

3- I am trying to embedd Google Earth and I think its not able to because of the splash screen. Is there a way you could have a timeout for finding the window name and then embedding it? I know i can use Skinner to do this but it'd just be a lot cleaner if CF could do that without using a skinning tool.

Thanks in advance guys.

I'm not sure about the muting problem... For the DUN number and this version you need to use valid XML characters... I don't html encode in 1.5, but I fixed this in 1.6... Try using "

I'm not sure about embedding google earth... Adding a timer might work... Does the splash screen have the same window name as the application?

I too get the mute problem, it only started happening recently. It seems that pressing the Media button also causes the mute button to be pressed. It changes the icon and remains green too. It will often remain like that even after unmuting.

google earth splash screen is not the same but i am sure i can use skinbedder to embed it.

A little more info on the muting problem is when I remove the usb soundcard and restart centrafuse, it uses my onboard audio just fine and starts playing music right away. Only happens with the external sound card.

Thanks for the help David.
