Centrafuse 1.6 Bugs

**Mbai2** · 03-06-2006, 08:51 AM

I noticed that when the song changes while you aren't in the media screen, the album cover will not change according to the song. When you switch back to the media screen, the cover will be from the last song that was played while CF was still in the media screen.

-Phone control setup box keeps comming up everytime i open centrafuse. I do not want to use it and I keep pressing cancel, but to no avail. Is this by design?

- weather plugin will not work in the car but is working fine in the house, this is the same exact problem i had with 1.5, when i go to select a location it just sits for about 2 minutes on the OSK and then finally returns to the setup screen with nothing in the location field. I am entering in my zip code which works on my home machine. I am connected via wifi in the car when tring to update location.

-I dont think this is a bug, and that is really bad for me (and possibly many others) but iGuidance loses focus whenever i try to use its menu or touch any dialog box generated by iguidance. Any time i press something centrafuse changes back to the main section, and i have to re-click on my iGuidance button to get back to it, just to set a destination (from favorites) requires 4 or 5 switches between iguidance and main.

-volume --> I know you said that this is the way it is supposed to work, but I cannot understand why. By the time i get torwards volumes i like the almost exponential increaments in sound are too much to bare, and i find myself in the mixer tring to use the pre slider to find a medium. there is 100% to play with, and I only use a range of 10%, I might as well only have 10 volume levels. The volume also never is completely off as with 1.5 even thought the range correctly shows increments between 0 and 100.

In button layout, there is no option for the settings button. I removed it to put it on the first page and it isn't in the list of buttons. I had to reinstall.

Sometimes the drop down menu items get mixed up. More than once I've had it show 2 "main" buttons and then another click takes it back to main and media.

The option to have ext apps start fullscreen doesn't work.

I'd like to have the menu button visible when in fullscreen. I use iGmod and it doesn't like it when CF resizes its window. So in 1.5 I ran it fullscreen and hit the home button to get to anywhere else. Now I don't have that option and it cuts the iGmod buttons off at the bottom after resizing it.

In the next version their will be an extra dialog asking whether you want to install GPS and Phone...

For now just close out Centrafuse, move Phone from the plugins directory to the pluginsinactive directory, and then reload...

- XM doesn't work quite right. I have an XMDirect so I selected XMDirect as the satellite radio device. When I actually go and listen to XM, CF just starts responding really slowly. The channels never list and there is also no sound. However, when I select XMPCR, the channels list correctly but 90%, there is no sound. I've only gotten the XM audio to work once and even then, trying to tune to another channel either doesn't work or is really slow. Also, when either of the above situations happen I can not exist CF without using task manager to end the process.

- Now for the suggestion...I think it would be useful to give us the option of enabling the header for external apps. Some apps just don't need to ever be full screen or use the keyboard and the extra screen area could be useful. I think it might also be smarter to align the header vertically on either the left or right side since this would use the available screen area more efficiently. This would leave no room for the app name in the header but this isn't really anything significant since the name isn't needed at all.

Other than some other minor bugs that I'm sure you know of already, this version definitely looks promising.

I never personally tested with the XMDirect, but it should work... All I had for testing was an XMPCR...

I will pick one up and figure it out...

Well apart from the phoco crash mentioned in the other thread, so far I've found:

Going to the media screen causes the audio to mute.

No sane way to jump to a specific song in the list. Getting a doubleclick on a lilliput is next to impossible, and the 1.5 behaviour of selecting the song, then pressing the play button at the bottom of the screen has now been removed.

WAV files. I know there's no ID3 information, but do we have to have "Unknown Artist - " prefixed onto the file name, it means I end up with displays reading "Unknown Artist - Force & Styles - Heart of Gold". Can't CF just trust the user to name their file correctly?

hey guys i was thinking about something ...
why we dont focus on one just one part of CF and report all the bugs we get this will be easier for david i think, submitting to much diffrent bugs is confusing, i am suggesting to open a new thread for each functionality like

media bugs
dvd bugs
gps bugs
radio bugs

and so on
what do you think ??

i agree with that it would bring some structure to bug reporting or maybe davids webmaster can setup a bug reporting site (with a list of already submitted bugs and the possibility to provide a solution)

there are already ready made packages for this
