Thread: Centrafuse RC4 Bugs

can we please be able to completely remove unwanted modules such as satelite rario? I have no intentions of ever using it, yet I cannot remove it.
Also sirrius, XM, Radio etc.

Surely these modules are slowing things down a little when they aren't required?

3D view still pretty much turns to 2d view when you zoom out

Can CF be made to grab new windows that an embedded program may spawn? Then use the back arrow to go back to the embedded app from new window.

I still have box like characters after the album title for some mp3's. Neither Winamp's, Foobar's nor the Windows ID3tag editor show these.

I complained couple of days ago that after 3.1 update failed my mp3:s didn't automaticly do the next track procedure after the song ended. I noticed that it was because of certain MP3 files when it did that. They are variable bitrate MP3s. Centrafuse seems unable to calculate correct lenght of the VBR files as the bitrate changes constantly. When I setup CF to show how much is left of the song - It'll show for example when the song is almost at the end that there is still -1:12 left of the song. Then it just jumps to zero and doesn't go the next track.

This was listed under things to look into... now I know what type of file is causing this, thanks...

I already have a very expensive external USB sound card with a very high-quality microphone attached. There is no way I'm going to shove more computer hardware in my car. If you disabled this to support radio or visualizations or whatnot, simply allow us to turn off that stuff (which I certainly don't use). This will be a deal-killer for me and certainly many customers, since there is no way I'm going to give up voice recognition on my front-end.

USB microphones work great, so do bluetooth... I will look into it... The only reason it worked again in RC2 was because I accidently had some visualization code commented out...

I could definetly add an option to disable visuals, radio, and XM completly...

I will look for some workaround, but it's how I get the data to feed to the visual...

You can't type using a regular keyboard - it jumps in the list only. Is that the "keyboard control doesn't work when you use web browser, navigation, or external application because they take over keyboard control" problem?

When selecting "Go" it should use the currently selected destination rather than having to use right arrow
eg. I use suburb/street -> enter suburb, right arrow, enter street, right arrow, select number, go OR right arrow. "go" ignores the selected number.

I am using older Destinator Australian maps. Could that be the problem?

street name issue works fine with the maps I have from Destinator, depends on your maps and if they are compatible and working...

keyboard control will work, list views get focus automatically, hit <tab> and you will have control of the buttons again.

GO does do this, something must be wrong... You can select just a City and hit GO, it will go to just that city, same with a street, except it will auto go to the next screen because it needs to know atleast the city for that street...

can you give me the map, city, and street so I can reproduce?

I did use loop from beginging initially, too slow.. Then binary, which doesn't work correctly, then I wrote my own search this method.. Seems to work, but nothing the exact map, city, and street will let me see the error and fix it quickly...

thanks for making it possible to sort favorites by distance.

next problem is that the keyboard has no funktion in search address screen, only the osk works.

thx
Matthias

hit <tab> to take focus away from the list view... When you go to any page with a list view I default the focus to the list view... You use <tab> to get out of this focus... hit it again and you will have focus on the main controls on the bottom, then again back to the list view, and so on...

is this with all favorites you add? for example add one with a new address, current destination, current location, and see which one you can't remove, or all of them...

1. GPS speed still doesn't really work (using metric mode) sometimes it just says 1 kph (when i'm doing 30) and lots of the times its about 20 kph off (destinator 3 and tomtom speeds are almost the same as my speedo!)

navigation in the city/street mode on the "benelux" maps seems to work fine.

edit and offtopic but i don't see anything about TMC in the future features.. is this scrapped or just very longterm?

still talking about TMC... It's more on Destinator's end, nothing left for me to integrate really... I am working on it...

Speed is a known constant issue... Their damn SDK can't seem to give me the right numbers or tell me what they are in...
