Thread: CFiG v1 Centrafuse Plugin for iGuidance integration

Good point, I'll try later today launching IG standalone and see if it causes the same issue... Thanks...

the one problem that I am having is that if iGuidance opens, (and stays open when I exit Nav screen), the DVD player (in Centrafyse) starts misbehaving. Sometimes the audio starts, but screen gets stuck on main screen, it never shows video, other times it will go to the DVD screen but the touchscreen / mouseclicks become inactive, so basically you're stuck there. I can then only eject the DVD from the drive manually, and upon doing so the buffered up screen touches start getting processed. Anyone ever had a problem with this? Maybe not even a problem with CFiG, but with DirectX or Centrafuse...

Hello, done some more testing, nothing to do with IG, sorry about that, next time I'll get my facts straight before posting (noob mistake).

Now, two feature questions to see if it'd be possible..

1. Can it be setup so you can choose if CFiG will start fullscreen? I could do that when I added iGuidance as an app, so when CF starts it will start CFiG and automatically maximize the plugin?

this can be done, will try to get it in soon, but no promises on time

As far as I am aware as far as iG goes this can only be done using a OSR algorythim to read the speed right off the screen and then you could likely pass the value through davids api to cf (I have not looked at this part of the api since i do not use destinator currently, so i am guessing here)

however to be honest i am not looking at investing the time needed to do so, I have been working on other projects. If anyone wants to grow this app, let me know.

not without changing the skin
try:
<X>0</X>
<Y>84</Y>
<WIDTH>848</WIDTH>
<HEIGHT>318</HEIGHT>
<FULLX>0</FULLX>
<FULLY>0</FULLY>
<FULLWIDTH>848</FULLWIDTH>
<FULLHEIGHT>480</FULLHEIGHT>
<APPX>0</APPX>
<APPY>51</APPY>
<APPWIDTH>848</APPWIDTH>
<APPHEIGHT>268</APPHEIGHT>
<FULLAPPX>0</FULLAPPX>
<FULLAPPY>51</FULLAPPY>
<FULLAPPWIDTH>848</FULLAPPWIDTH>
<FULLAPPHEIGHT>429</FULLAPPHEIGHT>

Was this covered in earlier posts? I may have missed it.

Thanks!

i just loaded mine up @ 800 x 600 before making the changes to the skin file above and i did not notice anything
