************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

You might have grabbed the file as soon as I posted it -- I forgot to include the skin information for the weather. Redownloading the file should fix your problem.

Bad news

When using it on my laptop it works fine, but I just put the carpc back in the car (was testing with laptop hooked up to screen) I am also getting the error after a few seconds of playing something......

I will try to get some more info, but it seems to be something is missing.... Do you use any directX? Do you know what the dependencies for mplayer are?

One more thing, can you implement full-screen stretching like you had on the VB version? Very useful for in-car users running 800x600 on xenarcs/lilis
Thanks!

I think I've been able to reproduce the wrong scrolling title thing...

If I am listening to a song, then press video, and choose a video, it doesnt change the title to the name of the video.

I also noticed that when I have a video playing, press Music, then press the <- then select All Songs and choose a song it wont play it. it just goes back to a video.

Going to the file/dir list and seleecting something plays fine...

the "after a few seconds of playback" bug doesnt crashes FW, mplayer continues playback as before... at least for me?

**RoyN** · 11-24-2006, 12:47 PM

Very true... hadnt thought about that...

I have found the following:

- Videos seem to be working fine for me. However, the volume is going to 100% whenever a new video starts playing. It also goes to 100% whenever FW starts up.

- Videos, Music doesnt resume when quit/start again FW (I thought this was implemented but I guess not yet?)

- When starting up FW, go into music, Show All Songs, click a song, FW crashes after 1 or 2 seconds. I will post the error but I didnt have my memstick in the car. If I start FW, go into Music, then on the file browser, and click a song it plays. However, I was able to get a crash doing this, but it was the 3rd or 4th song being played...

- GPS window on FreeDrive is being cut off... The way that FD is done the menu stays on top and the map is cut out a bit... (see screenshot.) Also when going to other modules, the FD menu stays in front...

I'm going to try and get all the errors on my memstick but it might take me a little bit of time...

thanks for everything!

(weird,I cant reproduce the GPS misalignment thing on my laptop... maybe different resolutions is causing problems?)

This is probably because you don't have an active Internet connection in your car, and is also why this version is not ready for in-car use. This will be addressed in tonight's build.

Mplayer uses DirectX. Freeway uses GDI+ (gdi32.dll).

One more thing, can you implement full-screen stretching like you had on the VB version? Very useful for in-car users running 800x600 on xenarcs/lilis

Done.

Fixed.

I can't reproduce this ... can you give me some more detail?

I will add a setting to specify the starting volume in the INI file.

No, it is not implemented.

If you are ever able to reproduce this, post a screenshot.

Cool, I'll try and get more info on any errors starting from tonights build... I'll try and test it tomorrow...

cheers and thanks for your effort!

Changes
==============
- Skin resizing to fit the screen (please test this)
- Marquee updated with video filename
- Album art priority: (1) first jpg in folder containing song; (2) albumart folder; (3) Amazon.com
- Checks for active Internet connection before requesting data (should prevent some crashes)
- A few GUI fixes, including mousedowns and mouseovers that seemed to get stuck
- Checking for deleted files still broken -- removed for now

http://www2.onu.edu/~m-keryeski/ccfru-update.zip -- download and replace the freeway.ini and FreewayUltra.exe in the previous release.
