Chut, try muting and unmuting.

Hi Frodo,

I've got the powermate set to mute and un-mute with a single press. I did try it from there and it didn't seem to make any difference. Do you want me to try it from windows sound control or from the soundcard sound control? They work together, so it sholdn't make any difference but I can go to my car right now and give it a try, so I guess I will.

I'll let you know.

I think I found a bug... the channels will show up if i dont press anything until they do.. ( it takes a second or two).. but since Volume goes up to 30%.. I always tend to turn it down at first.. which somehow causes the channel list not to show up... but as long as I let it be until i have the list.. everything works...

oh.. and if you hit mute before you have the channel listing... it does not mute.. even though the button gets depressed.. and it says "Mute On"....

When you guys press the preset buttons does the channel window go to that channel? (the window with the scroll bar and all the channels?)

No. I think Frodo is working on fixing this. The FWD and REV arrows move relative to the highlghted bar also, instead of relative to the preset (currently playing) channel.

Yeah noticed that, it would be cool to have a setting to arrow through presets, or through the channel list.

I agree. If he used the double arrow to FFW thru presets and the single arrow to FF thru channels....that would be very convenient....(hint..)

Ok folks,

no resolution yet. I tried muting and un-muting from the sound card controls, the windows sound panel and from the powermate with the frodo player xm module open and no joy. The same from xmpcar and the software supplied with the xmpcr. I also noticed that the little window that did display the optical input frequency as 44KHz shows nothing now, until I reboot the system. I used to be able to close xmpcar before hybernating and then resume after coming back from hybernate but that isnt working for any program now, including the one supplied with the XMPCR. I'm gonna do a reblast of the system this weekend, If I can, and I'll let you folks know if xm resumes from hybernate when I do.

Take care.
