Fixed the radio module for stretched 800x600 brushed metal skin

**febsperanza** · 05-11-2004, 01:33 PM

OK I've fixed the errors in the stretched 800x600 radio skin (the default radio by coyote, not confused's). You can download it here http://www.my105e.com/febsperanza/St...dio_player.zip. It is also included in the brushed_metal.zip file.

Let me know if there's anymore errors that I've made.

This works, but only after I get the following:

Eror Number: 380
Invalid property value

Debug Information:
MEDIACAR.Frm_radio_player.LoadSkin

Wierd thing is I get the same error for every screen using the Lagune skin, but for the most-excellent brushed metal, I only get it upon choosing the radio, then after dismissing the dialog all is sweetness and light.

Anyone know the cause of this?

Thanks

Installed the fonts yet?

fonts? Umm, I must have misssed that, I'll go back through the thread and find that post.

Sorry if this one has been asked/solved a million times already.

yep, thats what it was. I must have been day dreaming when that was mentioned. My appologies.

I bought a new head unit to match the skin today! It has a red night-glow illumination that goes really well with the skin.

The other reason - besides matching your skin - was to provide an AUX input. In vehicle the manufacturer added that in the following model year so I had to get something else.

to run mediacar at 800x600 is it only necessary to replace the skins or are there other configuration items i need to be aware of? one video driver for my car supports the proper resolution, but it doesn't have dual monitor control (im running on a laptop and need to be able to shut off the laptop lcd) so i cant use it. the one with dual monitor control doesnt support the proper resolution. i wonder whats involved with merging the two......... maybe compare registry entries.........

Hmm

as far as I know that error is because of the fonts that have not been installed. There are two fonts that you need to install: arial narrow and lcd. Make sure you have installed both and let us know if you still have the problem. Maybe Coyote or Confused can lend a hand?

Robr,
I'm not sure a to what you're getting at. I gather you have two monitors in your car with different resolutions? And you want both to run mediacar with two different resolutions? Wow! If so, I really don't know the answer to that.
