media car prob maybe

i have a parallel port relay card and when i click around in media car i seem to set these relays off. any ideas about this. i know this is no longer supported but i like the simplicity of it and it always works.

i remember something way back in the day about someone having a printer hookedup to a test system and everytime a song would change or something the machine would print.
i think that was media car.

anyway look around the config file/config program (its beena long time i dont know what it has) and look for output to lcd or maybe its LCD support.

try that and let me know

That's what I call automation... or a "Special DEffect".
