Thanks

Can you post what you have so far? I Might be able to make it work for the new version.

Here is a shot for you

Also the bottom part, where the play, rewind, ff arrows are, I see them if you mouse over that area, but that is all messed up as well.

Thats bizarre. It looks as if you got the form to actually run at 800x600, even though it is hard coded at 640x480. How did you get it to do that? What was your screen settings and refresh rate and all that? Did you alter the skin sizes at all? I would like to know all the details that you can give me so I can try to recreate it. Were the other modules messed up like this too?

OK you are right, it runs fine now because I changed the resolution to 1024x768. I will try and duplicate it and let you know the res and refresh I was running to create the above screen shot.

OK seems when it reboots I get the wierd
screen again. I also get this message at install.
Also Audio menu, dvd menu etc is all messed up when it is like this.

Just hit the cancel button and the installation will continue normally, it will error out on several of theses files like this. I am working on the installation to fix this.

**-zip-** · 08-23-2005, 08:09 AM

Aye that is what I did, continued install.

Sorry, the m3u file created in Mobile Impact is compatible to Windows Media Player, but the m3u file created from Windows Media Player is not compatible in Mobile Impact.

There is a work around for this. Mobile Impact can only read the full path of the song, and then load this path into the player.
Open the Windows Media Player m3u file and it should look something like this:

I am considering making the playlist module better in the future. Right now my main focus is getting the XM Radio module started and adding it to the program. I also am starting another project, and Im sure that I will have lots of bugs and requests with this new version. Hope this helps.
