The Visteon plugin was uploaded to the online repository yesterday (listed as "HD Radio plugin" in the tuners category)...should be able to just download it (Start Menu->openMobile->Install Additional Plugins) or grab the package from our website and let OM install it.

excellent.. have to give that a shot...

great job!! it is working great on my laptop, just need to send it over to the car one of these days...

my biggest caveat is that it is missing a minimize button..(so i can tweak my audio processing while keeping the FE playing audio)

i would really like to be able to easily change the background to a image, but def. not a requirement-- i kind of like the high contrast black/white theme though-- its going to allow me to put off getting a transflective a little longer..

I've got it up and running in my truck, and so far it seems to be working. I too like the clean black n white, though ibdidbhave to up the brightnesss on my eby701 a bit. The grey panel backgrounds were indestinguishable from the black. Aside from that, the first thing I missed moving from SD2 is a mute button. Dfinately something to add to the list come skinning time.

So I've been trying to get this going under linux and this is what I've noted....

SVN compiles if I follow your instructions and remove OMplayer, OMWinHal, and PandoraPlayer. Branch named 0.7 doesn't compile even if I follow the same steps as I did for SVN.

I don't note any .sln files for the plugins... As I am new to C# and monodevelop, I'm not sure how those are suppose to be included with OpenMobile.

Long click the volume button, I'll try to get a FAQ written out to inform everyone of the long-click operations and scrollable lists.

If you are one your lap-top, u can hit [esc] to bring the program out of fullscreen. You can also right click the shortcut and delete the "-fullscreen" tag in the shortcut target. I'll make sure a minimize operation is added to the 0.8 release. As stated before, 0.8 will be a complete rewrite of the graphics to allow hardware acceleration. During that time, we will also finalize the supplied skin, which will likely be a complete redo as well, to make it more intuitive.

A FAQ would be perfect. I spent an hour or so today trying it in the car. Things like working the HD Radio took a while experimenting to find how to set presets (among other things). Other questions like "how do I direct entry a station" or is it a possible future feature.

This is already supported by the framework it's just not included in the current skin.
