Thread: DigitalFX 4.0

Cameron,

Weather and gas are broken due to changes in websites from where the data is pulled. There is quite a bit of discussion on that. It will be fixed at some point in the future.

I don't know what's going on with your album art. What do you mean in your post when you say "it is hidden by the way?" Check the attributes of your folder.jpg files. If the hidden button is checked you need to uncheck it.

Also, as Enforcer hinted, you need to edit your post to get rid of all those image files. Better yet, take the whole quote out because it doesn't add anything.

Anybody seen something like this happen? I'm a bit worried how the car will perform, seeing as I don't have a keyboard handy....

I've got the exact same issue. It seems like the app locks up but I think it is just losing focus. Not sure how as I've got almost everything in the tray or a service but one app. Hitting CNTRL-ALT-DEL and then an Escape resumes normal operation.

I was patiently waiting for the next version to see if it was resolved there til I saw your message. Has anyone else encountered this? Resolution? It happens almost every time I get in the car.

All of these screens have flash embedded in them, and if flash is not set up correctly on your system, it will peg the processor at 100% and it will appear that the entire system is locked. There are about 500 posts on how to resolve a flash problem, as well as in the FAQ's at the top the forums. It is also in the DFX help file as well.

John,

It's not in weather, color chooser, or the gauges. I seldom use those. However, I am in the Music browser, Play list menu, or main screen a lot. It locks up here, especially the music browser. There are some others too but can't remember exactly which ones. I know about the flash issues and can resolve that one on my own like I did initially and that's how I got the logo (I'm using the multi clock, speedo, tach, etc one) to work in the first place. So, flash *seems* to be fine for me fwiw.

Hi Kbreeden,

I put the m3u without quotes in the audio file type in the music section of RR configirations. Nothing happened. Is there a certain way to set it up in winamp or to set up the directory in RR config? I can browse all the songs of the directory that I put in RR config, but no artwork is coming up. Do you know what I might be doing wrong?

My "add m3u" post was in response to an earlier poster who couldn't get his playlists to appear. That has nothing to do with album art.

There's nothing you need to do with Winamp in order for album art to appear. Are you seeing your album art when you're viewing the full player? Or is it just when you're trying to browse by album art that it doesn't appear?

What version of Winamp are you using? I had similar issues when I was using any version other than 2.95 or 5.13. You need to be using one of those versions.

Neither. I don't see any art at all. I looked in my music directory and all the jpg were not there. When I went into my control panel I checked to show hidden files and they appeared. ..But when I look at the properties they are marked hidden and won't let me uncheck them. Can the jpg be in the same folder as the audio files?
