*EDIT* I found where to change it in the skin.ini file. It was set to on, so I guess I need to update my software to get ilists to work correctly. Oh well! I still am curious to why the button shows differently than it should.

Hmmm Actually that is something I think I moved since the last release, as I forgot to put the button back in somewhere when I changed it on the settings screen to "Change Font". For now you can just set it in the skin.ini, as it is not something that will always be turned on and off.

So what is the deal with RRGas and DFX 4.0? I did a search for RRGas in this thread specifically with confusing results. So what is the deal, does RRGas work with DFX 4.0 or not? If not no big deal, but I want to know if it is necessary to manually make it work (in accordance with the instructions from Enforcer) before I actually decide to take that plunge.

The original gas that was in the main RR code stopped working because the site changed the way the prices were displayed, they started using a graphic file.

So we found a new site and an extension plugin (RRGas was written). I have used mainly similar codes, just sticking 'rr' in front of the original gas commands should get most of it working. (unless the current release of DFX4.0 from john already has them done)

I don't think John's latest code does it automatically (but I could be wrong). He is very good with making his skin very user freindly (I had next to no issues with getting everything running with the latest software) so I assumed he either has not incorporated it yet or there was some setting that I was missing (and I couldn't find a specifc RRGas setting in either the DFX config or RRConfig menus).

On a separate note, I still have IG 2.0 installed, it worked fine with my older RR/DFX 2.0 setup and it still embedds itself into DFX 4.0. However, on the screens where I should see the County, City & State displayed, I have no data. But I still get GPS coordinates displayed on the Gauge page. So is this an IG 2.0 issue or is there some setting I am missing?

I cannot even get the "youtube.skin" skin to load up. I looked in the DigitalFX4.0 folder, and found the plugin files and downloaded the youtube plugin from the Internet as well. They look similar except the one that I downloaded does not have the skins. I tried all combinations of adding the commands to the both exectbl.ini files, one in the road runner directory, and one in the digitalfx4 directory. I then tried copying the youtube folder to a plugins folder inside the roadrunner folder and still it doesn't want to load up.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

I can hit search and it will return a list of videos but clicking play wont do anything.
What am I missing now?

Hi John, Firstly let me say "Super" work on the DFX screen. I am a newbie here and i was hoping to get some help with getting destinator 7 working with the skin you created. I have searched the forum but nothing conclusive. I was wondering if you could help.
Do let me know any help will be much appreciated.

Alright, so I did some searching, but I didn't see anything about this listed. I can't get my nissan logo to show in the middle of the menu screen from the built-in changer. It works of course manually doing it, though. Any ideas?

Oh, and my album art doesn't work. I've got it in the artist folders, but don't have my music in folders separated by album. Could that be causing the problem? Thanks for the help!

This might be a dumb question but I'll ask it anyway. I want to know if I can somehow set up DFX & RR to automatically change from a daytime theme, to a nighttime theme in DFX 4.0? Right now I have two different user preferences set up, one day and one night. They have different backgrounds, font colors & slider colors. I would like for it to change automatically. I read in a previous post for DFX 3, that the option hadn't been implemented yet. Just wanting to know if there is a way to do it yet or not. Thanks for any info on this!

I hate asking question in this thread, but ..I don't know what else to do. I've searched the thread, Google, the Help File and all of mp3car.com to the best of my ability.

I formatted my drive and started from scratch Friday night, I just noticed that my ffwd (fast forward) and rewind don't work anymore. I switched skins and it worked in CarWings 2 so I assume it's something with DFX? Running newest everything.

ideas? Sorry if this is a horrible question that's been answered a million times....
