I have went into system properties and such, and still cant figure why some programs are displaying fonts correctly, and some in Italics. I will have to d a little more searching, now that I have figured where it started from.

Oh, I am running Media Center 2005 edition Rollup 2, with English.



.

thats the same OS im running, its just weird to me that it would happen to some people and not others, specificly me. Ive been using that font for at least 2 months with no problems. There is another version of the font here, so if you can grab it and see if it fixes it let me know.

So far one person says it does fix it, and one says it doesnt.

Is it possible to use FreeFone & nRoute(Garmin GPS) for this skin?

Cheers!

there is a standalone version of FreeFone available here
FreeFone standalone alpha 1.1 Released
you can just embed it easily using one of the FREE5x buttons, click and hold any of the buttons on the main menu, on the 3rd screen you'll see FREE5x buttons, choose that and go into setup. Check the demo video for a step by step of that feature.

ive never used nRoute and likely wont be adding additional gps support,
currently it supports iGuidance,2,3 (not 3.1 yet),freedrive,mapmonkey out of the box by just chooseing them by click and hold (just like above).

What i mean is i like the way the older version was laid out with the audio but i like the options with the new. Reason being i have a 4x7 screen and its a little tight trying to manipulate the screens while moving. I would just stick with the old but i love the other veatures that you have in v2.0

The old version of the audio player is still available and with some of the new features. To get to it, click and hold on your current button that is AUDIO, when the custom command screen comes up go to page 3 and pick "Audio old" and now your audio screen will be like the old layout. Not all of the new features are supported with the old layout.

Also, what version of flash should i be installing to get the visualization on the audio to work? I like the equalizer visualization. i hope i made some sense to you.
i guess i should wait for the "how to" guide that's coming soon. thank you for all the work you put into this.

oh i see what you mean, on page 3, that button shouldnt be there, it does do something though. If you click it it should change the vis layout for the main menu. Its the same button thats on the previous screen in the same location.

The page 5 buttons, shouldnt also be there and is a duplicate of page 1, so dont click them cuz anything could happen from restarting RR to clearing your winamp playlist ect. They are same buttons that are on page 1 just no labels.

A little rushing on my part. And these buttons are safe to delete from the .skin files. Im posting a small update in a few that has a new feature, a bug fix and ill include those buttons too.

flash has nothing to do with the visuals, but if you want the visuals that i use, there is a link to it in the old thread for this skin, check the history link on the first post. You'll have to do some digging and searching in that thread to find it though, its 1300 post and the link is actually posted a few times in the thread. I would link to it myself but its not on the server where i usually upload stuff.

You will need to use a newer version of winamp, the vis i use wont work with 2.95, i strongly recommend 5.13, the newest versions of winamp have several issues with Road Runner that most may not notice with normal basic skins.

this is intentional, there are actually a few different background images and menu layout options. Click OPT and on the page 2 there are 10 main menu options.
Some of them only change the size and position of the visuals, others change the background image and layouts.

Feel free to click any of these as they are non destructive, meaning that they wont permanently change anything. If you choose one, when you return to the menu the second time your choice is highlighted. I cant remember what the default choice is right now, but i know the default for the last version of this skin is "BIG VIS"

FYI - when i tried to change rr resolution to 800x600 in rrconfig.exe it still shows 480 height (and the color degrades to **** to boot)

lsxvoid 1.6 and Road Runner 9/06 release were working fine.

you shouldnt edit the show original height because the original height is not 600.
An easier way to do this would be from inside the skin, click the OPT button. On the bottom right button, has preset res for 800x600 and 800x480. This button when clicked simply copies a correctly preformatted general.ini into the skins folder and reloads the skin. No hand editing required.


EDIT:
note this button is 2 buttons, so for the res you want click on the actual text that says the res you want.
