I'll save John a post on this. You need to go into rrconfig, click the music tab, and under Audio File Types add ".exe" (no quotes) as a file type. I know it doesn't make sense, but it's required.

Awesome!

And everything seems to be working flawlessly

John, I am trying to install using the auto installer, but I keep getting a error like this in a box:

error: file not found
code: 800a0035
sourceL Microsoft VBScript runtime error

I tried re-downloading everything and starting over, but no good. Any suggestions or will I be forced to do manual install? Thanks

Jeff

It is beautiful! Good work man!

I found that I couldn't get the playlist to save. Also, when the mp3's are embedded with art, switching between the player, brower & visualization didn't properly update the art. Often time art was shown from the previous song.

Love the skin, thanks so much for making it sharing it with everyone.

Unfortunately I have to use the digital clock because my system freezes up with the analog clock, but is there any way to use the digitial clock and the compass? I really like the compass...

Also, I am experiencing an issue with iGuidance. I also had this issue with Blue Devil skin though, but never mentioned it. When in GPS mode, the skin button that looks like an arrow, will bring up the screen in the skin with large buttons for atm, restaraunts, address, etc, but when I push any of those said buttons, it only brings me to the regular iguidance menu, not the specific menu (for atm or whatever I push). I forget what iguidance version I have, 2.xx something.

Only other issue I've noticed is that whenever roadrunner starts the date and time gets changed to something else, no matter what my pc date/time is set to. Even when I set the date/time back to normal, RR overrides it. Don't know if it has anything to do with the skin or RR, it might be my system, but I never noticed it before using this new skin.

Thanks again!!!!

Wow, that is a pretty vague error message, leave it to MS! Does the error happen to give a line number or any other information than that?

I am thinking it is not actually a file missing in the installer, as this has not been reported when installed on other users computers. It could possibly be some of your VBRuntime files are out of date, that are needed to execute the VBScript.

I am not sure but downloading the updated runtime files HERE from Microsoft may help.

Could you explain a little more on what is happening with the playlists? Is the OSK not coming up, are the the songs in the current playlist just not saving correctly ect...

As for the images, RR has an issue itself keeping it's images up to date, and getting them confused with other things, for instance you can go to the Satellite player, and sometimes before a station is picked, the album art from the music dir will sometimes show up.

Also, on the browser screen, the image displayed will always match the item selected in the list, and not necessarily what is playing at the time.

The compass is also Flash, and thats why it is not included on the Digital clock screen. If the clock is slowing your system down, unfortunately the compass will probably have the same effect.

As for iGuidance, I am sorry to report that they scripts were made to work with iGuidance 3.0. The menu structures are different than 2.0 and unfortunately will not work. I do not have 2.x here to install to create the correct scripts for it.

I'm assuming you have created a folder to contain playlists and have pointed to that folder in RRConfig.

If you have done so and it's still not working you should go to RRConfig, hit the music tab and add ".m3u" (no quotes) to the audio file types. Then exit and restart RR and try to save another playlist. Please let us know if that does the trick.

Kbreeden, thanks! That reminds me of something else concerning this with the Playlist path. Check the Help file under How Do I save Playlists. There are detailed instructions in there on how to get it all working. There is a bug in the RR.config utility that will not save the path, even if you put it in there.

There is SUPPOSEDLY about a new feature in an upcoming Road Runner, (Heard it through the grapevine, and waiting to hear back from Guino to confirm/deny it) that will allows additional INI settings to be saved in the Skin folder itself. I wait patiently for that day, as then I can add all the stuff in to make the skin work correctly "out of the box" so to speak.
