Actually, I was thinking exactly that when I hit the post button.

Maybe you should open your rr.ini and make sure that "gpsport=" is set to the port you want to use for RR. If not, put it in manually. It's possible that your rr.ini became corrupted somehow when you did the upgrade and you lost the setting. Also, I just reviewed my rr.ini and noticed that pause on voice was set to 0, even though I was sure I set everything properly in rrconfig and DFX. I changed it to 1, but haven't yet tested to see if my music now mutes.

I did this allready, and the "system idle process" was running the highest. I'm goint to suspect it's the "indexing service" that is killing me. I'm going to disable it for the drive on the way home and see what happens. Thanks for all the suggestions.

So whatever you do, do not go asking him "When will this be ready?" "Is it done yet"? "When will you release it?". hahah just let him work on it in peace, and he will release it when he has it all ready.

Absolutely incredible... I'm assuming that once Guino releases it, you will have DFX updated as well?!?!?

First, let me just say this is the best skin I've ever used.

Now for the question..

When I go to Menu>Settings>Digital FX Skin Settings>Photo, Time & Date and select it, I don't get a list of photos to choose from.

Also, when I select Pictures from inside the skin that also shows up blank.

In Blue ZX3's RR Config under General Setup > Page 3 > Picture Path (Picture Viewer) your install set it to: "C:\RoadRunner\skins\DigitalFX 2.0\Backgrounds\"

Is that what it's supposed to be? What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks much!!

Did you set the path in the image viewer folder...there's an ini file in there that has a path that must be set to your pics. This is for the image viewer...not sure if this affects the skin photos.

I don't have RR in front of me, so I can't be sure of the folder name...but it should be obvious.

Yes, my ImageViewer_Config.ini has the correct path to my pictures.

But in my RR Config my picture path is set to "C:\RoadRunner\skins\DigitalFX 2.0\Backgrounds\" which I think is supposed to be..

From the DigitalFX Help File:

The DigitalFX skin gives you the option to change the layout of the main menu screens from within the skin.

To do this go to the 2nd menu screen, choose settings, then DigitalFX Skin Settings.

You can change your display to one of the following:

1. Analog Clock with Compass

2. Digital Clock & Logo (Non Flash)

3. Digital Clock and Compass (Some flash but not as processor demanding as with the clock)

4. Digital Clock and Date with an image of your choice displayed.

To change the image displayed in the center when using the above last option, Create a .jpg that is 400 x 400, and save it to the RR Skin folder as "Photo.jpg"
(You will need to reload Road Runner, if it is running, when you place that image in the skin folder).

Would be sweet to be able to pick them though!

Any ideas on the no pictures showing in the pictures module?

Thanks man.. Again SWEET skin!

Yea, sorry, didnt see that part of the question. In the RR folder there is a folder names Image Viewer. Open the config file in there, and change the following line, to the path of your images.

Init_Path = D:\Pictures\
