We have a winner!

I was waiting to see what would be the first requested color, to make that the next one. So guess What.... Red will be last now.

Just kidding! The red will be the next one released after the dust of bug reports and issues slows to a trickle.

BEFORE you guys/gals start flooding this thread with color requests

Uh Uh Uh, You didn't say the magic word !

The rest of the colors will simply be release on a "as is done" basis. So dont go asking for certain colors, as no certain will be done before the next after the red one. (The next color requested will be the last one done

)

Ohhh , do Orange next (just kidding). The skin is awesome but for some reason I can't get the logos to load. When I go to the menu 2 and select settings (I think) the logos folder shows nothing. I've confirmed that all the logos are in there but for some reason they don't show up.

Yea, as Kbreeden mentioned a few posts back in post #11, you HAVE to put .exe into the acceptable file types in the Road Runner Config utility, for the scripts that change the logo's to show up in the file list. It is also listed int he help file under "HOw do I change the logo" with illustrated pictures and all

Sangre! Welcome back! IM me when you get a chance.... I though you dropped off the planet or something

...and DON'T DOUBLE CLICK on the logo name expecting it to load. You MUST single click on the logo you want to use and then click on the "CHANGE" button. The double click will actually load the logo list into your audio player.

Should I respond twice?

Hahaha! Forgot about that one... I am still waiting to hear back from Guino in his fix fix in the SD commands. Soon as it is fixed / implemented , I will update the skin with the code.

Hey John awesome skin, i used your blue devil skin for a while, regarding digital fx, i have couple of questions:
1. How can i disable the transparent visualizations for player?, i don't want to see album art in background
2. Any chance for embedded album arts?
3. Do you have a version of analog clock that is round instead of square? my vw logo looks bad into square one.

How can i disable the transparent visualizations for player?, i don't want to see album art in background.

Straight (nontransparent) album art is the default view in the music player. Transparent album art with the sound levels over it as shown in the first post is a visualization option. To get it requires (1) some tinkering with Winamp, as explained in the help file, and (2) a press of the visualization button on the music player screen. If you don't do either of those you'll see a nice, crisp view of your album cover.

1) Kbreeden is right, it is solid by default. Change the settings he mentioned, and also in the rr.ini there is a setting "AvsTransparent=TRUE" change that to false, as when you set the visualization in Winamp tp solid, Road runner can actually over ride it.

2) Actually you can use any clock you want by replacing the .swf file in the DFX skin folder. Have a look in the "Menus" sub folder in the skin, and you will have to copy the line from the Analog clock in the skin to the Digital clock skin. Otherwise you will get the clock inside the "square numbers". THis is a fix for now, and I will also address this in the next release, to have 3 options for clocks. Digital, Analog, Custom. Custom being the skin with no clock numbers in the center, and will call "CustomClock.swf", Then you can use ANY flash clock, and just rename it to CustomClock.swf. Hope this all makes sence

3) The DigitalFX installer places the "Mp3Art.dll" (Guino's Plugin to display embed album art) in the root Road Runner Folder automatically. There is also the command in the main menu file to activate it when the skin loads. HOWEVER, I just looked at the installer script, and realized I forgot to also register it. DuH! Use regserv32 to register the DLL and it should work fine. (Installer has been updated for the next release)
