Refresh a single skin compenent on skin load

**Spawn12336** · 08-05-2008, 11:44 AM

Right. I'm using the Embedded Album Art plugin for Road Runner. Since discardable is not working, I need to find another way to refresh the album art when all of the screens are loaded (I have made my own skin that uses 2 monitors, 1 touch and 1 not, and the bottom screen shows track information on all screens).

The issue is that if I change tracks on one screen, then navigate to another, whatever the album art was the last time I was on that screen is shown, not the current track. Is there anyway to force the albumart to reload?

Have you tried adding a playlist "S" definition that's hidded in the skin files that have the albumart definition?

Nope, does that work with embedded art? I have all my music in a single folder. Care to share an example of this line? All I have on each screen is this, minus the X,Mp3Art, that is only on the menu screen.

Yeah, it works w/ embedded art.

Code:

/, S(PL), x, y, w, h, fore R;RGB, G, B, back R;RGB, G, B, played R;RGB, G, B, selected color R;RGB, G, B, select R;RGB, G, B, trs, font size;FONT, font name

No joy, had to sub in [,0,"Handel Gothic Ex"] for [,#LISTSIZE01#,#LISTFONT01#] on the last line else I was getting an error 13, but still doesn't work.
