Release - MC2.0 Skin

**WxGuy1** · 11-03-2005, 05:32 PM

1. If I use BMV skin, the strikethrough is still present on the song list, but doesn't show up on the top line (the line that shows the current/playing song). I'm not sure why the strikethrough would work appear on the "file/song list", but not on the "current playing" line (on top). Regardless, this is the same as the MC2.0 skin in that regard.

2. In addition, the album art does show up next to the "now playing" son title on the BMV skin! Album art still doesn't work on the main/menu screen or the "my audio" screen on MC2.0 though. I'm still not sure what's going on with Album art. It shows up just fine on the BMV skin, and it shows up in the 'browse by album art' view in MC2.0 (on the Audio_browser1 skin). However, it doesn't up up on the main/menu screen still... Instead, the standard background (the headphones, etc) is present. I figured flash was the issue, but the "spinning logo" (which has file extension *.swf) works in BMV (not to mention, I know for certain that I have Flash version 8, which I've installed and reinstalled several times). I'm not sure what else is Flash-based in MC2.0, but the "time elapsed/track number" feature on the main/menu screen works fine on MC2.0...

Do you also have the latest version of RR running?

Make sure the RR config (GPS) looks like this especially the bits ringed in red

I had RR configured as you have shown, but FD still isn't embedded. I got last RR update and FD 0.90, as suggested. Perhaps I should reinstall both of them from the scratch instead of updating-updating-updating...

Yesterday I was trying to embed it for an hour, roughly

Finally I could reach it, with Winamp 3.xx (I don't remember...) and Milkdrop setup. But other vis plugins (real cool ones) couldn't be embedded...

If the text doesnt look right, are you sure the fonts that come with mc2.0 are installed right ?

You need the FreeDrive.exe and the sdk.ini which comes with this skin installed over the top of the 0.90 release (this ones newer) To embed the vis, check afew posts back someone confirms how its done.

I should imagine you have to edit the font size in the screens using the RR skin editor. I haven't done it myself so can't speak from experience.

Release - MC1.0 Skin

However have a look at the line that starts with a S in the audio_browser.skin you will see a 24 before Gothic Century, the 24 is the font size.

Also in the RR root directory there is a file called skin commands, have a browse through that
