Thanks darth. here's a fixed version.

I'll work on bouncing the string next.

I've just had another thought. since we can have 20 charachters, how about this:

Code:
|<------ scrolling track name --------->| 2 1 : 2 3 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

That can be the track remaining time. this would hog the display, but if the code listens for any displayable messages and stops displaying for say 10 seconds when it sees one, then resumes, that should allow the other message to be seen on the display. We may have to resend the message in cases where the trackname was sent just before the other message was received.

I was also thinking for users that have both the MID and high cluster, independant messages can be sent to both.

what do you think?


I've seen a post on hacktheibus that there's a message sent when reverse is selected. this is used to tell the passenger mirror to go down. I wanted to know if this is for both manuals and autos. I don't see why it shoudln't work for both but just wanted to check. what's ur transmittion? mine's an auto (sadly)
