^^^ Yes exactly - let me test it out tonight again and see how that bottom bar affects screen real estate - any way we could get rid of the botttom bar as well - or make it like the DVD controls and only have it come up when the screen is touched in a certain location? Thanks.

DaRacerz: So you don't have any type of shutdown controller? I did add the feature for CENTRAFUSE to properly write out the playlist and current song when the computer is shutdown while CENTRAFUSE is running and it already did it when you exited CENTRAFUSE. In order to get what you are asking for I would have to update the playlist on the fly everytime you change it and the same goes for current song... That isn't a bug, but just isn't how I designed it... Everyone I know that has a carputer uses some sort of secondary battery or shutdown controller... You know you will really mess up your windows eventually by not properly shutting it down and you can get or build a simple shutdown controller for no money at all...

Yea, some sort of background thread that updates the information like every 1 minute or just each time a song changes would be great (and same for video), because I don't use any form of shutdown controller (which is something i've been consider adding once the weather warms up). Gotta say, I started this >6 months or so ago, and windows has failed me yet, so i'm personally not worried about it.

The bottom player controls are not there in full-screen GPS mode, by default. He modified the skin because he still wanted to be able to control the music while maximizing the GPS.

I am also having the same problem as "0l33l" ... except i am only getting 11 (eleven) songs read... and theres approx 2500. in my "media" directory..

also still having a problem embedding another app for my radio..
i can confirm the window name is the same using the small app you provided elsewhere (thank you) but still no luck..
link to software:
http://www.icom.co.jp/downloadfile/w...1000EXP_22.zip
without the reciever hooked up it will give errors but will run..
it's for a Icom PCR1000 reciever..

david, do you use overlay in cf? I'm trying to embed dscaler, it loads end embeds but cf starts to switch between background and foreground 'til it crashes

skoda · 02-17-2005, 02:08 PM

Is it not that you selected the wrong folder ?
I also had this but i dubbele clicked the my mp3 folder and then it auomaticly selcted the first folder in the mp3 folder.
if you hav the MP3 folder in c:/ you have the select the mp3 folder and click on ok and not dubble click on the folder to go in that folder.

Maybe it helps.

sorry for quoting myself :P
david can you tell me something? would be very nice to embed dscaler too, maybe with a few buttons to manage channels

veetid · 02-17-2005, 07:02 PM

Frankino: I will check into dscaler, the problem is most likely due to my use of layered windows, which I disable before I play dvd or video, but not when using external apps... I am in the middle of changing alot of stuff relating to all the drawing of the graphics so when I am done it might work... I also have TV/Cam on my list of things to add and integrate....

ok, here goes my continuation of complaints on the song tracking issue. your gonna hate me soon if u don't already, lol. oh yea, btw, the rest of the program has been great and well worth everything you put into it.

ok, heres the deal, lets say u got a long video. your thru it half way. this time i exited normally lke it should. popped centrafuse back on, went into video mode and resumed back from the begining. would be nice if you can resume somewhere within the last 5 minutes of exit time. guessing the same comes with the music player, though that i didn't check yet, but have a feeling it has the same glitch.

also, ionno if its been reported, but some of the windows in destinator stay always on top not allowing your keyboard function to work, such as the > destination > favorites > tools > add menu. though, i don't know if that is something u have control over.

veetid · 02-17-2005, 09:59 PM

DaRacerz: Currently I only remember the song/video track and not the location in the song/video you where at when you quit/exited/shutdown... This is already on my list of things to add, but it just didn't make it into this release...

I will check out the Destinator thing... It needs some testing, it's the first release...

I may be doing something wrong here but i don't know what... But i think that the above qouted "feature" is breaking my GPS usage.

I have to use Routis Launcher to click ok on the nag screen on iGuidance so that it will embed properly. Doing this in the new version results in multiple embeddings of igudance in the same window every time i switch to music and go back to gps.
