replace the windows search string "*AVS display*" in the setup by "*AVS*"

hi !

@DSM97RS

I tried milkdrop vis. , too but it won't work.
Do I need only to install it in the Media Car folder and change the search string or what have I to do to get this work with the MediCar v1.91b ?



greets Daniel



P.S. Sorry for the bad english :-)

ok now it works!

but i got another problem with it:

I am testing it first on my normal pc before i do that in my car.
Here on my pc milkdrop gets into the background when i am starting it (new version of milkdrop v1.04) and i can get it on top because its bigger than MediaCar so i can click on it. but how can i get it on top in my car on the 7" teouchscreen ?

I think im having the same problem, but mine is smaller than it so i cant get it on top. It seems like the first time or so i click on vis it works, but after that it either doesnt work at all or it is going behind mediacar.

Hmmm, that's funny, last time I tried it, it worked fine! Now I just tried it and I'm having the same problem as you!!! I don't remember if I upgraded inbetween!

Coyoteeeeeeeeeeee! What happened?

Not sure what you're doing but it works on mine if you click the vis button twice, the first time it launches behind MediaCar, the second click brings it to the front.

If you close it using the x in the top right corner it won't work again until you restart MediaCar! If you close it the MediaCar way, near the top right corner, it will open again but still behind MediaCar.

If you use MilkDrop you must update the windows search string for the MilkDrop windows to "*MILK*" for exemple.
