Those plugins arn't "built-in" they are just... plugins. You had the right idea with removing the "plugins" assembly, but i think the error probably has to do with the current skin "requiring" that assembly to be present. Look at the skin.xml file and you'll see how it includes that assembly. I'll modify the program to make the error more apparent that your missing a certain assembly.

Ahh yes, excellent. I deleted the line refering to that assembly, and I was able to run it without any of those plugins. Of course, the buttons associated with those plugins caused crashes, but that's to be expected.

I think I'm getting the hang of the interface. Thanks for the pointers, and for your efforts.

I've said it again, but I'll repeat it here, I'll be happy to help in any way I can to develop this further, as it's nearly exactly what I wanted to do on my own. :-)

havn't had a ton of time to work on it the past few weeks, but I've made some minor updates to bugs and such in the main application, not really any work done on the plugins. Again plese let me know of any bugs you might find.

I'm interested in helping out. I'm very good with C#. How do you plan on doing things like XM, FM, etc?

zzachattack2

could be incorporated into the media player if i decide, or if anyone else wants to code a plugin for it, then they can certainly do that

augieman

are there any samples of XM code talking to the XM Direct? I'd consider doing an XM plugin. How is everybody else coding their XM interfaces?

thanks!

Any progress on this?

sorry again havn't had a whole lot of time to work on it because of work and recovering from surgery on my arm. but i'll let you know when there are updates

zzachattack2

So I finally had some time to work on it, and finally....... the mostly documented API! So check out... http://67.190.105.16:3969/Debug.rar for the file which includes the executables, the documentation, and example code for simple plugins. Later I will put together some guides and tutorials along with the API for the final SDK but here's what I have now.

zzachattack2, why your frontend doesn't become an open source project on gotdotnet or source forge so we can all collaborate and contribute?

Its not going to be open source.... as of now.

Anyways today i finished up the complete xml-object and object-xml engine for skinning. So skin parsing is complete as well, as writing to a skin file (for use in the skin editor similar to visual studio forms designer, which is in the works right now).

markfind

Will skins be comaptible with roadrunner skins?

Marco

zzachattack2

^^No.

Updates are up as well...

Where can we download this? I tried the debug.rar link above and it didn't work.
