And if you say, it's allowed to me to make some version public (with the conditions in modRoadrunner listed)........you know that I mean.

To make it more clear. I haven't the intention to do a "hack" of the version, but in the past I have published some special-modified versions of rr.

For example. I use for me and some friends a special version of rr with "audiogenie.dll", cause there it is possibility to readout the covers from TAGID directly (and much more features). If offered you (1 or 2 years ago) this version, but you don't want to implement this cause of the used dll.... No problem for me, I created my own version.
For now I have not access to the fully code (as I think), so it will be much more work to implement your published "parts" of the code.
But I will see....

Is it possible to download your version with audoigenie compatibility .

If yes , do you have a link ?

Thanks

It's worth the trouble shoot time, the rewritten code is much faster with source switching. Like mitch said, it probably how you have it wired or a setting in rr.ini

And I still , no matter what I do , can't get iGuidance to find the GPS unless I start iGuidance first and then start Roadrunner.

That's because RR has built in GPS functionality and RR is stealing the GPS port before iGuidance has a chance to. See RR.ini and/or run xport if you want to split the GPS signal between the two apps.

And no I am not a Newb when it comes to this stuff. I have every setting just like it was and have tried every trick in the book.

You could have fooled us! You will probably have to adjust a few settings, as you are jumping a year in development time, many things have changed or been updated in the code, new commands, improvements, etc. Obviously you missed a 'trick' somewhere because it's really not that hard to make RR work.

I'm done with this build and I'm going back to last years. If this is what I have to look forward to every 4 months..... then thanks but no thanks.

Sorry that FREE software requires any type of thought or reading to make the most of it.

I find it interesting that this worked right for you in the 12-8-07 version but not in the new version. This same GPS port functionality existed in the old version as well. So you've set it up before obviously, most likely by setting the GPS port to 0 in Road Runner.

I wouldn't doubt that there's some user error going on here.

Guino,
I remember seeing your thread back on the 8 club but I never realized you were the one behind RR.
I'm preparing to do a carputer and I'll be watching this thread closely.

hailrazer · 11-25-2008, 11:55 PM

Well since I'm the only one who seems to be having problems, I thought I would give it a go again.

So I uninstalled the older version and installed the newer version.

No dice it still didn't work right. I was about to give up when I figured I would try the old Windows tricks. So I uninstalled RR again, and then did a file search and manually deleted every RR file I could find. Then I used Regedit and got rid of every registry mention of RR.

Shut down, restarted and reinstalled. Configured everything and Bam..... It worked perfect and ran everything perfectly even after hibernations.

So I guess it was "User error", though I don't know why it was my fault.

I already said that I'll put only a reminder on the next versions...

Guino,
Just sent you the file to your wb****** hotmail account.

If you get board guino and looking to add some new commands, here are some of my suggestions.

For Internet radio or streaming stuff.

Code:

If in audio and status=play and TRACKTIME=00:00 then 
	reloadlist every 7 sec. 
	setvar;autoloadlist;1 

	else 
	stop reloadlist 
	setvar;autoloadlist;0
End If

do this on
tracknumber change
play
stop

A button to manually start and stop it
“AUTOLOADLIST”,”BYVAR;autoloadlist; reloadlist every 7 sec.<< stop reloadlist”


And a command
“ONSCREENCHANGE” to trigger after entering and exiting screens.

“ONTRACKCHANGE” to trigger when tracknumber changes, good for xm, siruis and Internet radio instead of on “songestart”

Blue ZX3 · 11-27-2008, 12:02 PM

I think that is about the most clearest "Chuck" chunk of code that I have ever laid eyes one..LOL....

Um...some really familiar about that "ONSCREENCHANGE" cmd.... hummmm...

That's pretty good and it covers all the issues we found in the Trackname Thread. Hey Chuck are you using the ACTIVESOURCEID code MitchJS incorporated in the 10-13 build? Have you been able to add sources/IDs on your own? I know Mitch mentioned it but no one explained how to use it or how to update/add to it. If you've updated my code using ACTIVESOURCEID, could you post it in the other thread so I can take a look?

And it VB not RRCode which makes it really scary.

Chuck · 11-27-2008, 05:52 PM

I only use this for now

Code:

"ONSKINSTART","RUNACTIVEPLAYER"
"RUNACTIVEPLAYER","BYVAR;ACTIVESOURCEID;AUDIO<<RADIO<<RADIO<<XM<<SIRIUS<<AUDIO<<AUDIO<<AUDIO<<AUDIO<<AUDIO"

I use this for setting source

Code:


"AUDIO","LOAD:AUDIO_PLAYER.skin||SETVAR;ATVP;1"
"RADIO","LOAD:RADIO.skin||SETVAR;ATVP;2"
"XM","LOAD:XM.skin||SETVAR;ATVP;3"
"SIRIUS","LOAD:SIRIUS.skin||SETVAR;ATVP;4"

"ACTIVEPLAYER","BYVAR;ATVP;<<AUDIO<<RADIO<<XM<<SIRIUS"

um.....bear with me as I am a newb at all this....

i downloaded the newest version I could get (1.0.0.0) off guino's lil site and on trying to run it it says there is no valid skin (was looking for the.....SKINS/BMV2 extention, but i dont have that folder...)....WTF?

I have never used this before, any suggestions? I just wanted it to work so I could try it out. shouldn't a skin come with it so it can work from the get-go??

Blue ZX3, none of your download links work man...either a time-out or it says I cannot access... can you directly link it here so i can just click and download it?? SOOOO much easier to do that.

Did you DL the .exe or the installer?
this is what you need.
http://guino.home.insightbb.com/rrinstall.htm

Then run RRConfig and select carwings and choose media paths.

HaveBlue83 · 11-29-2008, 04:52 PM

ok, THX, i'll see what I can do tomorrow...I just re-booted back to my mac side after messing with it for awhile on here...lol... I figured i mixed something up.....EDIT: yeah I had the Media v1.2.2. EXE file amongst others ....

any link for the config file as well? I couldn't get it off BlueZX3's sig link.....

It is included with the install version of RR ( it puts a shortcut on your desktop even)
