The only file I changed is frmSkin. I added a timer to the form and a variable and event handler for the logic. Search for "tejesh83" to see my code changes.

Please look it over to make sure its sane. This is my first use of VB.

By the way, since this new timer logic replaces the windows hibernate event listener in modCom, we may not need remove the call to "resumeFromHibernate" in modCom. It could cause a thread race condition in some scenarios, where resumeFromHibernate executes twice (once from my timer and simultanously from the APMRESUMESUSPEND event listener in modCom) causing havoc. If VB prevents concurrent threads from entering the same function, than this is a non-issue, but it would still be cleaner to have only one call to the resume function.

The fix worked for me 3 times and stuff went back to no music on return from hibernation.
I'll have to wipe it all out and try again later on today.

The fix stop work.....

only work the first times.

New progress:

Its works if i use the tejesh83 Roadrunner.exe and put i my ExecTL.ini:
"ONSUSPEND","CLOSEWINAMP"
"ONRESUME","STARTWINAMP"

Now when resume the music start, but again i need touch the screen one time activate the normal work of RR. When i touch the screen i can see the winamp start, and the current song restart to the beginning.

If i hibernate and i don't touch the screen at least one time, music don't work more and i need restart my computer for get music back.

Hi, friends:

First of all, its very hard to me speak in English, so be patiente with my explanation.

I had problems with hibernation, not only with RR. I had problems with various programs coded in VB. But there are programs like SpeedFan that intercept windows messages correctly. So I think the problem is in the VB libraries, for example, but not in RR Code.

I foud a solution that runs every time with all programs.

It is based in the DTR activation service (here in the forum explayed). I use a little Autohotkey script to intercept the windows, hibernate/resume messeges, and enables/disables the DTR signal. This singal is used by a little homemade hardware that controls two relays. One of the relays powers the screen (to power it on after windows is loaded and power it off before hibernate procedures), and other generates a pulsation send to a ps2 keyboard. And now we got the pulsation that enables all our system.

You will think is very complicated for a simple bug, but it was designed first for control the screen, and i put the hibernate bug killer like an upgrade on it.

Now i'm trying to control the circuit using the ScorllLock led of the keyboard to liberate the COM port for another uses.

I hope it was understandable, and useful. More detailed information, diagrams, etc (in spanish): http://www.solocarputer.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=7731

Bye.

Sorry for delay, I've been out of town.

For those having issues with the latest workaround, you can try the first patch I posted:
http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/1101867-post81.html

ONRESUME/ONSUSPEND events won't work, so plugins like phoco may not work. Mappoint and voice were also disabled in that build.

I'll take a look at the 2nd patch when I get a chance. I think I know what the issue is, but I haven't had time to mess around with it. If anyone has some VB skills and wants to take a stab, PM me and I can point you in the right direction.

This is going to be low priority for a little while, since classes start back up Monday. Also, it looks like my touchscreen controller and steering wheel controls shorted out yesterday, so my free time will be going towards repairing that first.

Just had a chance to do this is and what I have found is that all I needed was a fresh install of RR. I completely removed anything RR related with CCleaner. Got a fresh copy of the installer and it took couple of tries but it finally started to work every time when coming back from hibernation.

Iceman_jkh · 10-09-2007, 10:22 PM

Any update on this one?

Is this being integrated into latest version of RR?
I did install (or rather overwrite my previous version of RR with) the new version of RR 9-30-07 + HDRadio, but it does not autoresume. Still need to press a key/touchscreen.

Thanks
Ice

i thing sell my mobo and buy other... is sad that my carpc not resume good.

guino · 10-10-2007, 01:40 PM

I just got the sources from this thread, I'll look it over and hopefully add an option for next release .. it is NOT currently on the 9-30 release.

Iceman_jkh · 10-10-2007, 04:13 PM

Thanks guino.

Just checking if it was me going crazy

Updated mod for 9/30 release is attached. Like before, lets consider this a beta release, so use it at your own risk. I've tested it in my carpc, and it appears to work correctly.

To install, browse to your RR install directory. For backup purposes, rename the existing RoadRunner.exe to RoadRunner.bak or whatever you prefer. Then replace this exe with the one provided in the zip file.

The basic mod is the same as I posted previously for the last RR release. This time around I had more familiarity with VB6 and the RR source, so it should be less quirky.

Basic Algorithm: The code keeps a timestamp that is updated every second. If between updates, more than 60 seconds has passed, I have assumed the system has just resumed from hibernation and call the RR resumeFromHibernate function to restore the skin, music, ports, etc. NOTE: For testing purposes, please wait at least 60 seconds while the carpc is in hibernation before powering it back on so that the mod will trigger.

Please post your results. I can't promise to work out the bugs, but I'll try as time permits. If its stable, I'll pass along the mods to Guino to incorporate into the next release.

Thanks

This has been an annoying problem - clock stay frozen until mouse movement. It's not RR tho' because it do the same with other FE's I've tried.
