John -
Are there assumptions for this?
Like, are you assuming that our Music Path and Playlist path are different? Should they be different?

You can store playlists in each of your album folders, and use it to play that album, but that is built into RRMedia, as well as the skin.
RR uses a separate path to store playlists, the Playlistpath= in the rr.ini.
This is the spot where RR saves all playlists you create from inside RR. This way they are all in one place, and you can browse them and pick what you want. If you have playlists in each album folder, you have to do all the browsing to get to them, and may as well just play the music without the playlist if you have to browse all the way there anyways.
Personally my playlists are stored in Road Runner\Playlists\

Well now that we have "ACTIVESOURCEID", I tried a simple label BYVAR and it works.
Example label:
L,169,93,390,30,0,00,16,xirod,"BYVAR;ACTIVESOURCEI D;rdsname<<rdsname<<TRACKNUMBER||= - ||xmstation<<TRACKNUMBER||= - ||srstation<<Tagalbum<<= <<= <<= ","SCROLL-CENTER"
The above is from one of my skins and as soon as I update all of the referenced labels in them, I'll give DFx4 a go and report back. This will definitely eliminate the last nasty bug in your menu.skins.
Hey Giz... I have already found some issues with the way mitch had added that and helped to get it working more correctly for the next release

John, thanks for the info about playlists with RR. I'm still a newbie so this is all pretty new to me. Minoritydan, did the last playlist I uploaded correct your problems? Is it working properly for you now? Just wanna make sure as this is my first contribution.

That would be a workaround i guess.
From the FAQ:
"To set it up an Application on the Launch Folder:
-You must have a "base" launch folder (i.e. C:\LAUNCH\)
-You must create a sub-folder with your App's name (i.e. C:\LAUNCH\Calc)
-You must create a INI with the same name of your sub-folder (i.e. calc.ini)
-You must enter AT LEAST those two lines in the INI file:
PATH=C:\WINDOWS\system32\calc.exe
WindowSearchString=calc
-You must have the correct path and windowsearch (found with winspector) setup right for it to work correctly
-You can OPTIONALLY save a image with your sub-folder name for displaying in the launch screen (i.e. calc.jpg)
Note: The latest RR binary packages and install have examples of Launch folder and ini files you can use as base for adding other applications."

Wow, really? Not one person on this thread uses HD radio? Not one can tell me if their "Band" changing button functions correctly? It would be most appreciated.

Urhg...Remember back when this was released and a few of us had our Windows Fonts changed some how to the default DFX Font? That happened today upon a resume. I did not reinstall anything, change anything, or DO anything...Computer started up and boom, DFX fonts haunting my windows...Any ideas ?

Thanks.. I thought John told me before that he was going to make it so when you selected that it brought up your pictures path to be able to select it from there.. Guess not.
Thanks again..

2 quick questions.
Does this have the Mileage plugin incorporated? I thought it was in previous versions, but I don't think I saw it at anytime when I was setting up my PC.
Background: http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/rr-p...mption-14.html
I could not find Vehicle Maintenance - is this in here or was it removed? Its in the fist post of this thread, but I don't see it anywhere.
