Lsx Void 3.0 - Page 5

yrean · 01-01-2007, 03:32 PM

I also have the italics font thing going on.. I havent done anything to try to fix it yet, ive played with the software for the past few days, making sure i work out the little things.

I totally removed any/all previous roadrunner and lsxvoid installs and started from scratch.

1. Im curious how to get the skin/roadrunner to autoswitch from the day and night skins. I havent got tht working yet.

2. playlists. not working like id think. I had everything loaded up, and clicked save playlist and it saved a playlist, call all music on playlist 1. when i selct that playlist it only says ALL music. but theres no music listed, nor does it play anything. maybe im confused exaclty how to set this up and im doing it wrong. not sure. I know on the old version I could select a folder to play. and then if i wanted all my music random i just hit on the three dots and it selected everything.

I like the traffic feeds. those are slick. how does the software determin where im at? can I change this on the fly, say if i have to drive out to columbus or something for a few weeks and want the traffic for the area im at.

the google weather vid is the shiznit. that is totally pimp. all the radars now work. Awesome.

Fm(HQCT) i havent messed with too much, but since i deleted all the old, im sure i gotta reset everything in the hqct software.

All in all. I love the skin man. thanks for hooking up the day version. I really appreciate it.

I do.. but for me its on startup, and it would hang the loading of the associated icons on the GUI (unusuable GUI, which I have to press the window key on keyboard, right click on it on the taskbar, and close it)

I also had this issue at the beginning, later i discovered that this issue is caused if you have RR installed in a path different from c:\program files\Road Runner\

So is necessary edit some script and recompile with the right path.

I have resolved all the problems.
Make sure you have the latest Autoit on your PC.

TO LS :
Liquid, you made an AMAZING Skin. I Love it!!

is it only me, or does everyone have buttons that is undefined on page 3 and 5 after clicking option? Is there a way to reduce the number of icons on the skin? I don't like having too many unuse buttons. I'm also getting the white box as someone mention above. I thought there was suppose to be some kind of visualization there, like on the demo. great skin by the way.

this is supposed to run on ONSONGSTART, other wise ther is no way to know if the song you are listening to is rated or not, if you noticed when you rate a song, the 5 stars on the main menu and audio player will update to show the songs rate status. Also, any autoIT script that is running, if you click on its taskbar icon it will pause the script, and unless you unpause the script it will stay loaded waiting to be unpaused so it can continue its job and exit. So unless its not exiting i wouldnt screw with it.

also, if there is a problem with the ratings, check the ratings plugin thread in the RR Plugin section, this is where it comes from. My skin has some specific settings for the plugin, but nothing that alters the source of the plugin or how it functions.

One thing you may want to make sure you have setup in RRConig.exe /rr.ini is your playlist path and to make sure its located INSIDE of your Music path.

So if your music lib is stored in C:\MyMUSIC
your playlists should be stored in C:\MyMUSIC\PLAYLIST

page 3 of what? there should not be one single button in the skin that does not do something. If you click a button and nothing happens, the most likely reason is the application that its trying to call is not installed on your machine. For example, CALENDAR loads Rainlendar and there is a skin i made for Rainlendar that is found in the old thread for this skin. Im still in the process of writeing up all the how-to's and moving over all the really important info from the old thread.

1. ive never actually seen this happen either, so im not sure if even switches automaticly. With the dayversion of this skin, its the first time ive ever had anything different in the skin paths.

2.what version of winamp are you using. To set this up the proper way, you should first save all 5 slots before you try to cycle through them. When you click the button, if it currently says 1 it will load slot 2, not 1. Its the current status.

I can make another video showing how to set this up also, for others that may be a little confused as to how it works. also, your playlist path in RRConfig must be set properly too. When you click the PLIST button, you should be able to see all of your playlist you have saved that are visible to RR. If you dont see anything there RR isnt seeing your list correctly.

I just happened to see this post, and put 2 and 2 together. I couldn't figure out why some of the programs I am using, are now displaying italics fonts. Thumbs Plus is one such program. I noticed this must have happened a few days ago, and didnt know why. That was about the time you IM"d me the new LSVoid to test out the installer and all for you.

I have went into system properties and such, and still cant figure why some programs are displaying fonts correctly, and some in Italics. I will have to d a little more searching, now that I have figured where it started from.

Oh, I am running Media Center 2005 edition Rollup 2, with English.

Just curious if you could advise...

Thanks --

blue bubble? i dont see anything blue.

if your talking about the red rings and yellow highlight circle that follows the mouse, thats just apart of the screen capture utility so you know when im clicking on something vs just mouseing over it.

thats the same OS im running, its just weird to me that it would happen to some people and not others, specificly me. Ive been using that font for at least 2 months with no problems. There is another version of the font here, so if you can grab it and see if it fixes it let me know.

So far one person says it does fix it, and one says it doesnt.

Is it possible to use FreeFone & nRoute(Garmin GPS) for this skin?

Cheers!

there is a standalone version of FreeFone available here
http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/software-software-development/93243-freefone-standalone-alpha-1-1-released.html
you can just embed it easily using one of the FREE5x buttons, click and hold any of the buttons on the main menu, on the 3rd screen you'll see FREE5x buttons, choose that and go into setup. Check the demo video for a step by step of that feature.

ive never used nRoute and likely wont be adding additional gps support,
currently it supports iGuidance,2,3 (not 3.1 yet),freedrive,mapmonkey out of the box by just chooseing them by click and hold (just like above).

When you click on "option" or "opt", it allows you to change certain feature of the audio skin. On page one, it give you the option to switch skin and etc. if you scroll to page 3, there is one button without any label on it, and same for page 5. on page 5, there are several buttons without any label on it. Also, what version of flash should i be installing to get the visualization on the audio to work? I like the equalizer visualization. i hope i made some sense to you.
i guess i should wait for the "how to" guide that's coming soon. thank you for all the work you put into this.

What i mean is i like the way the older version was laid out with the audio but i like the options with the new. Reason being i have a 4x7 screen and its a little tight trying to manipulate the screens while moving. I would just stick with the old but i love the other veatures that you have in v2.0

The old version of the audio player is still available and with some of the new features. To get to it, click and hold on your current button that is AUDIO, when the custom command screen comes up go to page 3 and pick "Audio old" and now your audio screen will be like the old layout. Not all of the new features are supported with the old layout.
