I didnt know where to squeeze that button in somewhere, so I put it in the best place I could think of. In the next release, if you Press and HOLD the GPS button on the main menu, it will bring up the GPS Gas screen.

That will work, thanks.

One more comment, in the web browser the OSK never puts what I type into the URL box. Usually I only get the last letter. I'm using Firefox too. I think this may be more of an RR config issue since I've seen this with other skins too. Any tips to solve that would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Z

Perfect, I would like to do that too...specially moving the GPS Info and weather button to the main page and move radio and SAT radio on the second page.

How did you do that ? I would like some pointers

JohnWPB,
Can you please add the command X,Mp3Art to the menu.skin so that we can use guino's embedded mp3 art dll from here? I would really appreciate that for the next update, since all my art is embedded & I haven't set up the directory thing. It is also really handy for one hit wonders...

i'm having problems with full screen visualizations. When I double click on visualization screen (on music player window), it minimizes RR and shows a blank screen for few seconds and then goes back to desktop (with RR minimized). In regular window visuals work fine.

You beat me to it. I am using milkdrop with the recommeded setting and I am having this same issue.
btw, what would be really cool would be an almost full screen vis skin with audio controls.

Ok, It has been added. You will still need to register the dll with RegSvr32 for it to work.

I am not sure what the problem is, as it work fine here. It may be your settings in Road Runner Config for the window name or one of a couple other things. Check the help file, under "How to I..."/Use Visualizations.

Wow, this is awesome. Thankyou so much for this skin. I have used this skin for about a day now and I am so happy with it. Quick question though. To get the flash gauges working i need a port splitter correct? Then just use RR's port for one and my iG for the other?

One thing I really wish we had was Sling Player integration. I would love to have the ability to play my Tivo on the carpc over my phone's connection, inside RR.

Thanks in advance!

SangreDeThor · 11-03-2006, 04:43 PM

yes Joey, i use Xport3 for that.

SangreDeThor's correct, I use Xport myself. I have also included a new section in the Blue Devil help file covering this in detail.

I should have the next update done in the next day or so. This update will include an instaler that gives you the option of overwriting the skins & images (If you have altered them you would not want to overwrite your work). It will then just install the helper files and automatically register them.

If you choose to overwrite, it will install everything either for the first time, or overwrite all files with the updated version. This will NOT overwrite your screen settings in the general.ini, the ImageView path to your pictures, or the pin code for the Screen Lock utility if you already have altered those files in any way.
