tnx for the help. appreciate it.

Not to clutter up the MP3Car forums with the Home Automation stuff, you can check out CocoonTech.com's forums. It is as good and helpful of a forum community that you find here at MP3Car forums. I have been on those forums personally for like 5 years now.

i'll start with cocoontech.com - thanks

Before my idiot question, just wanted to say; You're the man!

Anyhow, you had the psd for the XM fav's up on johnwpb.com before the newest version. Is there a corresponding psd for the updated skin? I modified the old one with my fav xm channels and updated the channel images but the old psd template won't work real well with the new transparent skin Can you post the newer psd?

Thanks again for all your work!

2 things left to do.....

OK, I have the skin all configured the way I want, I have the traffic cams working, IG3 is hacked so it looks better, everthing is just the way I want it except for two things I can seem to figure out....

I am trying to set up the spectrum analyzer and the help file says to transfer the digitalfx folder from the spectrum analyzer folder into winamp. Well when I open my spectrum analyzer folder the only thing in there is a bunch of .avs files, no digitalfx folder to transfer. I even re-downloaded the whole Digital FX 2.0 installer program and re installed it incase I missed an update. Still no go. What am I doing wrong??

Another problem I am having is the station art for the fm radio stations. Where does it go? I know it needs to be named for the frequency and not the call letters, but what folder does it go in? Or do you have to make a folder to put it in?


Thanks for all your help....I'm almost there...

onlinestatus not working?

Perhaps I missed a post but it seems that my online status label is no longer working? Even though I hit my wifi connection and am online, the label won't show on the main screen. Anything going on with this?

I am having the same problem.Sometimes it is there and sometimes not. If I switch to another skin like BMV2 or Blue Devil it shows up fine. Switch back to DigitalFX and its gone...(sometimes)...

Hope I'm not being a dumbass but where are these lines? I checked all the .skin files that I would think they would be a part of?

are you using large fonts? I've had this problem on my desktop because I've have windows set to use large fonts and it screws up all my skins. You would have to edit every skin file and change the fonts to a lower size to correct it I believe.

Thanks Timmy, never thought about that.

Mind you running normal sixe fonts make it hard to see when on a 7" screen.

I have already modified almost all the skins I use. All give me the chance to customise as I prefer less info on the screen.

Cheers

iGuidance Issues Please Help.

After hours of search to no avail, I am hoping the community can help me as a whole. I am using RR with Digital FX 2.0 and iGuidance 3.0, every time I open GPS from the main screen it does not appear full screen. (see attached) Also, the buttons (zoom in/out, full screen, IG menu, ect do not work. I've installed the IG patch.

any suggestions would be great! Thanks everyone!
