It is a fresh install of XP pro sp2. same if not similar setup as on my laptop. The only thing I might not have updated were the flash drivers. To check, I even took the exact same install files from the laptop and tried it and it didn't make a difference.

Only major issue is the lack of integrated GPS and the music blip that restarts the track after 1 second of play. I've also noticed some blips during music play back. Totally random locations, or so it seems.

does it support HORM? (i.e. reloading playlist+current song+current position from a specified location upon resume from hibernation)

Hi CdR, Love freeice and I've been using it since the first release and I must say that it's more stable then RR in some way so I have been using it instead lately!
I have a couple of questions tough!

One of the thins i miss the most from RR is the ability to set the clock from the GPS-Time, for some reason my computer resets the time every restart so right now I'm starting up RR first, wait for it to set the correct time and then switch over to FreeIce. Anyway I was wondering if there was anyway you could add that option?

The second thing is FreeFone, I was using it with the Iphone skin for RR so I downloaded the standalone version, configured a path for it in the ini file and it seems to be working! Is there anyway to get FreeIce to pause the music and switch to the phone as in RR, and maybe also add signal and strength at the top like you have the gps indicators?

oh and just one small question, I love the radio skin and it's working great with my SILAB's stick, I know you was using the same radio before atleast so I'm just wondering if the radio part has support for TI, news etc since thats built into the stick... TI is the single most feature I miss the most since I switched over to my CarPC years ago since I spend a lot of time on the road!

Keep up the good work!

Your computer clock is restarting because your CMOS battery is dead. Look for a battery on the motherboard and replace that. Its a round cell, 3v (I believe) battery. Almost like a watch battery but a little bigger. It will fix the time restarting issue.

Awesome FrontEnd, really stable and good looking.

ALAS, I need support for imported playlists (m3u or wpl). I have a playlist folder that it is in sync with my playlist folder in my desktop, it would be awsome for FreeIce to load my playlists!

Also, can't wait for a fully skinned HD radio support! It is a must!

Congrats again for such a great work!

Question

hi,
I just made up my first carpc. And found that FreeIce has the best looking.
LOVE FreeIce!!!

Now I have some questions after some days of using:

1, I want to know how I can change the weather location to Los angeles California USA...

2, Why FreeIce can't play RMVB files? or do I need some plugins or decodeder program?

3, Is it able to switching the audio chanels when playing dual-chanel media files?

4,how can I add an additional icon to the program? (Such as MSN Messenger)

Thank you.
