MLPanel for pvrx2 - alpha testers wanted...

[ACTCMS]

I'm looking for a few hardy souls to try out an alpha version of MLPanel for pvrx2.

Intended to be an alternative to the standard Screen Saver, MLPanel displays Album Art and stuff while you are playing music (skin by Jaggy).

You don't need to be a Music Library2 user - it works fine with the standard Music Library and Net Radio doesn't break it.

Anyone interested please PM me with an email address. It would be useful if you let me know what you use to listen to music with pvrx2 - ML, ML2, Net Radio or whatever else...

Tried to email you but message was returned unroutable

sorry just got round to testing your panel tonight

when it is activated it prevents MusicLibrary2
from loading probably a clash between the dll for track details

I'm using pvrx2 1.2.9 and Musiclibrary2 7.2

[psycik]

if you've got both ML2 and MLpanel, they share the Interfaces.dll. You may want to put either Mlpanel in with ML2 (just copy the MLpanel.dll to the MusicLibrary2 directory) or, move the interfaces.dll to plugins\common.

I doubt the systems will like two copies of the same dll.

[Fatman_do]

I think this may be due to the Interfaces.dll being in several folders. Make sure you only have one in the gbpvr\common\ folder and no others.

This has been my experience.

Edit: Psycik posted while I typed, honest....

ACTCMS can please fix your email so that it sends the domain too?

[Fatman_do]

His PM is working fine. I can send you his email addy if you PM me.

Edit: I see he is on the forums now so maybe he'll respond to you.


P.S. I'd like the latest version if there is one more recent with the updated skins.

[ACTCMS]

I doesn't appear to be quite as simple as that - at the moment, MLPanel and Music Library both work fine for me and I have interfaces.dll in the following folders:

\Plugins\Common - ver 7.0.2955.29256
\Plugins\MLPanel - ver 7.0.3005.19591
\Plugins\MusicLibrary2 - ver 7.0.3005.19591

I'll need to speak to Psycik some more to try to get this fixed...

I thought I already had fixed that Martin, I'll go check again...

Hmmm... That is what fixed it for me, or maybe it was due to a copy being in the gbpvr root directory as well?

I did it all at once so maybe that was it?
