[ACTCMS]

Please post any comments, suggestions or details of any "Undocumented Features" here.

ACTCMS, given the problems I've had with MPanel and ML2 can you explain once again how to install interfaces.dll safely so that both apps work.

Thanks,

Martin

Music Library2 and MLPanel both install Psycik's Interfaces.dll in their own plugin folders. The problem seems to happen when the versions are different. Moving the most recent version of Interfaces.dll to the Plugins/Common folder and removing all other copies works.

Upgrading to Music Library2 version 7.2 before installing MLPanel Beta works fine.

I'm running Interfaces 7.2 according to ML2 7.2 and I haven't had any success so far running with these instructions. I will wait for some success stories.

Oh snap!!

CommunitySkin users that experience a problem may want to copy the blue skin version over the CommunitySkin version since I totally spaced out updating it this weekend with the latest pre-release.

Hmm not sure if the lack of messages from non Alpha testers in here is good or bad....or we caught all the bugs (oops undocumented features) in testing....or they all HATE it & have deleted it from their systems :confused:

Law of negative returns. Usually you hear feedback only when there are problems.

A vast majority of plugins (and skins!!!) start with very little feedback. I saw hundreds of downloads for the CommunitySkin in the very beginning, but not a peep. I really believe there are many users that do not visit the forums, or if so, have not registered an account.

If I was a "music guy", I certainly would use this since it adds more to the gbpvr music playback experience. Album art, track info, all the info that the default install does not apply.

Once you put this on the wiki, you can see download counts and get a better feel for attachment rates.

Looks like 1.2.13 has broken the standard (not playing) screen saver....first time I tried GB just exited (closed completely) next time it displayed but only the time, not the logo. All seems OK when playing music though.

Actually the "time only" SS looks kinda good & I think we should add it as another selectable option

I think I have found a minor bug in the mlpanel screensaver

I'm running gbpvr 1.2.13 with the beta of Mlpanel and musiclibrary2 6.7 on an MVP

I always use a random playlist which auto continues when the playlist has been completely played.

when the last track of the playlist is playing, on one of the screens which shows the next track to play [it was number 7 I think]

the next track was shown as "last track of playlist" or words to that effect despite the fact that musiclibrary2 had already added the next batch of tracks to the playlist.

Once the track was finished the correct next track was once again displayed.

As I say its a very minor bug but it would be nice to see it fixed

Looks like actcms needs to poll the action playlist collection from PluginHelperFactory and maybe implement IEventNotification to get notified about a new track started playing...
