The testing repository can be found here: http://erlandplugins.googlecode.com/svn/repository/trunk/testing.xml The alternative to use the "Settings Remover" applet is to do a Factory Reset of the Controller but that requires you to change ALL controller settings so I wouldn't suggest that you do this unless it's absolutely necessary. If you are familiar with ssh another alternative is to login with ssh and remove the file "/etc/squeezeplay/userpath/settings/CustomClock.lua" and restart, this is what the "Settings Remover" applet does. After that you should be able to reproduce the procedure, like: On the Controller: 1. on the controller "choose player" screen I chose "controller". 2 clicked "screensavers" 3 chose "when playing" 4 "custom clock settings" 5 clicked "config #1" 6 picked "digital clock "white text" 7 Make sure some music is playing 8 make sure screen saver is active and shown On SB server: 9 went to SB server 10 chose player "controller" 11 went to "advanced" and chose "custom clock helper" 12 clicked "style" and select the same style as in point 6 13 Create a new "items" and chose "itemtype" tracktext" 14 Apply 15 In the "text" attribute, enter "ALBUM - ARTIST - TITLE" 16 Apply 17 Adjust the "posx" and "posy" attributes to move the text where you like it 18 Apply In point 14, 16, 18 you should see the screen saver on the Controller quickly blink when it adjust the style accodring to your new settings. I plan to include a bundled style with now playing information in a future version of Custom Clock to make this a bit easier. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) (Install my plugins through Extension Downloader) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=76307 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
