A new applet "Text Clock" is now available for Squeezebox Controller/Touch/Radio, it's a screen saver that shows the time as words, for example "quarter past four" instead of "16:15". It's very similar to the great Time Speller plugin available on the Classic/Boom players.
See the following wiki page for more information: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Text_Clock_applet It's installed by going to "Settings/Advanced/Applet Installer" on the Touch, Radio or Controller. In the Applet Installer you will find a "Text Clock" applet which you need to install. You will in Squeezebox Server either check the "Show all 3rd party plugins" checkbox or manually configure my repository, if you don't it won't appear in "Applet Installer". Finally, you will need to select "Text Clock" as screensaver on the Touch, Radio or Controller. It doesn't have a lot of configuration options at the moment, just a stupid setting that decides if the time should be shown on a single row or on three rows. However, with the latest version of Custom Clock which also is available now, you can integrate the time text from Text Clock into any Custom Clock style. So this should hopefully make the customization options really good. I'll get back with more information about how it can be integrated with Custom Clock in the Custom Clock announcement thread. -- 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=79023 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
