OK, I've got this working pretty well. If you set the maximum offset to
a very high number, the plugin will automatically detect when the text
reaches the edge of the screen and reverses direction at that point. No
more sticking at the side of the screen! It also now functions properly
in single l
Thanks! I did download the server source code so that will at the very
least help with relearning plugin programming. In the long run though, I
think it might be advantageous to not leave centering up to the server
and instead programmatically determine line lengths and then pad as
appropriate wit

Well, it looks like there is nothing wrong with the FuzzyTime code with
regard to positioning the text on a slimp3. The bug is actually in the
slimp3's centering logic when you give it a string padded with spaces on
the front - the spaces just get chopped off. If I change the padding to
underscore
I took the first step tonight. I figured the code out enough to change
it so that it updates once per second rather than once per text change.
:) Next I'll probably figure out why the plugin doesn't work right on
the slimp3.

Nope, that's perfectly fine and understandable. I'm just super happy
that it exists at all. I'm a software developer so knowing the code's
available, I might just have a look at some point (with what little time
I have :)). One thing I noticed is that on first glance it appeared to
not work at all

Hmm, I'm thousands of miles away from my SBs right now or I would look
at my FuzzyTime settings and let you know what I have. But I have a time
display, without seconds, that just creeps back and forth across the
screen almost imperceptibly, with no "sticking" at the edges.

Cool. Thanks for the clarification! This is perfect. I did send an email
to the author with a couple of requests. It's pretty hard to figure out
the maximum shift, and if you pick too large a value the display will
"stick" to the left or right side for a while before reversing
direction. It makes
I don't recall if FuzzyTime will scroll the time, but it _will_ move the
time display leftward a user-specified number of pixels every X minutes,
and then when it gets to the left edge of the screen, move it rightward
the same number of pixels every X minutes until it gets to the right
edge of the
I don't see anything in the description of FuzzyTime's features that
leads me to believe it can scroll the time. Thanks though.

Look into the third-party FuzzyTime plugin (I don't have the link handy,
but I use this with my SB2 and Classic)

I have an SB1 and it has quite noticeable screen burn which is evidently
from displaying date/time when off. Is there any way, via a plugin or
whatever, to get the date time screensaver to scroll to lessen the
amount it burns the screen over time? I've done some googling and
haven't found anything

You can set the DateTime plugin to be used during playback. Or use my
MusicInfoSCR for more flexibility.

Hi
Is there a setting/plugin that will allow date and time to be displayed
when playing music (e.g. as it does when my squeezebox classic is
switched off)
Thanks

I'm seeing this here and I think I have a fix for it.
Stay tuned.
