FMS Questions; help
« on: May 14, 2010, 04:07:06 PM »
I am starting to work with FMS - Thanks JdGordon for this great feature.  It is much appreciated.

I have a couple of questions.

First question refers to the FMS code snippet below (for display of the prior/next preset frequency and description):

Quote
# Previous Preset - Number
%V|100|100|75|8|0|FFFFFF|000000|
%Vp|-1|Prev: %Tf||

# Previous Preset - Text
%V|100|112|75|8|0|FFFFFF|000000|
%Vp|-1|%s%Tn||

# Next Preset - Number
%V|100|130|75|8|0|FFFFFF|000000|
%Vp|1|Next: %Tf||

# Previous Next - Text
%V|100|142|75|8|0|FFFFFF|000000|
%Vp|1|%s%Tn||

When I am tuned to a middle preset (all except the first and last preset) everything displays perfectly.

When I am tuned to the last preset, I see the prior preset information; the next preset information is blank - again this seems to be perfect.

However, when I am tuned to the the first preset, the information  displayed in the "prior" area is what is contained in the first preset (and not blank).  Am I doing something wrong?  Is there a way to blank this out (I am at the first preset and there is no prior)

Second question.

Does album art work on the FMS?  If so, what should the file name be, and where should the file be located.

Thank you for the assistance.

I'll have a look at the first issue, it could be a bug.

Radio art is coming and will probably be in svn over the weekend.

Using PMs to annoy devs about bugs/patches is not a good way to have the issue looked at.

Thanks for the Radio art.

With regards to the other issue, the behavior is different now.

At the first preset, the last preset in the list is displayed as the prior.

At the last preset, the next is blank...

Does my explanation make sense?

Thanks,

Certainly - thanks and have a good night.

If the second comment (regarding zero appearing on the fms tag the first time on the simulator), got through before editing, never mind.  On the actual device, it works perfectly.  Another OOTH (one of those things) that is not perfect on the simulator.

Thanks again for making rockbox better all the time!

me likes easy fixes :)

edit: because presets arnt like a playlist it makes sense that the list should wrap. So what I've done is make it work. but so it doesnt look stupid, It should only show as many presets as you have if the viewport is big enough to hold more (i.e you wont keep seeing the list repeated if the list would fit more than once in the viewport)

Makes total sense (the playlist wrap).

I had another question related to the recent wps enhancements.

Specifically, for the new progressbar like treatment for volume and battery level, is there a way to display a "marker" or special graphic at the boundary?  For example, have a little circle, triangle or line indicator at the leading edge of the progress bar.  This could also be used on the fms progress bar to make it look like a radio tuner.

I did not see anything indicating that this would be possible, but I though I saw something in the IRC that discussed this, so I though I would ask.

I believe there is a patch that adds that, but no, you cant do it in svn yet.
