i guess PM has deserted this board or got really busy. Either way this is by far the best plugin MC has ever seen. Honestly this should be pick up and licensed by the MC development team to integrate straight into MC.

Just knowing that this plugin is not compatible with MC14, I'm not buying 14. My MC13 is stable and working fine with PM 1.6... and with the Albedo Skin slap on it, this thing shine morning or evening. Every single friend who sees my setup in the screen thinks I have a multi-million dollar program... lol!!!

Oh, By the way, I have one small problem with PM 1.6. The info for some reason now is default to French, only when I click on the British flag in the Biography section then the info switch to english. Anyone is having the same problem or know how to default it to English?

I went to v14 because of the Tremote capability which was well worth it for me but we REALLY miss this plugin.  Would LOVE to get it back into v14.

I have this working in MC14. Sorry, I don't remember how. But it must have been easy, or I would remember! :-\

To change the default language to English, I edited index.html. I think I just changed the order of the lines in the Show selected language section.

See Media Freak's post following.

Additionally the fix in the html file is also to look for line 25 and change: toggle_wikki ('fr') to toggle_wikki ('en').

BTW, which skin do you guys use at most? flow-like or amarok-like? Or a custom one?

PS: I'll have an JRMC14 installer (of a slightly updated version) very soon.

Not sure, but I think I had this problem and fixed it. I can only offer to give you my slightly modded 1.6 which was edited to fit 1920x1080.

Actually, this would be the correct way to change it. On closer inspection, I had missed this, and so just added a line to set language = 'en'. :-[

I'm checking out the Flow skin and it's a bit confusing.

The install pushes a folder into Plugins. In MC13 this means I see Advanced Track Info listed as a unique Display Option next to 3d. Normally track info skins are found under Track Info. Only when I copy the two skin folder to the Viz>Track Info folders can I see the skins, BUT the Flow when just shows a title and one album cover. No "flowing" in MC13 or MC14.

Updated installers.
Took me 5mins to understand that the 4 letters "j r m c" are automatically replaced with "MC" in those forums. And since I had the 4 forbidden letters in my server path, the links were broken. JimH, is it a joke of yours?

Anyone have a clue as to why this would show up as a blank white screen?

This began after I had tried to swap the skins. Even after replacing the original skin folder it is still not displaying properly. I also tried a plug-in uninstall/reboot/re-install/reboot with no luck.
Unfortunately this is on my main media machine in the living room where it was most desired  :(

no error messages, other plug-ins, track info, & visualizations all work fine.

I realize now that I did this once before (swapping the skins) and had the same problem. I do not recall finding a resolve.  :-[

What do I need in order to use lyricsplugin to work?  Nothing comes up when I select it. I clicked the link in your first post and it shows plugins for Winamp and Media Center.

I deleted generated.html and it does not reappear (even after another uninstall/reinstall), same blank white display.  

I downloaded JRMC_AdvancedTrackInfo_JRMC14_1.1 and am using MC 14.0.101, it is working on my laptop with the same versions of both.

I MUST be doing something wrong then.  It worked fine in v13 when it used LyricsWiki.  
It still comes up and appears to default to Lyrics Wiki which obviously shows nothing.  If I select Lycrics Plugin in the drop down I still get nothing.  If I advance to the next track Lyrics Wiki comes up in the drop down box and again selecting "Lyrics Plugin" doesn't seem to change anything.  I presume it should find "I Gotta Feeling" from The Black Eyed Peas...  or Hotel California from THe Eagles?  (The other tabs seem to work fine)

YEA!  That did the trick, Thanks.

Now one last minor problem, the display is about twice as long as my screen so I must use scroll bars to see all of it. Is there a way to shrink it?

You should set "PM visualization" like explained in first post.
Please note the skin was designed with full screen in mind.

OK, fixed the screen shot to show it back in full screen.

I have tried several resolutions from my usual 1024 x 768, then from 1280 x 1024 all the way up to the max of 1920 x 1080. Looks about the same on all of them.

It seems to default to the Lyrics Wiki so initially it doesn't find anything.  If I select the Lyrics Plugin option from the drop down it finds them without issue but it seems I need to do this for every song.  Is it possible to make the LyricsPlugin the default?


Thanks again for making this v14 compatible!  Its awsome!

Hi,
First, thanks for the nice plugin.
I'm not able to display more than 30 pictures in cover flow. Can it handle more? Do I have to change some settings?
Also, is there any way to remove the right side scrollbar?

It *should* save to lyrics tag. Last time I checked it was working.

Edit: v1.2 should fix lyrics related problems and background issue of "PM Visualization.mjv".
