Software Discussion / Some problems with mpxplayer
Last post by admin - June 02, 2005, 11:28:29 PMTry the following:
Go into the BIOS setup and make sure "Plug and Play OS" is set to "No"
MPXPlay can talk directly to the card, but some computers' bioses don't configure the card proprerly. If setting "Plug and Play OS" to "No" doesn't help, you'll need to download/install the DOS drivers for the card.

OBD-II Discussion / OBD Scan software for Multiple...
Last post by admin - June 02, 2005, 11:22:21 PMNo, RealScan was written to communicate with OBD-II interfaces that use the ELM chip. The Multiplex Engineering devices use a different chip, so the commands would be somewhat different.
RealScan is pretty basic. It reads codes, and it clears them. Nothing fancy, but it does what I need it to do.

Software Discussion / Some problems with mpxplayer
Last post by coke - May 30, 2005, 08:27:15 AMHello
I have a Soundcard from Creative Labs. It's a Sound Blaster CT4170.
I have installed the MP3Player like on http://www.mdbudde.de/mp3player" target="_blank">http://www.mdbudde.de/mp3player described.
It is based on mpxplay.
But i have no Display.
I can select none of it, because the program runs on and on.
When I boot up and the programm loads I get not 3 possibilities as normal.
I get 7.
It runs in an endless loop and selects every time by itself one of the 7 possibilities.
mpxplay-sct says: Warning: Couldn't initialize port control (UIR on COM1)! Autodetecting/testing sound card (s), please wait... No Soundkart found! (use-t if you want to see something) Soundkart init failed.
And when I use -t and play a file the cpu is at 99% using.
Can somebody say to me what is here the mistake and perhaps help me?

OBD-II Discussion / OBD Scan software for Multiple...
Last post by Anonymous - May 19, 2005, 03:38:19 PMI am looking at purchasing some OBD Scan software. I have been using a freeware application that does not meet my needs, and I am researching what options exist.
I have an OBD hardware interface I would like to continue to use. The device is the T16-006 from Multiplex Engineering.
Do you have any applications that will work with that hardware?
Thanks in advance...

Last post by matthias - February 27, 2005, 07:15:40 AMI´ve been playing around with the new version. Looks pretty good. But one general question.
I never understood how to use the search by album, song and artist feature in the menu.
Can you give me an idea?

Lfn doesn´t work on a network drive...
I used Windows the same way, but it was always a pain sitting in front of the LCD display - will this ****ty OS start or not... LOL

Lfn playlists should be working now, eliminating the need for adding a bunch of entries to fileinfo.cfg
For the audio files, though, it still uses the short names. If I were to add support for lfn audio files, it would involve making a number of changes to mpxfdb.pas Heck, at point I'm not sure what half of the functions in mpxfdb.pas do.
Congratulations on dumping Windows. Someday I'd like to dump it completely, but for now I use it for transfering files to the player, use VNC to control it remotely, and use the Windows defragger to defrag the drive.

Last post by matthias - February 14, 2005, 06:21:45 AMHey, this looks like a hugh step:
; Use Long Filenames
UseLFN=True
I´ll try that as soon as possible. I´m a little bit busy at the moment. My 5 month old daughter needs a lot time ;-)
But I was already able to make a DOS based Wireless Lan Version of my MP3 player. Works pretty good and stable. No more Windows, no more handling music files on the player and I can access the player via FTP and can control it by a remote tool similar to PCAnywhere.

I have another test version ready. I'd tell you what was in it, but that would spoil the surprise

Hint: Look under [player settings] in mpxt.cfg
Anyway, when you get the chance, let me know how it goes. If it seems fairly solid, I'll call it "Beta 3" and post it on the web page.

I´ve made it!!!
MPXT and MPXPLAY now goes Wireless.
Dos and a Cisco WLAN card are fully working now.
Pretty cool ;-)
