Thanks for the software...... it's fantastic, I been running it on my dedicated juke for a few months now. ( complete envy of everyone who sees it. )
I run your software thru my home entertainment system ( Audio & Plasma Screen ) with the CD cover screen saver feature. In order to get out of the screen saver, I need to hit a key on the keyboard ( spacebar I think). My aim is to run the program with the mouse only, so is there a way to come out of the screen saver by just using the mouse?
I don't want to not use the screensaver as I couldn't live with myself if I got screen burn in on my shiny new plasma.
Also while I'm at it.... has anyone seen a programable remote control that you can use thru your computer to replace the mouse/keyboard actions.
(That would kick ass.)

Yes, moving or clicking the mouse gets you out of the screensaver.
I am looking at remotes at the moment, so if I manage to get it all up & running, I'll put the info on my site. I bought a Creative remote (that is on it's way as I type this) that I am HOPING will do the trick. I also found a couple of programs that will watch whatever COMM port the remote receiver is hooked up to, and will convert that signal to a keystroke & send it to whatever open program you choose. I have a touchscreen, programmable remote already, so then the only thing missing is a wireless remote extender, as the jukebox will be at the other end of the house (with the sound / pictures coming into the TV/receiver via RCA cables running thru my roof) ;)
Anyway, all that's left is to see what this remote receiver will be able to do, then get an extender in place.

If he's using this,

Which it looks like he is then adding an EQ is easy peasy. This is the same OCX ThePCJukebox uses i believe.
I like the album cover scrolling ;) I have just had a quick play, it does seem like it doesn't read ID3 tags correctly though as a couple of albums showed up as TRack01, Track02 etc but i know they are tagged.

OK.. I must have something not clicked... because when I'm in screensaver, the movement or pressing of mouse keys will not do anything... the cursor moves of course... but in order to get back in the program I need to press a key on the keyboard.
So please tell me what I have setup wrong.
Because I have it connected to my entertainment system, I wish to do away with the keyboard all together.

I am using the Light version (it's all I need), so Paypal me the $$$'s to upgrade it to the Professional version and I will add it when I get the time. $100 should cover it if I can talk them into an upgrade price. Either that, or just live without it :P

Which version are you using? Might have been that I fixed that after the version that's on the site.....if you're using the latest version and it's not working, wait for the next version & let me know if it fixes the issue or not.
