Okay, I've fixed the address displays. (It helps if you actually put data into the buffer before you write it to the screen.) I've still got to fix a couple of minor addressing issues and clean up the selection display, but I should have usable (although probably still unatractive) CD skins this week. That means it's almost release time; I'll put out beta 7 for everyone to play with while I hunker down with the new touchscreen.
The CD skins use the same input engine as the rest of the jukebox, so you could do interesting things like use an old-fashioned alphanumeric entry format rather than a keypad, so a CD label card might look like:
2 JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS
A1. 3 Small Words
A2. Pretend to Be Nice
A3. Spin Around
A4. You Don't See Me
B1. You're a Star
B2. Shapeshifter
B3. I Wish You Well
--BINGO! Either that, or I was attempting to say "before" but it was too many letters to type--. Real Wild Child
B5. Come On
B6. Money (That's What I Want)
B7. Josie and the Pussycats
So to select "Come On", you'd enter 2B5.
The same card with a 6-key numeric keypad with UseZero set to Off would look like:
2 JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS
11. 3 Small Words
12. Pretend to Be Nice
13. Spin Around
14. You Don't See Me
15. You're a Star
16. Shapeshifter
21. I Wish You Well
22. Real Wild Child
23. Come On
24. Money (That's What I Want)
25. Josie and the Pussycats
So you'd enter 223 to get Come On.
This all assumes Relative Mode, in which the first album on the screen is disc 1, the second is disc 2, etc. In Absolute mode, each album has its own number, so the label might say:
1142 JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS
11. 3 Small Words
12. Pretend to Be Nice
13. Spin Around
14. You Don't See Me
15. You're a Star
16. Shapeshifter
21. I Wish You Well
22. Real Wild Child
23. Come On
24. Money (That's What I Want)
25. Josie and the Pussycats
So you'd enter 114223 to play Come On, whether or not the album was actually on the screen. The leading 1's or 0's (depending on whether zeroes are enabled) are optional, so entering 4223 would get you the same song. In Absolute Alphanumeric mode, that disc label would be more like AAD2, and entering AAD2B3 or just D2B3 would get you Come On.
Does any of that make any sense?
