Did you actually convert the 78.mp3 into a wave file (not just changed the .mp3 to .wav)?

The only problem I seem to have is that no matter what I set PreSongDelay to, the music starts right away.

Really?  Hmm.  Can you set DebugLevel=3 and run it for a few minutes, then send me the log and the skin file?  DebugLevel3 will show all the message queue activity and all the log entries are timestamped so I can see what's going on.  Also, make sure your PreSongDelay is in a section called [Timers]; if the section header is missing the value won't be seen.

I looked at the log and I guess you put a 1000 limit on PreSongDelay.  Perhaps a 32000 limit instead?  I needed about 1200 and then tried increasing it to 2200 and both started instantly.  If I set it for 1000, I get a delay but not long enough.  I am trying to use Dynamite91's 45 jukebox recording.

You want it to wait 12 full seconds before a song starts?

Yes, all the delay timers currently have an upper limit of 1000; I can certainly increase it. Right now, if your value is out of bounds, it changes to the default setting; I should probably change it to clamp to either the upper or lower limit, whichever was exceeded.

Or how about a percentage?  Have the music start after x% of the presong sound effect has played?

The messaging system that drives the jukebox doesn't know what the GUI is doing with the messages, so it would not know if there even is a pre-song sound effect, let alone how long it is.  It just throws the messages into the GUI's message processing queue, most of which are ignored.
