Conductor experiences

[Freebird]

In the screen resolution screen select make text and other items larger or smaller. Make sure it is set to 100%. My Win 7 HD gaming laptop came defaulted to 115% at 1633 X 768.

Thanks  that fixed that issue,  My font selection was set to "Larger"  once I set it back to normal it worked.  So this can be removed from the conductor issues and be labeled as " Freebird's Duh Moment"

glad to hear it was a simple fix.

Verified the sync issue is resolved with a know trouble unit on a seqence I could replicate it with on it.

Added the ability to jump to the new song in a show.
Added the ability to jump back one song in the show.
Added the ability to restart the current song from the beginnning.
Modified the Volume control system to allow volume to be adjusted while the show is playing.
Working on the ability to create different schedules and choose which one you want to be used from the control panel.

Anyone tried the circuit I posted here You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login
to see if it resolved their fm transmitter issues?

Anyone at all? Need someone to try it for me so I know if this solves the issue.

I almost have the multiple schedule setup done in the Conductor. Then we can test this and I can get the slave firmware ready.

Ill see if I can do it for you, need to order the parts so give me a little bit

Other members who said they had problems- zwiller, duane.mosley, rm357, sebjsan in case you want to pm them. I remember one said their problem dissapeared when they moved the transmitter away from the ED. Another said their radio in the garage got interference without the ED being connected to a FM transmitter. Other people said when they connected an FM transmitter the scheduler would malfunction. These are what I saw when I searched transmitter and radio on the site.

No need to PM me.  I have the parts (RS had them) and plan to try today. 

Hope this works since I have a huuuge St. Patrick's display I am waiting to fire up.  j/k    

Singing Shamrock anyone? 

[zwiller]

Would someone care to check my work on this mod? 

Sarcasm encouraged... 

[RJ]

As best I can tell (can't tell the values of the resitors) it looks correct. If it works I will make some little pcbs to clean it up.

Any report on the outcome of the test?

Of course I know why you spec'd the parts in the middle, the resistor leads broke loose when trying to mount back in case.    Got it fixed and mounted and tried using files already on card and no matter what I tried it would not play.  As I reformatted card and went to load from scratch I had some surprise visits and the rest of my free time was spent entertaining... 

On a positive note, no magic smoke, all lit up and appears to be working.  Should be able to get to it tonight.

Make sure to turn the volume up. The people who make the chip created the circuit and said it would lower the volume some so it could require a higher volume.

RJ

[zwiller]

Will do.  I wonder if the audio quality will be effected too...   

[RJ]

No, the resistor just attenuate the signal a little, it is just a circuit to prevent ground loops and feedback. No one that needed it on their projects had any issue with sound quality that I read.
