CybrDisplay External Status Plugin - Page 6

My IMON Manager: 6.20.830 (Silverstone)
My F/W : iMON Firmware Ver 0x3601
My case : Silverstone LC16M

I cannot get my display to work with the V3 DLL (same symptoms as fetredlwl). The 0x3601 firmware needs the V5 DLL I think. I must use the delay option to get my display to work.

As I mentioned, I also tried the 7.01.0204 version of IMON, but that just made matters worse by locking the remote into mouse mode when Frontview was turned off.

OK, I have not solved the display killing the remote problem, but I did get to the bottom of the IMON device disconnecting and reconnecting as MP, or MP Config were run.

I started looking at my USB devices one by one, and finally noticed that the card reader that came with my case was not working.

The clowns at my local PC shop had put the USB header connector on the motherboard the wrong way around. I reversed the connection, and not only do I now have a working card reader, but the IMON device no longer resets each time MP or MP Config are run. However, it does still reset when Direct X Diagnostics are run.

So I would suggest anybody who does hear / see the IMON device disconnecting and re-connecting should check out their hardware closely. I think it may indicate some sort of problem with a USB device attached to the system.

Cybrmage,

I just installed the new 21-02-08 experimental version but still have the VFD off when exiting a video playback and stay off until I close and reopen MP.

Everything else works really fine and rocks here !

chemelli, would you do me a favor, an try to check the delay driver init... box and try whether your remote still works like it's used to? Maybe that might be the funktion which kills the remote.

fetredlwl,

I will try this evening at home.

Anyone got this to work on a Mstation htpc from 3Rsystems?
Any help would be appreciated.
Maybe you have stumbled across some answers cybrmage since you helped me in the past.

Thankful for any help.

What does the latest driver do with the display... I recently changed the 3Rsystems code due to new information posted in the SoundGraph forums...

Thanks for this great Plugin. I love it. It runs simply perfectly.

I tried and here everything works,

I also updated to 22-02-08b version but the VFD switch off bug after exiting Videos is still there.

CybrMage, can you be so kind to give it a look please ?

Thx CybrMage,

upgraded to 02_23_2008c and now after video file stop I get my VFD back

I only noticed that when I press the play button during a video playback in the VFD only one line appear: "Fullscreen Video". Is this by design ?
