iMON VFD/LCD MiniDisplay driver for MediaPortal 1.1.3/1.2.1 (2 Viewers)

[azzuro]

Where is that source code originating from

from the 1st post
my work was only to adapt change available on 1st post to MP

Question?
I use this version of the Minidisplay on a Antec Fusion Remote Black. I got a LCD display, but only got 1 line even if the config say 2 lines.
Is it any other here that got the same Antec but has 2 lines with it?

 

[azzuro]

no, 2 lines working only with "old" imon drivers with name "soundgraph 29-11-2009"
an other topic is available for this : https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/minidisplay-imon-vfd-lcd-setting-without-api.120042/
the only thing is to ask Soundgraph for adapt API and use 2 lines also on LCD

OK. Thanks for the clarification...

Alright so is there any clear guidelines as to what I want to get a clean copy of Windows 7 + Media Portal + iMon to play nicely?

I can see that this new driver is almost getting pulled into the source, but what is the best option now? And what about remotes?

(sorry to hijack this thread)

Hi all

I've followed this thread through and installed the release.rar files from #319. All seemed OK except the minidisplay option has now disappeared from configuration->plugins. I did disable it earlier during testing but I didn't expect it to disappear from the list.

Any ideas how to get it back as I think the rest of it is now correctly set up.

I'm using the latest imon 8.2 driver with an imon lcd in an antec case for the record. The display currently shows the time as configured by the imon manager etc so the hardware is working fine. I've also tried a complete power off and restart of the PC.

Any pointers appreciated.

Cliff

Try copy back the original "MiniDisplayLibrary.dll" file... that comes with the installation of MP.
If the configuration comes back, there is maybe something wrong with this release?!?

Thanks for the suggestion, I tried that first as it happens and still no luck. I'm faced with either a reinstallation or a system image restore unless I can track this down.

Have you switched to advanced view in configuration?

That was it!

Now I feel really silly. But at least I won't make that mistake again (I hope)....
