Samurize Help CDCovers + Weather

Hey guys!

Below is a screenshot of my desktop:

Desktop

I'm using AveDesk and Samurize. For some reason, the CDCovers doesn't work properly... It keeps showing the Akon CD cover even when I'm playing all kinds of other songs. What could that problem be?

Also where can I go to download and setup the WeatherMini so I can see the forecast for the next 4 days or so?

Thank you very much!

Let's make sure everything is set correctly...

-Go into the editor, click on the area that shows the album

Under the General Tab:

Make sure the Drawtype is image

Under the Source tab:

1. Choose AdvancedMediaPlayerInfo.dll for the plugin

- click the Global Settings button and check that the covers directory is pointing to an actual folder, this is where the covers will be automatically downloaded to

2. Choose getAlbumCover for the function to run

Under Display tab:

1. the image path should be %v

2. make sure the alpha is 255

3. you should probably uncheck the default image option if it's checked, no need in this case

The miniweather shown is for Konfabulator, someone may have ported is to AveDesk + SysStats. You'll just have to search.

If you're a Samurize user, you'll want Torsius' Weather 2004 plugin and make it yourself. The readme is fairly staright forward on how to make forecasts. You can download the plugin it once Samurize.com is back up and running. There was some problems recently, you can read about the here.
