#359612

Awe3som3 job man!!

#359636

!!!!!

hot sh......oot

i supplied the resources :cool:

#359640

Nice, I've been seeing this in alot of OSX desktops (if I remember clearly). Thanks!

#359642

OMG... IT IS DONE!!!! yeah!

#359644

Woah it looks better than on mac

#359647

This looks great.. but it's acting up on my computer. It lags extremely, and when the album art slides down it's like it's struggling to sqeeze itself out of underneath my taskbar... and takes like 10 minutes...or is it supposed to do that?

#359660

I'm having animation problems and when I play video with itunes it freezes on me.

#359694

I seem to be having the same problem as taijutsushinobi is as well as a few other ones after a reboot. Whenever I click on anything, nothing happens (album art window is static, control buttons do nothing). When I flip the desklet and fiddle with the album art setting, it doesn't save.

It appears to be a problem with AveScripter though since the iTunes desklet that comes bundled with it doesn't want to work either. AveTunes has no problems whatsoever though.

EDIT: I just closed the desklet and got the following error message:

"Access violation at address 0000003C. Read of address 0000003C."

Using it now, great stuff my friend...

#359724

Uhmm Lovely!!

#359728

For people with problems: update AveScripter (www.avedesk.org)

#359749

If you don't mind and you want the better speed.. you need to get the beta version of scripter..

The next update/beta will be released will be even faster. I'm hoping to release it soon, but trying to fix all little issues and adding some new stuff too.

#359771

ah ha! thx pcm! andreas forgot to mention that the latest beta was needed. works like a champ now!

wow, andreas...awesome desklet, thx!

#359783

oh and i try to download the beta version but I dont see a link to it I only see 1.0 .1.1.

#359784

You should now be able to get beta file without registering.

Thinking forcing people to register was useless for beta access..

A new beta will be released soon(week or so).

stinkytwinkie: Its possible that your script engine of Microsoft is disable/unregistered. Check the AveScript log and see if it says that.

If so do the following in your run command

regsvr32 msscript.ocx

Works like a charm now, thanks!

#359799

It's awesome...thanks Ave!

Is there a way to hide iTunes while using this?

The minimize button usually helps
