GuiGraphix Designer Library 0026 (Lodge) released

[dwarfer]

Is anyone seeing high CPU usage with the Lodge Library?
Running the latest versions of the Lodge Library and Main Lobby Client im seeing 40 - 50% CPU on a Samsung Q1. I've tried it on a few other clients and im seeing 30% on a slightly better specked Sony Viao Laptop.

When I run the standard 019 scenes im seeing normal low CPU 5-10%.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Had the same issue. My issue was with MLRSS. I did not have the most current version and the home page was causing issues.

Is there any chance to get a theatertek-slider like 0019_0301 for library 0026?

I will contact the designer and see what can be done.

[DavidL]

It would be great to add a vertical slider to both 0019 and 0026.
Just rotate 90 degrees "works", but the target text letters are then sideways.

any plan to update the DMR/DVD/cx777 screens for lodge?

[DaveB]

In general, as commands are updated for the various plug ins that are controlled by the Lodge interface, do you plan on getting Library 26 on a regular revision schedule to stay current with these changes?

The recent revisions to the iTunes plugin are a good example of this, as the iTunes multi-layer approach is more difficult to keep current manually.

ditto it's becoming increasingly difficult to keep library 26 up and especially itunes.....don't have the suggestion "how" but definitely the request "for"

There will be a refresh of the Lodge scenes to get them better in sync with the plugin updates. It is being worked on.

[DaveB]

Thanks Dave;

The challenge will be how to keep all the graphic sets current as you grow the total number of libraries. No at all an easy task.

[DaveB]

Dave - Two questions

1. How is the calendar picture configured? is it using script than matches the picture to the month? also, could that be adapted to do a times picture scroll of the family photo album?
2. Are their any plans to incorporate other backgrounds into the plugin that would match some of the other color schemes of the buttons and controls available.

[CinemarDave]

Look in the mlserver\images\calendar folder. You'll see 12 jpgs named month1 through month12. That's the twelve images. You can substitute your own. Or if you are creative with MLScript you could do something with MLTimer to load a new image every so often from your photo collection. Just point the server variable to your photo.

There will be a significant update to Library 0026 on or about the time the next MusicLobby goes to beta. Don't ask when it will be as soon as possible.

[DaveB]

Yes but when?? Friday, Saturday...Could not resist!!

Hi Guys, any news on the refresh?
I bought the Lodge Scene because (a) im rubish at designing and (b) I have a small baby so don't have the time to tweak things much.
There seemed to be a good run of updates to keep current with Itunes for example but I am now not able to use this schene as its to out of date.

Here's hopin for an updated version soon

[CinemarDave]

The designer has been working on an update. A new release of 0026 will be available with the next release of MusicLobby, perhaps sooner.
