Hello Gloern,

The script definately needs improvement in some points, so dev is ongoing. But my time is limited and so the recent progress is very slow.
I appreciate your comment and will have a look in this direction. Thanks.

It will run on all systems capable of running perl. So Windows is also possible.

Hello,

Thanks for the great software - runs out of the box (err. ZIP-file) on my uNSLUng NAS server. I am happy

Any recommendations how to run it automatically after boot?

It is no problem to show the date as well. Just edit the t4roku.pl file at the line 543 to show more: $display->msg(text => substr(localtime(time), 11, 5), duration=>0, font => 1, x=>20, y=>0, keygrab=>0); Either you do it by yourself, or give me some time to realize it in th...

If the Roku is in "standby" and t4roku is running, the display shows the weather. You have to press "Power" twice on the remote to switch the soundbridge on. Is that the problem you had? CU Goemon PS: I am working on a "play similar artist as current artist" feature - s...

Hello everyone, I had another look at the 100% load problem after the Rokus power supply is turned of. Indeed the CPU usage does not jump to 100% immeadetly, but after some time (10mim or so). So far I did not find the origin of this behaviour. I think there is something simple missing - but can not...

Hello Fukkes,

I am arround here, too. And as tools4roku started a little different from what it is now, it was discussed here:

Hello folks, I've added some more lines of code to the Tools4Roku and put the update online at http://billiatjapan.netfirms.com/Tools4Roku/ . The new version makes song rating possible with the remote from your couch! Just press the "right" or "left" key to rate the currently pla...

Hello folks, I got my hand on this request. I just finished a new version of my Tools4Roku, which now allows you to rate the songs via the remote control. You need perl and sqlite to use the tools4 roku. Maybe it can be adapted to WMP libary, too. It uses the Left and right button, that are not assi...

Hello everyone, I was contacted by mail some days ago for my Tools4Roku software and the possibility to add a song rating option. I thought of that before, but did not see any possibility to realize it. Now I have a new idea: The FireFly Database is a SQL-based file, isnt it? So if I can modify the ...

Hello, I spent some time on the PC today. The result is an update of Tools4Roku. Following changes were done: :D made variables for all used strings (for easier localisation). :D move icon drawing sub call to end of output, optical Roku looks more responsive. Thanks to mic_hall for this idea. :D loc...

Hello gouldinio, You may change the drawing procedure to your wish and use the big font. Have a look at sonichouse' blog (the post above yours). There you will find some lines of code that changes the displayed information for a set time. Hello mic_hall, hello fizze, I can confirm the problem - neve...

Hello, I have incorporated the alarm feature in my current Tools4Roku - so I can access it fully from the remote control (3xHome, Select Alarm in the appearing menu :-) ). So I can use the Alarm when ever I like without need to hack into to SB via Telnet. to Roku: Please do not deactivate this featu...

Hello, I just posted this message in another thread. I put the t4roku version with the menu online. The procedure is really simple - as a newbee in perl the code may look far from perfect but is easy to read, maybe you can reuse something for your menu project.
