Title: XXHE 0.9z-8-1: Win7 taskbar not returning (after quitting unattended play)
Post by: nik.d on January 19, 2013, 10:46:48 pm
Peter hi,

Returned OS to 'normal' and installed/registered z-8-1 w/out problem. While in unattended and after hitting Alt-S and Alt-X commands
all I get back on screen is Library window opened. No taskbar, no desktop icons, have to restart PC for that.

The other thing to report: cover art is not showing but XXHE logo instead.

Started z-8e again - complained somewhat on Win state but no other issues, normally returns desktop on stopping/exiting unattended.
Here again, no cover art but XXHE logo shown.


Thks in adv.

Hi George,

Did you install that W7Shell mentioned in the Release Notes ? You mention nothing of it, so I guess you didn't ?

Regarding the Coverart ... must be you somehow. Switched it off in settings (well, didn't switch it on ?) or play from a structure which doesn't allow for it ? But really nothing changed regarding this.

Let me know.
Regards,
Peter

Hi Peter,

No, have not installed W7Shell - I'm still running Win7.

And definitly coverart is not related, it is album's photo file size. Tried z-8e with some new album and got the same: logo iof album photo/coverart: All my albums
contain 1 photo named 'Folder.jpg' with dimensions of 600x600 pixels. If file size is more than (not sure here) ~160-170kB, XXHE is not using it for wallpaper but
XXHE logo instead. Easy to solve - will reduce .jpg's quality :).

No, you should reduce nothing George. But I can't imagine what has changed. With what version was this still okay ? (you don't need to sort it out, but if you just know it ...)

But what about that black screen now (Taskbar not coming back) ? Something sure changed there ...
Just tested it myself on W7, and you are correct ... Sh*t.

For those suffering from this (which should be anyone using Windows 7 or earlier and use Unattended with shut off Desktop Services), below there's a 0.9z-8-1a version of XXHighEnd.exe. Paste over your current 0.9z-8-1 version (and only that one !!) is sufficient.

The original download (http://www.phasure.com/index.php?topic=2441.msg24736#msg24736) of 0.9z-8-1 has been adjusted for this as well (for those who did not download 0.9z-8-1 this will suffice, and below additional download will NOT be necessary).

That was fast. Thank you Peter, all OK now.

... Sh*t.
:smack: And how many times I have to repeat: it is not Schiit, I'm proud owner of Phasure NOS1 !!! :rofl:

Coverart - below is the original (kB & pixel size) 'folder.jpg' that XXHE didn't like to convert to wallpaper. Have noticed in
several previous XXHE versions, could be even z6, but thought it's related to my older&cheap but passive graphic card...

BTW: give a listen to below album. At least in lazy Sunday afternoon...
