I just added an 80gig drive to my empeg, and when I re-installed Hijack, emphatic took over the hijack menu button. So whenever I hold the rotary button, it switches the emphatic displays, instead of accesing the hijack menu. I looked in the emphatic xml, but couldn't find any settings for that. When I quit out of emphatic and hold the rotary button, it acceses the hijack menu like normal.

Thanks for any help, and thanks for this great app.

That's how Hijack works. When an app (in this case, emphatic) is running in the foreground, the Hijack menu is unavailable. I asked for a mechanism for bringing up the Hijack menu from a user application, but did not have my wish granted.

If you want to go into the Hijack menu, you can select the "Hide" option in the emphatic main menu, which will temporarily put emphatic in the background, and put you in the Hijack menu. Once you're done with the Hijack menu, you can go back and select emphatic again to bring it to the foreground.

Ok, so I guess I just thought I was able to acess hijack, the last time I had emphatic installed, but I actually wasn't.
That shows, that I actually don't even need the hijack menu that often.

Is anyone able to get the track number displayed? I tried the text attribute "number" like it says in the .dtd, but it didn't work.
Thanks

Hmm. Honestly, though I'm sure I tested track number out at one time, I don't use it myself... So it's possible I broke it at some point. I'll look into it.

Link dead?

Is there anyone interested in performing upgrades/hacks for cash? I'm sure there are others like myself who don't have the time and/or aptitude for programming but think having lyrics displayed would be really cool. I might even find the time to do simple things like time coding songs but only after I have a stable bug free system.

emphatic comes with an installation script. It's really not that hard. You should just try it.
