I am trying to download & configure the Classic Box Skin. It downloads OK, but when I select Tools/Congiguration to change my playlist location as such, I get a message "Line 3005 Error: Cannot Write File". I did change the "Skip Silence ... " tag in Fading first. Is there a specific location that I have to download the Classic_Box executable to inorder for the program to be able to update the settings? The first time I downloaded it, I chose the Silverjuke programs file directory as the download location. Then I tried the C:/Users ... area and that didn't work either. I also cannot run the Update Artist command under Tools. Help! Thanks, David Johnson.

I thank you so much for your quick replay, but I first had time today to try your suggestion and I can tell you it worked perfect. I have used your skin today without problems, and when I play the songs I even like the skin a lot more. This is definitely the skin I will use now. I have bought and used Silverjuke for several years now with the old style jukebox, but this one is really a big improvement, and I am happy to use it from now on.
With my best wishes and thank you for the quick reply...

glad to see that you like this skin. Your mentioned problem is known, and I have found where it is coming from, but I have actually no time to get into the code to establish a new version: But there is a work-around:
The reason for the automatic update is that the skin isn't able to create a playlist-list-database; so at startup it is detecting that the database is missing, and is trying to create the database, but if no playlists are found, no database is created, and so on. If you create a (dummy) playlist, and you tell the skin where it can find this playlist (see two post before 'Directory for playlist'), it should be done.
Hope this will solve your problem.
If not, please let me know, I will than try to find the real reason.

This is very annoying and I like to know if there is a way to stop the update, and only update when I actually makes changes to the music like deleting files or put more files in the directory.

No problem: You only have to tell Silverjuke where your playlists are stored. For this go into the Classic Box Skin configuration (right mouse click, Tools, Configuration):
Enjoy.

This is a great skin! I love it. I am evaluating SilverJuke and am about ready to buy it. One question about your skin though. Playlists are very important to me. Your skin filters by Artist, Year and Genre. But I also see 'Playlist' as a filte subject when I scroll through the modes, but no playlists appear. Is there a particular place to store my playlists created with SilverJuke so that your skin will see them and pick them up? I would love to be able to scroll through my playlists on this Jukebox skin.
Also, (and this is a general playlist question, not partcular to this skin) is there any plans to provide 'import playlists' or 'convert playlist' support for Windows Media Player or RealPlayer formatted playlists? Thanks!

now that the Silverjuke team updated to Version 2.73, I want to post finally also my update of the Classic Box Skin.
- added Version for 1024x768
- the behaviour of the buttons View and Visu changed: While clicking on View is showing now the three well known views from Silverjuke, clicking on Visu is showing either the Silverjuke visualisation or the "Now Playing" view. You can toggle between both by clicking again on View
- You have to confirm the playlist choice before it is loaded and your old list is erased
- some corrections
- Configuration is now under "tools" "Configuration". One day I will update also the configuration.pdf file.
Download via the German forum: .
Have fun
frenchi
I forgot: You need Silverjuke version 2.73 for this skin!!!

this is only to inform you that I'm actually working on the Classic Box 1024x768. It's not finished now, still some work to do, but the frame is established, as you can see.
I do not know how long it will take, but please stay tuned.

One suggestion for decreasing the Vertical Resolution is to take the Filter/View/Auto/Visu buttons and append them to the area containing the Now/Next/End/Display buttons. Then, take the Playback transport buttons, and put them on the right.
You got my vote for next year! :)

ok, beside the fact that main window is not longer central (and with this the skin is in my eyes not balanced) your picture is still 1156 x 993.
Another "problem" is that having only one button column, scrolling through the artist becomes now boring, if you have a lot of Artists (I know some people having more than several thousands)
But I see what you mean. It seems that there is a real demand for the 1024 x 768 size. (BTW: Also from my side, because on my jukebox in the living room I have also 1024x768
).So promise to me that you will give your vote to me next year (@ SilverEagle: the campaign starts early
) , and I will check and play a little bit with it. But please give me a little time, cause I need to do also other things beside Silverjuke scripting (at least my art director thinks so 
).If anybody has an good idea which area can be skipped: help is highly welcome.

Nice to see that you like my skin. I agree using this with a touch screen must be good.
Resolution 1024 x 768: Very difficult. Problem is that the skin has a lot of areas which are only nice, but has no functions, means that the area where information is shown, or where I can place the buttons (in a decent size) is limited, and I'm afraid, that with a resolution of 1024 x 768 there will be no more space for any information.
But if you have an idea how to squeeze the screen (take a screen shot of the actual one, and squeeze it (and cut areas which are not needed) in a graphic program). If the result is fine, I will be pleased to do it. Openly spoken: I've tried this, and the result was bad, too bad to continue. I've scrapped it. But perhaps you have a better idea.
frenchi.
