Zune LCD
|
Displays important info from Zune on Logitech Monochrome or QVGA display. Zune LCD is an applet to display all important informations from the Microsoft Zune Software on the Logitech Monochrome or QVGA display (e.g. the display used with the Logitech G15/G19 Keyboard or the Logitech G13 and Z10 devices).
It also lets you control the Zune Software.
Installation:
The easiest way to install Zune LCD is to copy all the DLL- and EXE-files to your Zune installation directory (the default path is "C:\Program Files\Zune", it has to be the same directory where the original Zune.exe is located).
If you want to make a custom installation, or just like to know what all the files are for:
1. the 4 GammaJul.LgLcd DLL-files are used to access the Logitech LCD SDK from any .NET language like C# or VB.NET.
2. ZuneLcdApi.dll is my own Zune API to access the Zune Software (it's still in early development, but if you like you can already use it for your own programs to get informations form the Zune Software or just to control the player outside of the Zune Software).
3. ZuneLcdApi.xml this is the public documentation for my ZuneLcdApi.dll. If you add a reference to the ZuneLcdApi.dll from Visual Studio, you are able to read it inside the IDE. It just has to be in the same directory as the DLL.
4. ZuneLcdApiDebug.exe this is my testing application for the Zune LCD API. Feel free to play around with it.
5. ZuneLcdMonochrome.exe this is the actual monochrome applet for the G15, G13 and Z10 from Logitech.
6. ZuneLcdColor.exe this is the color applet for the Logitech G19.
Usage
To use this applet with the Zune software, you need to close the Zune Software (if it's already running), then just start the ZuneLcdMonochrome.exe (monochrome display for the G15 etc.) or the ZuneLcdColor.exe (color display for the G19) from inside the Zune directory where the actual Zune.exe is located. This will start both, the Zune Software and the chosen LCD applet simultaneously.
If you like you can just change the path of your desktop or programs menu shortcut of the Zune Software to ZuneLcdMonochrome.exe or ZuneLcdColor.exe to easily start your application with the LCD applet enabled.
