Vixen 3.0 Introduction Series - Part 1

[sallz0r]

MiniRDS ... the RDS boards to add RDS to FM Transmitters to send the text to the radios..

If the API is like prior API for plugins, it won't take too long to get new stuff up a running.

Yep, almost exactly what I was thinking! That should be pretty straightfoward -- thinking through what would be needed to support something like a MiniRDS, I'm pretty confident there is the framework there to support things like that fairly easily. Having said that, it's not something the dev team will have time to support for this year -- but a handy community developer will probably be able to pick it up and write a module to support it if they're so inclined!

I would think its very appropriate at this stage to keep the "requests" to yourself for the time being. I am not trying to be rude but let them keep their mind focused on getting the core working.

Yeah, that's true -- but at the same time, it's good to be able to know what users are talking about, and what they want to eventually do with their displays. Having said that, we don't want to get the thread bogged down with 101 feature requests for every man and his dog -- how do you think we can best balance it? Maybe we make a new thread for feature requests that are not directly related to the discussion of the thread?

Go K.C.
I think I am going to cry (at least I will until I get my bastardized Renard driver hooked into 3.0)

I think somebody aught to start a 3.x feature request thread that they would be willing to update the first post once in while with a list of those requests.

This could be a repository that the community can draw from.

FYI, there was a Vixen 3.x Plugin / Feature / Development Tracker thread started yesterday.

As KC said the feature set for Vixen 3.0 is locked in. This thread is meant to introduce those new features, not to open the door to new ones. In general new features are unlikely to make the release.

I know that many others have already said it, but THANKS KC and the Vixen 3.0 team!!

I am really excited to see what the new platform will bring.
