Does the text appear in the radio text (RT) field
in the RDS MAX 2.0 windows driver?

You are using latest version, yes?

Hi,

I am experiencing the same thing. RT is truncated but it seems to me that a large number of blanc caracters are added at the begining of the string. I am using the latest driver available from the support section. The file is generated from a home made software. There is no fancy caracter and no CR LF at the end of file. The preview display is OK, all caracters are shown.
I want to add that I experience some kind of trouble when updating PS name from a separate file c:\RadioName.txt. Once again the preview display is OK and properly updated but no changes are made on the receivers. Forcing send data by click on Send button does not update anything. My PS info are shorter than 8 car so I do not activate the "Split into 8 PS..." option.

One last question, there is a time preview but it seens that no time data are send by the RDS Max V2 as no time are available at my receiver.

Best regards
Chris

Time is not sent to the encoder, CT is not supported at this time.

I'll look at the problems you're reporting and hopefully issue
an update in the next few days for you guys to verify.

Stay tuned.

Ok, the fixed installation is being uploaded to the server as I type
this, should be up in about 15 minutes.

This is a fix of the above mentioned bug plus a few beauty
enhancements.

only 1/4 of the RT data was being sent to the encoder, this
has been fixed now.

Enjoy and send more feedback so we can remove any bugs!

Just updated again!

1.) That about was supposed to look like that, I kind
of like it that way.

2.) Only happens in systray. I'm not sure why.

3.) I've added "move to systran at startup" option,
I'm sure many will appreciate this. This was per request
of one of the beta testers, thanks Christian!

4.) Fixed a couple errors, reported by Christian!

I think its pretty decent now, have fun and thanks for your
support! This is a wrapup now untip RDS MAX 3.0 comes out.
