Project PC

[Lib 3.0LR]

I also have attempted to put a PC in my car as Mr Cali did. However, I've had a few issues - nothing major, just some software problems. Here are a few shots. By the way Tai, how did you load your music and videos etc onto the Centrafuse program?

Looks like it is coming along nicely George.

Your car is still as sexy as ever. It's one of the reasons I went to a silver wagon.

I just copied them onto the harddrive, and there is an option in the Centrafuse Settings to set paths to the various media files...

Hi George,

Good to see that you got the bezel painted, looks the goods.

For your touch screen driver use the relevant driver for your operating system from this link http://home.eeti.com.tw/web20/eg/Touch_Drives.html

Also like Hobber has mentioned, in Centrafuse you go to system / settings and go to Music or Video etc and edit. You can then add a directory to where you have saved it on your hard drive.

Thanks Tai and Hobber touch screen works now ,but still no good with music files.I go into the settings screen then to audio/video push setup but no edit,may-be because it's a 30 day trail version it does'nt give me the full opps,got me f.......

[Mr Cali]

I'll have a look tomorrow mate, just did that from memory, will do a step by step for you. The trail version is fully functional, with the exception of gps and Bluetooth

Thanks Tai, also how do you remove the mouse cursor from the scereen.
Cheers George

[Hobber]

I think that is also an option in the settings, or it's a switch you need to add to the startup command line.

I'd suggest you poke around a bit in

For example, you can add switches to the command starting up centrafuse to get rid of the nag screen etc...

Thanks Joel as you can see computers are'nt my strong point
Cheers George

But the end result is fun....However the phone + bluetooth through CF is shite, I recently just purchased a seperate kit for the phone and now the CarPC just does the following

- Media Player
- Sat Nav
- Engine Diags
- POI Search (Google)

To be added DAB+ so radio will come through CF

so if you have a non macintosh audio system, in your Legacy, how do you get the audio from car pc to play through factory speakers? i presume you need something that will give you an aux in for factory headunit?

[CheesyMong]

correct, but I do have a MAC unit with the optional Aux input from Subaru.

There is ways to do it on other units legacygt forum has a heap of posts on how to install an aux input in the non mac models
