custom text

great job...

the only thing i can think of is to be able to have custom text messages that can come up randomly, or if a key is pressed (this would be great in the double window mode using dual monitors) being able to edit/add text on the fly would be an added plus!

keep up the good work!!

Yeah, I would like that too. It would be good to have more control over the timing of the titles or custom msgs too (ie. popping up every 45 sec, for 5 sec) or something. I know I have mentioned this before but hopefully it would be relatively easy to do?

One way I would really like to see this implemented: hit a button(don't know what you'd use, doesn't matter) and you get a prompt in non-fancy font at the top of the screen. You type in the message you want, and it gets output via the warpy text mode, with automatic line wrapping.
This would be really good for VJ mode at a concert or something - you could send messages that someone left their headlights on, or send birthday greetings, or ads for sponsors, etc.

I think that's an excellent idea Krash, it would be great... also a little more control over the warping (ie. to keep it moving when you set a long time for the title animations, as it tends to stop).

But setting custom msgs... maybe set them to 1 through to 9, then press CTRL + key (CTRL + 1, CTRL + 7 etc.) to bring them up on screen?

This would be a really handy feature...
