Another new plugin, LH_DriveStats, is now available. This plugin allows LCDHost to display several bits of data about your local drives, such as Free/Used/Total space and the number of reads/writes per second. It even sports a new pie chart object for the disk space. No pics for this one as I’m not artistic enough to make disk drives statistics look sexy.

Yes, with A21 comes TeamSpeak 3 integration. Due to the impact of a certain baby (naming no names – he knows who he is… well ok, he doesn’t as his sense of self won’t have developed yet), SirReal and I weren’t able coordinate this release as well as we usually do so you’ll have to download it seperately and add it to your plugins folder by hand. There’s also an updated Eos that reacts to launching TS3 by hiding the 5-day weather and big clock and looking like this.
LH_TS3 features:
Alpha 21 is out for both Windows and OS/X. If you’re on the same side of the international date line as me, the autoupdater will handle things for you. If not, download it manually from the homepage.
Besides supporting Triscopic and hacking on the next version on LCDHost, I’m also now a dad for the third time. My two daughters now have a little brother:
Hopefully A20 brings it back to the same level as A18 was. I’m really starting to appreciate the mercurial repository now. It takes a while to get the hang of it, but now it’s quite easy to maintain the LCDHost plugin API5 version you’re all using while hacking on the dev code. I just wish I had named the branch API5 rather than A19.
The autoupdater should already be active for Windows, OS/X to follow soon.
The development version of LCDHost isn’t yet ready to be released, so to avoid A18 from timing out I’m re-releasing it as A19 (with some minor tweaks). For those looking at the source repo, there’s now an A19 branch which will let you pull this particular state of the repository. Windows A19 is already up for download using the auto-updater, and as soon as I’ve packaged the OS/X, I’ll put that up as well and add the manual download links to the homepage.
I apologize for the forum downtime. I foolishly made a configuration change right before going on a military exercise for four days. Now excuse me while I go bash myself in the forehead with a wooden plank.
A quick release to fix the most glaring bugs in A17.
This time the autoupdater should handle things just fine. Or, get it from the LCDHost homepage.
For anyone new to LCDHost, LCDHost is a compositing plugin manager for LCD’s. It’s primarily targeted towards the Logitech G19, but it will work with the G13 and G15 too.
Although A16 introduced auto-updating, because of the huge amounts of restructuring we’ve been coding right up to the wire. That means the A16 will have expired for most people by the time A17 was released and that means the auto-updater won’t be able to run – so if LCDHost does not run for you, please download A17 in the good old-fashioned way.
Here is a list of some of the things that are new:
What’s new in LCDHost alpha 17:
Yes, I know it’s starting to expire… me and Triscopic are working furiously to get a new one out ASAP. Stay tuned.
