This means that the WebParser plugin is working well. I'm not sure what I could recommend, maybe try to uninstall Rainmeter, then install it again. However I'm not sure at all this will help.

Maybe I'm wrong, however, I looked at the code and, for me, there's something I don't understand in how it's designed.
The creator is using a measure to detect what kind of plugin must be used, but then he uses NowPlaying as media player...
Other than that, I use one main measure and all the others children of the first to display all the informations, not use every measure as it's a main measure, but, probably, it's my way of coding...

I didn't download so far the mentioned skin (I hope I'm right when I downloaded the Radian Linear Visualizer 1.9.3 skin from http://freezingclouds.deviantart.com/art/Radian-Linear-Visualizer-1-9-3-535341307), but now I did and fonpaolo, you're completely right. The skin indeed has a very - very weird structure, however I'm not sure if this could cause a such error.fonpaolo wrote:Maybe I'm wrong, however, I looked at the code and, for me, there's something I don't understand in how it's designed.

If the skin is right and untuned really talks about the Radian Linear Visualizer 1.9.3 skin, here are some things which could be tried out:
fonpaolo's approach about the parent - child measures is perfectly ok, this is the best approach when you're working with the NowPlaying plugin. So, the [MeasurePlayer] measure should be the parent measure and all other NowPlaying plugin measures should be the child measures. To achieve this, replace the Plugin and PlayerName options of the [MeasureTrack], [MeasureArtist], [MeasureCover], [MeasureProgress], [MeasurePosition], [MeasureLength] and [MeasurePlayPause] measures with these ones:
Code: Select all
Plugin=NowPlaying
PlayerName=[MeasurePlayer]
Code: Select all
Plugin=[MeasureMediaPlayer]
PlayerName=#PlayerName#
- Open the Radian\@Resources\Linear\LinearVariables.inc file and replace the value of the PlayerName variable with the appropriate name from this list.
- The [Radian\LinearVisualizer] section is totally wrong in the code of the skin. A such section belongs to the Rainmeter.ini, not to the skin itself. Remove it.
- The [MeasureMediaPlayer] measure seems completely useless after all these changes. I'd completely remove it.
- The code uses the @include option three times: once in the [Variables] section, once in the [HeightMea] measure and finally once in the [Bars] section. In such cases only the first one will work, the others are ignored. Replace the second and third @include with @includeHeightMea respectively @includeBars (or obviously you can find other names, important is to not use the same name more times). If you do so, all of them will work, because now they are different options.
All these being said, I'd suggest untuned, to download and try another skin, because this one is completely messed up.
