I have no idea what an X-application might be. Thanks Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may install if you first install Japanese language pack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfbp Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 A while back I got SS version V working. Look at the original post(s) by Avrin. It involved several elements. One was installing Jp support and the language bar. Another was applocale. Interestingly, although Japan is removed from my options with the language bar, SSV still runs (I just checked). However my Japanese is nonexistent, so the result isn't much use to me. I suspect that applocale is the key; if I wasn't somewhat preoccupied I would have made the effort to try it. Stephen PS note that I do NOT think that this software *is* SonicStage. I think it's something else, and that's why (at least initially) I haven't bothered. Old dogs, new tricks.......

Google translate (on the Google toolbar) gives quite a useful rendition in English. Mind you, I won't be going anywhere near this update until someone conforms it works.

Christopher Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 x-application is basically a highly evolved version of SonicStage 5, but it handles music, image, and video viewing/sharing, organizing, etc. I have been toying around with the idea of finding someone who can make an English language pack for this software. It would not be that impossible to accomplish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 It's great that Sony finally added support for the RH1 back into x-Application. I had been using version 1.1 of the software with my NW-A847 and it is really nice. Now I can hopefully get my RH1 working on the Vaio TZ again with Windows 7. There was a guy who started an English patch for this that works pretty well. He was about half way through - I applied the patch and most of the UI and main menus are done, but not the options screens. Not sure if it works with V2.0. http://beshayer.com/...sh-translation/ PS: to get X-App to run on an English OS, you can decompress it with something like UniversalExtractor, then comment out the allowed languages line in the .ini file in the root directory before launching the setup. After you have installed the main app you can apply the language patch - but I have not tried this with V2.0, only 1.1. No other applocale or JP language packs are required from my experience on Windows Vista / 7. Applocale was just for XP. Edit: looks like he released an updated version of the patch, but don't think it works with V2.0 of X-app, only 1.1. http://beshayer.com/...final-released/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
