Info/description:

Description:
Power Radio - a FM player with RDS decoding for VGA and WVGA devices.

Why PowerRadio?
The built-im FM player - at least on HTC HD - misses many features I'd like to have in a FM radio. PowerRadio delivers many data available via RDS which would otherwise be invisible to the listener.

Here are just a few examples:
- Radiotext: contains information broadcast by the respective station. What you get here totally depens on the broadcaster. You might see title and interpret, call-in numbers, SMS trafficservice numbers, URL's etc.
- Traffic announcements.
- Program type.
- Coverage area.
- Date, time, timezone.
- Various status flags.

If you are interested in details about RDS please see this thread. At post #2 you'll find a big list with references for further reading.

Note: symbolic picture. HD2 is not currently supported.

Making of:
- PowerRadio is built on top of flywhc's GFMAPI, which currently supports Diamond, Raphael, Blackstone, Polaris, X1, Rhodium, Topaz.
- Screen resolution is designed to work with VGA and WVGA devices only.
- FM bandswitching is partially hardcoded for CCIR band (i might rework that in the future).

Credits:
Full credits to flywhc for his GFMAPI, which brings full RDS power to the developer.

Usage:
After setup when started for the first time, PowerRadio will scan the whole band for stations, storing them to the available preset buttons.

Manual scan: long-press "scan" button to get context menu with various options.
Preset buttons: long-press a button to get context menu with options for store, delete, rename.
Ear/spk: switch between earphones and speaker.
Mute/unmute: self explanatory.
Blend: improves stereo reception and/or expands stereo base.
Stereo: switch between mono/stereo.

All settings are saved in PowerRadio.ini.

If you like this project, please consider donate to the developer.

Update Description:

v2.3.2.0:
- Bugfix: some registry settings didnt get updated when using headset button.
- Doc error: script command "AudioPath" should be "AudioPathToggle".

v2.3.0.0:
- Power Radio got gesture support! Please note that this is only supported on Windows Mobile 6.5 or greater.

The following gestures are available:
- Swipe right/left to switch to next/previous preset bank.
- Pan a preset to another (free) location. It wont let you overwrite existing presets.

v2.2.3.0:
- Removed check for FMS_API.DLL.
- Tuner sensitivity setting reverted to previous versions, as it led to problems on some devices.
- Changed signal strength calcucation: as there is no absolute maximum to use as a percentage indicator, the strongest station is used for that purpose. Maximum value is saved in PowerRadio.ini.

v2.2.2.1:
- Fixed bug in logging.
