Heh, I'm confused too, I had the tuner working great on mine before, but now it doesn't, never had to do that to get it to work, but I'm not familiar with Ulf's code at all really, too much to do other places to look into it deeply right now, hopefully someone can, also I think it's using stuff he hasn't released to autogenerate things so kinda stuck I suspose anyways wasting time trying to figure it out.
