Congratulations! You have installed TronMe - welcome aboard!

TronMe is your passport to creating music your way. It is a fully interactive experience in which you take control of your favourite music tracks. You are about to get the chance to remix your own version of the music using a simple click of the mouse.

There are three ways in which you can personalise your music. The first is to download a track in the full IVS format. This is the most interactive experience you can have! In IVS format all the different elements of the song are broken down so that you can play and rebuild it to your heart’s content. You can also download tracks in IVS that allow you to loop inside parts of the track and you can rebuild the song in this way. Finally, there are lots of visual effects available to you to make your video look just right. Don’t forget you can control the music by movements on your webcam so don’t just sit there! Dance, jump, move and make your video look as good as the music sounds!!!

Once you are happy with your remix you can share your video with the world. You can broadcast live on Live Messenger, Skype and Mogolus or you can record as an .avi or .mp3 and post your track onto youtube! Who knows, fame could be just around the corner!

But that’s not all! You can also get a widget code from the TronMe menu that you can insert on your Myspace or Facebook page. This will display a vote button to your visitors and your points will increase every time someone registers a vote by pressing the button. The more votes you get, the higher your score goes and with a higher score comes free tools, songs and special effects!

If you don’t want to share your performance of a track then, of course, you don’t have to. You can still record your version as an .mp3 and load onto your .mp3 player just for your own pleasure. Don’t forget that when you buy a song from the TronMe website you are then free to produce as many versions of that song as you wish. It is yours to play around with for as long as you want and, of course, the revenue from the sale of the track will be shared with the artist and writer of the music.

Every week new tools and tracks will be loaded in your player for you to try for free, so come back weekly to make sure you get the most out of TronMe.

- So the only decision you have to make now is which song you are going to remix first! Have fun and enjoy TronMe. We can’t wait to see what you create!

Where is the TronMe control panel?

Why is TronMe not able to track my face and display Tools?


Usually if you see the default TronMe image of the girl and it is alternating with the webcam's view every 10 seconds this problem is a result of poor lighting conditions such as low light or side lighting. Your position in front of the camera will also affect TronMe's ability to track your face and display Tools. (To fix it see examples below)


Very good Good Bad Very bad

If you can only see the default TronMe image of the girl and it is not alternating with the webcam's view every 10 seconds then right click on the TronMe task bar icon and select properties. Ensure that your real webcam has been properly selected.

If TronMe still doesn't track your face, try closing and restarting the program.

How do I connect TronMe to several applications ?

TronMe can feed your video to several applications at the same time. You can, for example, use your TronMe in Yahoo's instant messaging service and in MSN Messenger's chat at the same time. Simultaneously, you could be using a third program to capture the video to disk. TronMe can be used like a free cam splitter.

Why my messenger program (ie: ICQ) can't detect the TronMe camera in the video setup panel?

TronMe relies on DirectX technology and not Video for Windows (VFW) which Microsoft considers obsolete and replaced by DirectShow and then Windows Media. Some applications like ICQ have not yet upgraded to DirectX so you just need to be patient and wait for your messenger program to upgrade.

"Can't Establish Connection to TronMe server, application can't start."

Please try to install manually this beta version: TronMe 2.0 to fix the problem. Also you could have a problem registering the TronMe software if your firewall is not configured properly. The firewall is a system designed to prevent unautorized access to or from a private network. Also, the TronMe server could be down for maintenance so please try to login at a later time.

Known bug when TronMe run with Windows startup (option in the properites)

The TronMe software won't be able to detect your face when TronMe run with Windows startup, please do not check this option.

The Tools is crooked/poorly positioned on my face, how can I fix this?

If the Tools is not correctly positioned on your face, you can reset the tracker by "wiping" your hand across your face.

After switching the camera in TronMe properties, TronMe does not detect my face.

You need to restart TronMe in order for the program to track your face.

Why can't I see the video I posted to YouTube when I select "Watch TronMe users' videos" from the TronMe menu?

Login to YouTube and type the title of your video and the keyword "TronMe"

Why can't I see my new Tools once I've bought them?

You need to close down and restart TronMe, then you will have the Tools added to your menu.

Not enough?
