TRAKART For iPhone Support

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

2. Check out the Forums to see what other users are saying
3. Email us if you have issues or recommendations

Tips & Tricks:
1. Use the Settings to adjust the search and display parameters to fine-tune your experience. Settings for Keyword (Lyric) Length and Keywords Per Request have a significant effect on search returns and will create new, varied mixes for each song as you adjust these parameters.
*Some settings only take effect on the next track.

2. TRAKART performs best with WiFi access for photo downloading but will work efficiently with 3G access. TRAKART has to search for the lyrics, search for the photos, download the photos and display the photos. Better Access = Better Performance!

3. If you have very high speed WiFi access or 3G service (never gonna happen with AT&T) you can adjust the Image Duration and Transition Duration to shorter intervals for faster slideshows.

4. If songs only display the Artist Name, then there are no lyrics available and therefore TRAKART cannot return relevant images and defaults to the Artist (and Track) Name when available.

5. If the Artist Name is not even available, then TRAKART will display returns for the search term “music” as a default. In the future, we will be rolling out a TRAKARTISTS program that invites people to tag their images on Flickr for default slideshows.

6. You can select Tracks, Artists and Playlists from within TRAKART or you start playing from the iPod App and start TRAKART for automagic music videos.

Device Requirements:
iPhone or iPod Touch with iPhone OS 3.0 and Later
(We also have a free visualizer plug-in for iTunes for Mac OS X.)

TRAKART Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is TRAKART? – TRAKART is a music visualizer that automagically makes realtime music videos for your tracks.

2. It’s installed, now what? – Open the TRAKART App, play your song(s) and TRAKART will start working immediately. Simple!

3. How does it work? – Each song or playlist is translated into a string of search terms for public photographs from Flickr®, creating a random but relevant slideshow montage for your tracks in iTunes / iPod.

4. Where does TRAKART get the images? – Currently, images are sourced from public Flickr® feeds. Future releases may allow for a wider array of sources, including user customization.

5. What’s next? – We are planning on future releases of TRAKART for iPhone. Your suggestions will guide our development. Also look for TRAKART on Android. And also a Windows release of our iTunes Plug-In. Other ideas? Please contact us!
