when trying to upload an animated logo onto my empeg, i get the error message "you must be connected to a hijack'ed empeg and turn on 'use hijack when possible' under tools...options". this is turned on and it wont let me upload. i am using jemplode on windows, connecting through serial, and i have hijack version 245. why is it giving me this message even though it is turned on?

Hijack communicates over TCP/IP. Which generally requires an ethernet connection to the player.

Mike S., I recommend that you change this error message text to include the statement that ethernet is required.

Even more useful would be to gray out the menu items in question and add to the end of the grayed menu item the text "Requires Hijack", "Requires Ethernet", or "Requires Hijack and Ethernet", depending on what Jemplode thinks they're connected to.

thanks! connected through ethernet and it worked great.

Graying out menu items = pain because I have to keep a menu item reference around ... I'll change the error message
