I tried this last summer when I first got my Tracker and like you, used the exact same format and made sure everything was the same as the original files but could never get it to work. I was trying to put a tips and tricks page in that I put together but, nope.

I tried different formats. I checked the format too. Perhaps if I write to polyend… lets see

Would be cool to put the circle of fifths in there along with how the codes of chords translate to common chord names.
Alongside a picture of my own face of course

Hmmm I’ve checked the built i manual when I first got it…there was nothing 
I wouldn’t mind sticking that in there. Any directions to where I can find this? I’ll try to sort out the image thing too.
…seems this will become reality!

YES!
That jpeg works man! Nice smileys!
I tried different software to write that on Windows, nothing worked atm.
So far I tried:
- Affinity Photo
- Gimp
Will search for other software, that works on Windows and Linux too.

Oh Yeah!!!
Finally Krita worked!
You made my day!
I’ve put a heart onto it, for you!
If you want to fiddle with that on linux or windows too:
Open a “manual” jpeg in Krita, do your thing, save and deselect all metadata & co stuff.

next thing i would try out: there are the files 1-8.jpg in the folder…what about to put some more in it? 9.jpeg, 10.jpeg…maybe it´s coded like a basic imageviewer to show the content of a folder
It reads those jpegs from folder
/Manual/Quick start
the files need to be named with numbers. Words or such things do not work.
It presents you those files in such an order:
1
10
11
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
alphanumerical ordering I guess.
Originally there are 1 to 8 .jpg files in that folder.
It does not recognise other folders in that /Manual directory.
But anyway, it’s more than anyone can ask, right?
I’m happy!
Tried this all with v1.5.0

Just chiming in to say that I replaced the jog wheel encoder on my tracker and it’s working good as new. Totally doable if you have any soldering experience.
This is actually my third time owning the PT. Long, gassy story. This one I bought used from reverb. It’s the all metal revision, and the seller neglected to mention that the jog wheel was totally unusable. Glad to have been able to repair it!

I know it’s somewhere in this thread but how do you gals/guys tell for certain whether it’s an all metal polyend tracker before hand, is it by a certain build date, number, ???

If you can see the back of the Tracker the labeling will be white on the MK1/2 and simply imprinted/not white on the MK3. I think that’s the easiest way to tell by sight.

what if you can’t see the back, it’s sealed in its package?
