At long mix tracks the numbers cannot be read, because the text box is too small.
It seems to be a problem in the default skin:

If it is ok with the creator of the skin, I can fix this for you very easily. If they approve it to be resized you can send to me a private message to let me know what skin needs to be fixed.

Hi Jon,
yes, it would be fine if you could fix that for me, but in general the VDJ8 default skin should be fixed by the VDJ developers.
I use the 2 decks display in 1920 x 1080 resolution.

Axel

If not mistaken, you have an older version of the default skin.
Not sure if the times will be displayed fully though, but you can try this.
Replace the VirtualDJ 8.zip file you have in /documents/virtualDJ/skins folder with this http://www.virtualdj.com/documents/Skins/VirtualDJ%208.zip

I can see the same issue too. (but its only cosmetic)
Ive updated to the latest version of the default skin and loaded a very long track, and as you can see the number is drawn too big..
but its only a cosmetic issue and its easily fixable with a quick edit of the .xml file...

I wonder if it's possible to make this particular text display area smarter?
E.G. it checks the length of the loaded track, and if it's over X time, it displays using a smaller font size.

Hi,
it is better with the Skin from DjDad, but there would be enough space to make the text box a little larger...

It is an easy fix. Just look into the xml file and find the textzone that is related to that area and set the text size down a number down 1 or 2 digits then save it and slip it back into the zip file. I have fixed many textzones that had this problem and it work nicely.
if it is something that may be difficult for you, I can do it in 5 mins. But I need the permission of the skin creator and the actual skin in question.
Here is an example. Just lower the number until it fits.
<textzone panel="decksfull" deck="right">
<size width="62" height="16"/>
<pos x="1226" y="198"/>
<up x="1365" y="582"/>
<size width="90" height="10"/>
<text font="digital-7" size="19" color="orange" weight="bold" align="left" scroll="yes" format="%Pspent"/>
<text2 font="digital-7" size="19" color="blue" weight="bold" align="left" scroll="yes" format="%Pleft"/>
<text3 font="digital-7" size="18" color="#FFFFFF" align="left" scroll="yes" format="%author %title"/>
</textzone>
