First of all, a happy and healthy new year to all to you!
Yes, long time no see but as I saw how much this theme community has been grown up here, I was motivated to have my fingers back on the live hub. Especially as I saw those beautiful made themes here, full of little details a lot of people wouldn’t even recognize and how much work is behind. Just my two cents.
As I said I have worked a bit on Anodized theme to have it at least compatible with newest 3.01.19. So the “Game” and the “RSS” tag are now on the main menu. In additional the large video sheet view has now 10 big covers which I personally love. It reminds my on old wdtv live which rests in peace
After some imcompatiblity with firmware 3.01.19 and my old Theme, I decide to recreate a partial skin to include movie sheet. For the moment, everything look fine… but i need to put some skin around the bone (hehe skin joke). And I’ve two question for you
in the xml (in theme folder) does poosible to look inside a .tgmd file?
in the xml (in theme folder) does possible to replace a text information into xml (movie folder) for a image (like rating or language… like mapping table text to image?)
Can I ask if it possible to try other sheets? from other providers ie (Extreme_Finalmix_sheet)
I am a Noob at this and trying to experiment (so far without much luck LOL)
It seems I will have to rollback firmware, to a favorite theme (once I find one) but I would like to try different sheets if at all possible. If I cant on your theme can it be done on any others?
Ive always love this theme, Im running the lastest firmware and I found some minor cosmetic issues so far, you might or not known about it…
On the large video browse page, there is a overlap on the weather / time with the small icons/ description.
Also, not sure, on my genre folders, Im using genre icons, name folder.jpg, embeded within each prospective folder, and not sure why, its not showing, it only shows a what ever movie icon it might have. Ive flush out, (Meaning deleted the thumbs folder an reset the hub, no dice, stills show a movie icon
example
A TEAM.MK4
A TEAM.metathumb
A TEAM.xml
folder.jpg
GREEN HORNET.ISO
GREEN HORNET.metathumb
GREEN HORNET.xml
It only shows a team…??? any thoughts…
Also, an idea, Tinwarble on the dark theme, on the playing the video, on the video info bar, which has the time line, he has the codec and video info on that bar… is there any way you could incorporate this feature??? it would be great…
Just a small note for people who use this theme on the Gen 3 WiFi player… It works quite well, except that the icons on the main page play the intended theme animation and then switch back to the original icon in some cases. I found that this is simply due to the fact that some animations use more animation frames than the theme contains, so it replaces the “missing” ones with the original ones. To fix this, take the last file of each animation, make some copies, and rename them.The last file of each has to be:
photo_icon_025.png
music_icon_030.png
video_icon_038.png
service_icon_030.png
This way, you will prevent the original theme icon from showing anymore.
