A lot of members have had problems with Internet Explorer when installing some themes, if you are using IE try Google or Firefox.
Another option is to unzip the original Black Mamba V1.5.zip, then re- zip only the Image & Screenshot folders and all the Xml files. You shouldn’t have to do this but you never know, I just loaded the original zip file without any problem.

I tested it using Chrome and Firefox. I also tried to make the ZIP with the original Black Mamba, but the same error occurred.
The error occurs only with the Black Mamba and Surreal themes.
OK here is a download link to my copy of DeVicious’ Black Mamba V1.5.zip, I just uploaded it to my SMP so it works for me. Try it and let us know what happens.

I’m sorry but I don’t know what else to suggest, I have only had that error message when the zip file has been to big or a meta.xml file was missing, but in this case the zip is good in both instances.
Have you posted in DeVicious’ Black Mamba page over on the hub WDTV Hub forum and asked DeVicious for help? Link

below. DeVicious is very helpful.
Yes, he replied → "From all i know it works if you download the SMP Theme Pack version
the zip file for upload is within the pack. Since it has 300 downloads and i didn’t hear from anyone I assume it’s working fine. Other than that got to the SMP forum, the link is in the manual."

Thanks for trying to help me
Just saw in another thread that a member suggests turning off firewalls & anti-virus to load themes. Maybe try that if yours are active, you can always turn them back on afterwards.I f that doesn’t work it could be a hardware problem and SMP should be returned.
JoeySmyth, as long as the zip file is under 30mb for the SMP it is OK. nottlle is having problems loading the Surreal theme also and that is only around 18 MB.
There are 2 other members also having the same problem, 1 cannot load any theme, and I believe they all have only recently purchased their SMP’s. Coincidence !!!

I do not know why, but after installing the Alaska theme, I tried re-uploading the theme Black Mamba and it worked.
Then I tried again and gave error … : (
but at least now installed and can I test if I stay with him or not.
ps:installed a smaller version of the Black Mamba posted by Joey. I still used the “Right Click Image Converter” to reduce the theme a little more, getting 11.5 MB.
the black mamba theme is in the sd live which is connected to my nas via wifi ,plays everything so for apart from one file
i downloaded the thumbgen and and changed all my movies on my nas drive to sheets then save that as black mamba theme in the rt in the start when you save that theme in the thumbgen cullent profile option

If you have set up the correct profile in ThumbGen and created your moviesheets you should have 4 files for each movie on your hdd, example as below:
moviexxx.jpg ( thumbnail file)
moviexxx.mkv (or iso. avi.etc) (movie file)
moviexxx.mkv_sheet.jpg (moviesheet file)
moviexxx.xml (movie detais file)
I don’t use a NAS so can’t help your in that respect, my usb hdd is plugged into the rear port on thr WDTVLive SMP.
In addition you may end up with a tgmd file as well, but that’s not relevant to the WDTV.
With regards to a NAS, you need to choose Windows or Linux type shares depending on th OS of the computer you used to format the NAS and not the NAS OS itself. Finally you get prompted for a username and password to acces the NAS - depending on what kind of Access Controls you may or may not have defined.
probably easiest to start with no restrictions at all, get it working, and then clamp it if you need to stop other people seeing your movies.
