Lol, cheers guys will try this stuff out tonight.

I will avoid the chicks for now (as delicious as they look) as there's a good chance the in-laws might be watching TV round here soon!

Is the same sort of method used when adding a pic that would be shown when having the radio on? My old Sportster 1.7+ image had a Neutrino logo when radio was on, would be cool to have something similar again.

I put that link on, but it's up to the individual if they what to upload that kind of stuff or not. It's called freedom of choice, but some people think that I was forcing that upon you

I'm never gonna turn down those kinda JPG's mate, whether they end up on my dbox or not!

Thanks to all who replied, had an extended lunch so went home to try this out... All worked fine and dandy.

Btw I had some trouble finding Tuxbox Logo Viewer 0.40 before I worked out what the release name was. Anyone visiting this thread via Google can find it via Googling LogoViewer_V040_Setup.zip or going to: h**p://www.ump2002.net/index.php?order=nom&direction=1&directory=Tools_fu er_dbox2_und_Dreambox&PHPSESSID=gi685vf

Another quick Q guys, if I wanted to change the LCD boot image to an animated one from h**p://www.dbox2-tuning.net/dlc/index.php?name=CmodsDownload&file=index&req=viewsd ownload&sid=8&min=10&orderby=dateD&show=10 how would I go about it? Instructions on that site are in German.

standardmäßig verwendbar mit den Nova-Tux images.
Nach lcd.ani umbenennen und nach var/tuxbox/boot einspielen.
Für andere Images wird das Programm aniplay benötigt. Am besten nach /var/bin einspielen.
Logos können beispielsweise mit dem Befehl

/var/bin/aniplay /var/tuxbox/boot/lcd.ani &

aufgerufen werden.

Um Logoanzeige zu stoppen

killall aniplay

eingeben.

Currently have boot.conf, logo-fb and logo-lcd in /var/tuxbox/boot/

Not been able to find many guides when it comes to animated LCD bootlogos.

Cheers!

depends how the image is written,

if u r a bit unsure of editing don't bother as u will end up having to ifa ur img back on.

first rule as normal back-up ur current working img...just in case.

Try this at ur own risk if u want:

you will need a copy of the aniplay file and an animation....you can rip the file from an img with animation or use the ones i've attached.

files.rar

Eg. for the latest lincsat image without animation.

one way is to edit the start_neutrino file in the etc/init.d folder, u can ftp this file to ur pc or edit in flashfxp. probably best to ftp the file and keep a back-up

in a text editor u will need to add the text:

ani1.jpg

and

ani2.jpg

the part of the start_neutrino file that needs to be edited should look like this after:-

ani3.jpg


you have to rename the animation lcd.ani and this goes in the var/bin file and the aniplay file goes in the /bin file.

change all attributes (CHMOD) to 755 for all files - reboot

should work - animation will play during the info start-up

enjoy

Nice one TwinTown, I'll give that a shot when I have a bit of spare time !

Looks a bit challenging but hey, I like a challenge.

I changed my bootscreen today, it seems to be a bit big for the TV screen, but looks good, it's not permanent, but will be fiddling until I get it right...

Going to have a fiddle with the LCD bootlogo in a bit, it reminds me of when I used to make my own Service logos for my old Nokia phones...

Nice, yeah I noticed a few cm's get chopped from either side of the pic (even at the recommend res) so I redid my boot pic a 2nd time.

I have an image I took of a place I like around here with "Television for <name of my house>, <name of town>" at the top

Then "<name of place>, <name>, <date photo taken>" at the bottom. Looks great, damn even the missus was impressed as it's a pic of one of 'our' places.

I may eventually add a bit of animation too! Fun stuff, these little boxes...
