Themes using Album Art don't work in RB on iRiver H10 20GB

(1/3) > >>

FuzzplugJones:
After about six months without my H10 (the battery died, finally was able to replace it), I loaded Saturday's daily build of RB on the thing and was happily surprised at all the new stuff!  However, most of the themes in the WPS Gallery don't seem to work anymore.  I'd like to finally use one that supports Album Art, as I see that's now included in the newest builds (thank you), but when I select a WPS that has AA support, my WPS changes back to the RB default screen (the plain text and the meters).

The wording in the gallery is confusing... first the themes say "Get the required build," which takes me to a page with a build from last year.  Then they say "IMPORTANT: Requires updates with latest builds!  See the Album Art page" on the wiki.  The wiki page seems to have information for developers.  Does it mean I have to "fix" these WPSes myself?  And why would I have to do that?

I have tried the themes: ZenPod Vision M, ZenPod V4 Color WPS Themes, ZenPod V5, and Clix Theme for X5.  I know I'm not supposed to run "patched" versions anymore but how come none of the AA-enabled themes work?

Thanks

LambdaCalculus:
Most of the themes that support Album Art have to be fixed up to properly comply with the new Album Art and Margins support. Those themes were made for unsupported builds.

If you're feeling daring, maybe you may want to have a go at modifying a couple of them. Here's some instructions:

Just grab your favorite text editor and go for it.

FuzzplugJones:
I'm just wondering why this falls to me.  Somebody should fix them properly and re-upload them.  Maybe the developers of the WPSs?

GodEater:
How do you propose to tell them they need fixing ?

FuzzplugJones:
Well there's no need to be snarky, I didn't jump to the conclusion we had drive-by skinners, that's all.
