Pen & Paper theme Iriver120 request
« on: February 01, 2008, 04:39:15 AM »
Hi everyone
Does anyone know if it is possible to port the Pen&Paper theme (http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WpsIpod5g#PenPaper) to an Iriver H120? Can anyone have a go at this  - I think it would look great
Thanks in advance
Mikey

Cool theme--and agreed, ideal for the black and white screens (ok, grey and light blue ...).

;)

Actually, I might recommend that if this is going to be looked at by someone, the "next song" version of the WPS be used as the base, either with or without the album art.

I have a version running on my H300 right now.

I'm not really happy with it yet, the graphics seem OK (downsized about 2/3), but I need to master getting them slightly darker. I haven't bothered about main/remote hold indicators (I don't have any remote for my H300 and my wife doesn't use the one on her H100)

The font is the area that is really suffering, it's a bit pixelated in the smaler sizes, I may have to resort to a 'normal' font like the Nano port did.

Good work.  I think I'd prefer a pixelated "written" font to the "standard" one.  Unless it's unreadable!

If you pmail me an e-mail address I'll send it to you for a second opinion - I'm using the H300 here at work and to be honest the fun has worn off and I'm back to Cabbie ...

Aaargh - this is NOT going to be easy...

As you preobably realise the H100 has a 2 bit display, basically Black, White, and two shades of Grey.

While RockBox has dithering, this particular theme relies on a light background and some images that are only slightly darker... I'm not saying it's impossible but I'm having trouble even getting the background image to look sensible (so it might be impossible for me)...

Oh well, never mind.  I thought it might be pushing the envleope a bit for the 120
Thanks very much for giving it a go
