Gigabeat F20- updated but no theme (playing screen) viewed

[juansebas]

hello....well first, sorry for my bad english. I had an old version installed on my gigabeat f20, some days ago I made an update but when I choose a theme I can change it, but the problem is when I put now playing...I don't have the new theme...I can see an equalizer and no an empty space when I don't have an art album (For example). I'm not a advanced user of rockbox or programming...
thanks for your time!

thanks...but wich file should I modify?

[Chronon]

The syntax of some of the tags in the .wps file changed.  Update those, or possibly download a fixed version from the theme gallery.

[MarcGuay]

The files you need to modify are in the .rockbox/wps/ folder.

[juansebas]

do you have an example? sorry, as I told you before, I'm not a advanced user.

thanks once again

Before going any further: Are you sure the theme hasn't already been fixed and re-uploaded to the wiki?  Download a new copy and try it to see if it has.

Otherwise:  Have you found the file that you want to modify?  It should be the name of the theme you're trying to use or something similar.  Have you opened it with a text editor?  What step are you at? 

[juansebas]

I used the rockbox installer....and then download all the themes.
I can change the themes...but when I try to load a wps it doesn't work. I open the file with the note pad. example
this is the 4car.wps file opened with notepad:

Okay, so now you go take a look at the message I linked you to and modify that file according to the new style.

[juansebas]

You should think I'm a idiot...but I'm not good programming..... could you post the example I put with the correct lines?

[MarcGuay]

Did you read the message?  It's really quite simple and I'd rather not treat you like an idiot. 

[juansebas]

well I try, but is a bit hard to me understand....I'm not a native english speaker that's the reason.
I don't know wich part I have to put those lines

%pb

Remove the first line and change the second to

%pb|pb.bmp|x|y|width|height|

where
x = x-position
y = y-position
