Assuming you have the latest retroTape version (the one available on the theme site), you would have to rename the here attached file "retroTape_sbs.txt" to "retroTape.sbs" and copy it (replace the current one) to your device's .rockbox/wps folder. The attached file retroTape.wps also goes there. Finally, retroTape.cfg has to be copied to the device's .rockbox/themes folder. Please let me know if everything is working OK.

couldn't get this to work and am missing my tape background! can we copy both the .sbs and .wps files into the /wps folder if they have the same name? i couldn't...

not sure if i quite understand the font problem either...

help would be appreciated!

What device are you using? What Rockbox build/release?

I've had very little time to try things, and when I think about having to fix more than 25 themes I've uploaded, because of the recent changes, motivation is harder to find... fixing themes is by far less fun than making them.
Anyway, I finally had the chance to install 3.10 on my iPod video, and the theme(s) do not work, indeed. I tried the files I attached before (http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/topic,24106.msg186968.html#msg186968) on the most recent build simulator (January 2nd I think) and it works on that simulator, and also on a real device's current build. Could you please try the corrected theme on your real device, using the current build?

As for release 3.10, there's no simulator yet, and I also don't know at this moment what changes were introduced since 3.10 that allowed the theme to work again, neither do I know at this point what is causing the problem on 3.10, maybe somebody else knows. I will try to find out anyway, and report back.

Hi, been using retroTape for a few months now on rb 3.8.1 iPod video, bloody love it, but since upgrading to 3.10 the wps doesn't work. I have tried the current build and it still didn't work, now it won't even work rolled back to 3.8.1.
I'm gonna try doing a restore or using a windows machine to make changes, I'm not sure how much rockbox likes my mac!
Awesome theme anyhow, hope yous can fix it  :D

EDIT: I'm a cabbage, forgot to install the fonts package when I'd rolled back to 3.8.1! Now it works a charm.

audio-i:
It should work with the current build anyway, please let me know if it still doesn't, as far as I know it's only a problem when the theme is used with 3.10. If you want to use it on a D2, you should replace the files found here http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/topic,24106.90.html (they should work on an iPod video, too, but they're not necessary)
