Azure: New theme for Sansa Fuze, IPod Color/photo and iRiver H3xx

<< < (3/3)

Hi atsakir
Thanks for your rapid response and the attachment. I tested it both with the simulator and the H3xx. Unfortunately the "line-problem" still exists. The other one, the "rating stars" does not bother me any more, since, as I have said, I found a solution by disabling the relevant function in the .sbs.
Now to explain a little more: I use 2 versions of your theme: the original and a (slightly) modified by me, (the totally newbie in playing with code! :-\): the latter has  A) rating disabled, B) modified info in the .wps, so that in the 4th line, (the "i" line), there is text alternating , from "file format+bitrate+khz" to "year+genre".
In the simulator in "system" I read: "skin RAM usage: 218kB/312kB" (if I use the modified version)
and "219kB/312kB" (when I use the original).
In the actual DAP: "skin RAM usage: 95.9kB/96kB" (if I use the modified version)
and "96kB/96kB" (when I use the original). I believe the DAP report is closest to the truth.
That's all (if it is any help).

From what I understand unless 96kb refers to the remote skin buffer you DO have a buffer issue because 96kB should not be sufficient for this theme to work correctly since the bmp files in the wps folder alone are 117kb and they are almost all used in both the sbs and wps screens. However, if you have the same issues in the simulator as well as in the DAP then there must be some other problem (in addition to the buffer problem) I can't figure out.

On my simulator in the DOS log window it reads:
Skin buffer usage: 148188/320000
Skin buffer usage: 223936/320000
Skin buffer usage: 228432/320000

As I understand it the first is for the remote skin, the second for the sbs screen and the 3rd for the wps screen. I'm using release r24777 of the simulator.

I don't know what to say, about the buffer of my DAP. I have also noticed with other themes it always says "some kb/96kb". Maybe because I have replaced the HDD with a CF card?
I use the same simulator, I don't have any remote, problem happens with both the DAP and the simulator. My DOS log window displays only 2 lines about skin buffer usage:
Skin buffer usage: 147564/320000
Skin buffer usage: 222588/320000
almost the same with your values. But are we sure that the term "buffer usage" from the simulator and the term "RAM usage" from the DAP mean exactly the same thing?
Anyway I don't want to bother you with that, I am quite satisfied with the theme as I have modified it, even with the small line problem. Congratulations again! By the way I also enjoy the other theme of yours, rayboradio_fuze_v2, which works great!

I'm sorry I couldn't get the line problem fixed for you, because I HAD noticed it on the Fuze and had fixed it for that. Anyway, thank you for your kind words and by the way ...the next one is going to be even better ;)

check out a sneak preview



...and it does show genre as well  (the album art and extra info are toggled every few seconds) ;)

It looks impressive! I will certainly give it a try when it's ready.
