converting old themes to current rockbox
« on: February 06, 2011, 09:59:55 AM »
I'd like to convert my old theme Klean V4 which are usable only on release 3.6
to the latest rockbox version.

Where can I download the skin updater program to do this? Also will it convert thoroughly or do I still have to manually tweak?

Thanks!!  :)

There is (somewhere, I don't remember where to download) a theme updater command-line tool for Windows.
Perhaps you'll still need to tweak some things manually (for example, the elapsed time track progress bar might not show the elapsed time, you'll have to put the progressbar on its own viewport.

ok thanks.
guess I'll have to do some major tweaking here and there  ;)
Also I think the link to skinupdater seems broken or something - unable to access file.

Here you are,

A fresh link to the skinupdater binary


[St.]

EDIT:

The syntax is: skinupdater wps_name.<ext> wps_new_name.<ext>
Where <ext> == .fms, .sbs or .wps
Update your .fms, .sbs, and .wps files separately.

Using PMs to annoy devs about bugs/patches is not a good way to have the issue looked at.

There is also a copy of the windows binary of the skinupdater here: http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/SkinBreakingChange
