160x128x1 (iRiver H1x0 and iPod 4G Grey) theme: ROCKboxed--please review and tes

(1/7) > >>

JustJohnny:
I've created my first theme for ROCKbox. I have a 1st gen. Nano, so that is the original target device. I've started modifying it for use on other devices.

The theme is available on the iRiver H1x0 & iPod 4G Grey WPS gallery pages of the wiki.

Please try out the theme and let me know what you think.  I'm particularly interested in testing the progress bar and volume icons.

Does the progress bar fill the outline at the end of a song? I was having some difficulties while testing this with the uisimulator.

The inspiration for the theme is the Rockbox logo. Comments are appreciated.


ROCKboxed, version 1.0
Icons along bottom: volume, shuffle, repeat shuffle, play, hold, and battery level.

Other screenshots can be found on my personal website.

Did you mean for the theme to start out inverted? I personally think it looks better with it being normal instead of inverted.

Other then that, It's a nice and simple theme for getting the information across. I would personally like to have a next song line, but that's just me. It might make this theme too packed. All in all, it's a nice theme.

Yes, I put the invert command in the configuration file, but the version of the uisimulator software I used apparently doesn't handle that setting. I just didn't take it out, but will do so.  Could you take a picture of your iRiver using the theme as it is and post it/send it to me, so I can see what it looks like inverted. It would be a great help.

Yes, I didn't want the screen to feel to packed/cluttered.  Once I've redesigned the current version of the theme for all the various Rockbox supported devices, I will come back and try some tweaks. Please feel free to implement and post revisions.

Thanks for the compliments, and taking the time to load and review this theme.

Peter200lx:
Well, the screen dumps don't capture the inversion. I have some dumps I made and then inverted to that it's like what is was. The screen dumps has a blue as the background, although that's only what it looks like with the background. The screen dumps I'm showing were converted to 160x128x1.
This is the default lookSwitched the inversion sectionAs dumpedConverted to two bit color
I believe that the inverting of the screen is a special feature that is just part of the actual LCD driver chip. That is why it wasn't showing up on the simulator. *This from what I understand, I could be wrong

JustJohnny:
Thanks Peter200lx!! Inversion is definitely not what I wanted.  I have changed the config. file to set inversion to off, repackaged the theme, and uploaded the new version it to the wiki.
