Analog Cassete Deck Theme

Llorean:
Yeah, leaving out important details like "if you install the official version of Rockbox, you can't use this" is more confusing, I think.

PHK Brasil:

Sorry if sometimes I can't express myself rightly in English.

What I want to say is that I don't see a necessity of minimum details infos on an article that will gives to the reader a panoramic vision about Rockbox. All complementary details, the interested reader will find on Rockbox site.

The phkTAPE theme for example: It has a version for standard builds too and these screenshots are taken from standard builds in simulator. The differences between the versions are clearly explained on the download page, and everyone who wanna use this will know about this.

Now, imagine an "detailed" Rockbox article saying:

- Rockbox has a lot of WPS themes options, but some are outdated with the new code, and will display errors
- Rockbox has 5 band parametric EQ, but depending the music format or kbps, it can cause skips on music
- Rockbox has Treble and Bass Shelving EQS, but not works on iPods
- Rockbox has Hardware EQ access on iPods, but the 3 central peak bands never worked
- Rockbox has blablabla but not works on Gigabeat
- Rockbox plays MPEG videos but blablablabla

That's why I think that some detailed infos are totally irrelevant in this case. Just will leave the readers confused.

bascule:
Yes, but look how many people we already get on the site who do not understand why all the flashy Album Art themes do not work on their player...

I know this theme works (partially) with a standard build, but with long tags it will not look like the picture.

There is more than enough mis-information out on the intarwebs about Rockbox without an article making that worse. So long as the disclaimer/explanation is clear, it is much better to be honest about what can be achieved with the standard build.

PromisedPlanet:
Without a doubt, the best theme I've tried.  This makes Rockbox look REALLY good.

Bravo!

alejandro:
HAHA! I was thinking of doing this for my next theme! Very well done!
