Cannot change XBMC Icon - FreakWave - 2013-05-25 Hi everyone..! I have an Apple TV 2, running tethered-jailbreaked iOS 5.2.1 on it. I installed XBMC 12.2 via command line (not via "NitoTV" or "aTV flash"). Everything runs fine, the icon appears on the main screen and I should be happy..! ;-)) After that, I installed "NitoTV" and "aTV flash" on my Apple TV. Finally I wanted to change the XBMC icon to suit to the rest of the icons. Somewhere on the web I found a quite nice one, downloaded it and put on my Apple TV...but the icon won't change. I restarted Lowtide each time of course. Here is what I tried: - Replaced "AppIcon.png" in folder "/private/var/stash/Applications/XBMC.frappliance" - Replaced "TopRowIcon.png" in folder "/private/var/stash/Applications/XBMC.frappliance" - Replaced "com.apple.frontrow.appliance.xbmc@720p.png" in folder "/private/var/stash/Applications/AppleTV.app" The size of my logo should be correct: 187x108 pixel, color is RGB, saved as PNG. Even when I rename all 3 files, the original XBMC icon is displayed correctly on the main screen. Another strange thing I noticed: When I try to open "com.apple.frontrow.appliance.xbmc@720p.png" in Photoshop CS6, it gives me a "rendering error" (it's hard to translate german errors). Is this PNG somehow protected..? Any ideas what goes wrong here..? Thanks in advance, John RE: Cannot change XBMC Icon - FreakWave - 2013-05-25 Just found the solution: When you look into the folder "/User/Library/caches/Appletv/mainmenu/", you will find another "com.apple.frontrow.appliance.xbmc@720p.png". When you delete this file and restart Lowtite, the XBMC icon is just a black/grey square. I copied my own icon there and renamed it to "com.apple.frontrow.appliance.xbmc@720p.png"...et voilĂ , after restarting Lowtide, the new icon appeared..! ;-)) The funny thing about this is, that when you google "/User/Library/caches/Appletv/mainmenu/", you get exactly 2 hits, both from a german forum, boerse.bz...not mainly an Apple TV or XMBC forum..! Maybe this helps somebody in future... Greetz, John RE: Cannot change XBMC Icon - Ned Scott - 2013-05-26 Thanks for sharing! |
