USplash XBMC BootSplash - Duduke - 2008-09-18 Hi All, I've set-up a short guide on my blog to help those of you who want to install my custom USplash XBMC theme (which appears in the LiveXBMC CD) on your HTPC UBUNTU installs. Enjoy. Wrong blog address - Duduke - 2008-09-18 Sorry guys... My blog address is http://du-duke.blogspot.com/ - lcapriotti - 2008-09-19 sticking, and kudos to Duduke for the awesome usplash logo! - Razor_109 - 2008-09-19 I'm using this splash logo for some time now.. really does it's job but is was wondering, isn't it possible to make a couple of splashlogo's? Because the logo XBMC uses for starting is nicer than the one you used. I know there is a limit in color's and resolution for Usplash so maybe that is the reason you chose for this image. - Duduke - 2008-09-19 I'll give it a try... and yes, the palette is limited to 256 indexed. - Razor_109 - 2008-09-19 Ok, another thing i noticed is because i suffer from overscan over hdmi as many people will suffer from. The Text on the bottom of the USplash is placed too low so its not completely visable. Maybe a little bit more to the center + higher? - XBMCAJB2K3 - 2008-09-25 I can't get it to compile, at step 3 I get lib not downloaded/depreciated. Anyway to sort this out? BTW using ubuntu 8.04 - Razor_109 - 2008-09-25 uhh try this.. run this instead of the cmd at step 3.. Code: sudo apt-get install usplash libbogl0 libbogl-dev libgd2-noxpm libgd2-noxpm-dev libusplash-dev build-essential (usplash-dev has changed name i guess, is now called libusplash-dev) - XBMCAJB2K3 - 2008-09-25 Nope I got Quote:make: Circular throbber_back.png <- throbber_back.png.c dependency dropped.How ever I got this during apt-get Quote:Fetched 321kB in 0s (365kB/s)Do I have to worry here? - Razor_109 - 2008-09-25 i got the same error during 'compile' and fixed it by running: sudo apt-get install libusplash-dev btw, try install libgd2-xpm.. its installed on my system. - XBMCAJB2K3 - 2008-09-25 Well I'm gunna give up and use the live cd. - Duduke - 2008-09-29 installing libusplash-dev should give you the required pngtosplash. However, you can just get the usplash-theme-xbmc.so from the livecd and use it on your system. - Khan - 2008-09-30 Duduke Wrote:installing libusplash-dev should give you the required pngtosplash. DuDuke, Thanks for making this excellent splash! It was the final piece in creating my MythTV replacement using XBMC. It compiled and installed nicely on my clean Kubuntu install. Man, I love XBMC! - DrErling - 2008-10-11 Kudos to you for making this happen! very nice bootsplash! DrE - DrErling - 2008-10-12 Funny (not really), I had no problems installing the splash on my former setup. After having a ton of sound-issues, beeing a total n00b, f-ing it up, I had to do a reinstall. Cannot seem to get the splash working now. I`ll post the output/inputs: Code: htpc@XBMC-htpc:~$ sudo apt-get install libusplash-dev Any obvious things that I did wrong? DrE |
