Pretty simple to compile the code. Grab the latest from git://xbmc.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/xbmc/xbmc and use the makefile. It's all in the wiki.

The splash.png is 720p so why not just expand the detail of the image to encompass the entire canvas. Limits you to a black background.

I updated to latest svn today . Before doing so I had a red circle with a white x just before Alaska homescreen shows. I thought updating would fix it.

is the red circle/white x a sign no splash is found?
I put splashh.png (from first post here, is the name correct or a typo?) in xbmc/.xbmc/media/ which was empty.Didnt work. also renamed to splash.png and rebooted but still no luck.

It's the 'No mouse' icon - just disable Mouse control in the Settings.

Thanks! I thought it was related to splash

Hi all,

I played around with photoshop this afternoon and this was the end result:

Not completely minimalistic but I'm quite happy with it anyway...
Feel free to grab if you want!

Best regards,

I am getting the same on PC, but I do have a mouse connected and the pointer works, any ideas?

Not really "no mouse icon" as in "no mouse is connected", but rather "no mouse icon" as in "there is no mouse cursor image". This is since Alaska wasn't meant to be used with a mouse - use your keyboard or remote.

Fair enough. Thanks.

Here's another ALASKA splash screen I posted earlier but which disappeared for some unknown reason!
