View Full Version : New boot screen ideas
Hi all vix team is looking into the idea of a new boot screen image.
please could you post your ideas and suggestions here..and you never know yours might get selected
Now wouldn't that be cool....
I will kick off with an image called stratosphere.
Obviously this should go without saying but please use common sense when posting potential bootscreen ideas, nothing pornographic or offensive etc.
Many thanks ViX Team.

use any paint program to make the jpeg then use dreambox logo creator to make it into a .mvi

depends on which screen your talking about, if it's the very first black OpenViX logo thats a splash screen and has to be flashed by USB the rest can be changed via FTP.

no not the splash screen, the actual boot logo. i had a diffrent one with the mvi file etc and changed it but it showed the new one and the original vix one
you need to make 2 mvi files one boot logo and one backdrop of the image and ftp to user/share and overwrite the two excising mvi files.
Right click and "save as".
needs to be 1280x720 to be able to convert.
here is one very much like what we now have plus others..
Plenty to chose from at HDWallpapers.in

Was thinking and I don't know how difficult or that it would be
But would you be able to build in a plugin to allow the user to design their own logo and the plugin uploads and replaces it
So say like my image above edited in Photoshop to match correct dimensions and with vix
And a vu+ solo2 box on it
Would look pretty sweet lol
But again dunno how hard that would be or time consuming for the team
Just firing ideas out tho ;)

This pretty much does exactly what you want. but it's a PC program not a Enigma2 one.

put custom bootlogos/bootvideos into /etc/enigma2
dont overwrite the system ones in /usr/share

why bootlogos/bootvideos into /etc/enigma2 ???here is channellist!!
works for me all in /usr/share
ye theres more in enigma2 folder than channellist.
yes it works fine in /usr/share but that is the system one
/etc/enigma2 is where you put custom ones so you are not overwriting system files.
/usr/share contains the system file, (this should not be changed), if you place one into /etc/enigma2/ also known as the user file, the image will bypass the system file and use this instead, until such a time as you remove or change the user file. The same system works for other files like the satellites.xml file and has worked perfectly for years.
Given that the MVI file format is a video one, does anyone know whether the boxes can actually handle a boot video, rather than just a single static image?

openvixhd uses an animated bootlogo(bootvideo), and there are 3 more animated bootlogos in the feeds under bootvideos
Here's my first go at a bootlogo. It's basically the same as an image posted a few pages back. I couldn't get that to convert to .mvi because he resolution was too small so I've created my own. It's full 1080p, thought it was worth a post and share.
Edit: I forgot to resize the image to 1920x1080. Don't download this attachment I'll post the correct resolution in a second....
Sorry about that, here is the corrected resolution bootlogo zip
