Hi Dancemammal,

Did you create this yourself?
I'm very impressed with it.
Going to try this and give you feedback.

If anyone else can give feedback, that would be great.

[Dancemammal]

Hi,

Feedback would be great, software only gets better with input from the users.
On the next stable release I will include the source code, I would prefer everyone not to just rip off the code and make their own version, I think it is better if we work together, and make an application worth using.

You may find it is a little bias toward the RockChip, as this is the model I have,
I have added some features to help the software access the Actions Chip Firmware, but I wont be able to test it properly, also some of the Actions Firmware is encrypted with a hash, I can break it, but it will take a little time.


Everyone please remember, this is the first release so there may be bugs!

Cheers

This is gonna be the best MP4 theming software EVER!

Like the nice big display area, it's gonna help a lot with checking the picture alignment.
Had a go and it's perfect with the Onda 858LE firmware.
It seems to have a problem at the moment finding the correct picture start offset for other Rockchip firmwares though.

I had this problem with my 2" Rockchip firmware, I guess the start offset is hard coded for the Onda firmware? :roll:

I typed in the correct offset for my firmware (hex 3C2ED8, dec 3944152)and the first .bmp lined up nicely, but as soon as I clicked on the next entry in the .lst the offset reverted back to the one for Onda 858LE.

Gonna love using this software it's absolutely wonderfull! :wink:

Just tried it and is fantastic!
It's really fast to find images now.
I have some requests :
1-Could you add some keyboard shortcuts to move the offset one line at time instead of one pixel at time?It will speed up finding the starting offset of images.
2-Could you make a button that automatically add a lst line with the values inserted in the editor?

[Dancemammal]

Glad you like it, makes the effort worthwhile,

Ok Guys,
Keep em coming,
so far I got : keyboard shortcuts and problem with start offset, no biggie

Could you make a button that automatically add a lst line with the values inserted in the editor?

I see, you want the width and height passed to the item editor! Ok


We may have to change the lst format (sorry I know) but this would make it easier to find the start offset for the images in each firmware, this change should not affect RKLogoEdit, but would help us.

We also need a name for the application , answers in a forum please, best name wins....

And also the offset,so you basically save the item you are seeing,once you know it's displayed correctly.
Regarding the name,i suck on thinking names,so i pass :lol:

great work dance

when creating new lst entry i am unsure what many of the parameters are i.e.

type
sub type
flag

etc..
i have created lst files before using RK and never really bothered with these bits - what are they exactly and if not major can they just have defaults in the box that can be edited if desired - this would make entering new items quicker

great work though - very impressed with your speed and skill

ItemType is whether you want to modify text or bitmaps
e.g.
ItemType=1 //for bitmaps
ItemType=2 //for text

if you put a "//" in the .lst then it is ignored so can be used for comments.

an entry like:-
DefaultOffSetT=0x3AECA4
sets the Offset for Text mode.

The text modyfing facility works in RKLogoEdit, but it is very poor and I think it has been abandoned now, I did create a working .lst for text editing in RKlogoEdit, but I didn't find it very useful compared to RKMenu which seems to have a sort of "intelligent text search"

not sure about what "subtype" or "flag" means though.

sorry for going a bit "off topic" but then some of this info might be useful for the new firmware editor.

Like the name "Rock Solid" but might offend the actions users how about "RockAction"

hi Dancemammal,
you said "some of the Actions Firmware is encrypted with a hash" do you check the soft that i told you "mp3fwtools"?

http://www.mympxplayer.org/tool-mp3f...ish-df675.html

this soft can open actions fw encrypted. if you look into the folder, there is a file dll, call it EncryptDll.dll maybe can help you to break the hash.

good luck
