Re: New Firmware Editor Version 1.0.1.0
 

Hi,

For MattBryan,

Copy this and save as a .lst file, you can then open up inside the editor after you open your firmware, this file will give you the first images up to your media player screen.

Copy all of the below and save as file

Thank you so much Dance. Don't you think menu should be 900*160? I mean your program does not show this size, but in Photoshop icons look right way when menu bmp is that size. Thanks again.

dancemammal..

Noticed a slight error in the .lst generator.

The line "OffSet=0,0" should be "OffSet=-1,0" for all the pictures except for the first picture.

Every Item entry is getting generated with "OffSet=0,0"

This doesn't affect the dancemammal editor, but it causes the wrong pictures to be displayed in RKLogoEdit.

thanks for all the good work!

Hi All,

Thanks Knob, for pointing out the mistake in the lst file generator, i will correct that, also the problem with reloading the lst files.

As for the images, it does'ent matter what size the images are (160 x 900) or (900 x 160) as long as you can see all the images, the images are all stored as a string of bytes, so long as you make your replacement image the same size as the image you are replacing then it will work fine,

The Lst file is just a guide, to help you map out the string of bytes into something easier on the eye.



I am hoping to add some new features to the Editor, if anyone has ideas, either put them in my private message, or add them to the forum.

Things in mind,

1. Formatting, backup and restore of the Player
2. Decryption of Actions firmware
3. Projects (firmware and lst files with last position saved)



Future Additions

Hook into RockChipUSB.drv

Hi dancemammal, please excuse my ignorance, as I'm pretty slow when it comes to firmware lingo. But is this tool only for firmware that is already available, or can it also extract the firmware from rockchip players? Because sadly, I won't be able to make much use of this tool without compatible firmware for my rockchip as I have yet to discover a tool with extraction capability. But keep up the good work! This is helping lots of people.

Yes, I am in the same boat with all 4 Rockchip players. Still, this looks like it's helping people that got f/w with their players. If extracting proves to be impossible, it might be time to invest in a Teclast, which comes with f/w!!

Hi All,

My Player (Onda VX858LE) came with the FW on disk,

I am working on extraction of the firmware from all players (Fingers Crossed), I will start with the RockChip (as it is the one I have), If I bust it, I will hold you all responsible (just kidding).

Regards
Dancemammal

Dancemammal

just noticed that you are a yorkshire man - maybe i could pop in for a "cup of tea" :)

keep up the good work

I may have to move me wippit out't way so you can sit down :)

Re: New Firmware Editor Version 1.0.1.0
 

:shock:

Thats good news dancemammal, don't worry you will find plenty of folks here willing to risk their players to test the extraction utility. :oops:

keep up the very excellent work!!
