Can I change these pictures or are they burned in the firmware?

Txs and I am new to the MP4 player

powerwoofer , firstly you'll need to identify the player's firmware version. Go to the System/Settings menu, select Firmware Version/Info. What does it display?

csteinmetz1 , unfortunately the v9.0.50 is not supported by any firmware extraction tool at the moment. So without your own extracted firmware, it is very risky to flash someone else's themed firmware into your player.

The player i am putting it on i don't need any more. i paied $10 dollars for it. Is there any posable way to do it even if it is not safe.

** Warning, this is for adventurous people only. **

csteinmetz1 , if that's the case, you can use the v9.0.50 firmwares here http://www.mympxplayer.org/actions-9...ware-dc37.html

Just download any firmware that your feel is almost similar to your player, and modify it.

To modify, use S1res tool, guide is here http://www.mympxplayer.org/how-to-mo...ool-vt206.html

Once done, flash the modified firmware into your player, guide here http://www.mympxplayer.org/how-to-up...ayer-vt46.html

If it is compatible, the player would startup with a new theme. However, mostly likely 99.9% you would brick it instead.

Either way, to save your time, i'll suggest that you download and flash the firmwares in directly rather than wasting time theming and then flashing. If the firmware does not work in the first place, there's no point theming it.

csteinmetz1 , which program are you referring to? The S1res tool?

When i try to open the firmware in S1res it tell me that it is the wrong format.
