What is EasyLogo?
=================
EasyLogo is a dreambox plugin that allows to extract and save, or also to change, the boot-logo picture of the currently loaded flash image.
It is NOT requested to unpack and then repack the image, but all is done just by pressing a button on the remote control, in a few seconds.
The new boot-logo will be immediately visible on the next restart.
Installing
==========
Just copy, via FTP, the files "easylogo.so" and "easylogo.cfg" to /var/tuxbox/plugins
Using
=====
EasyLogo has double function, selectable from the plugin's main window:
- "Grab logo from flash image"
allows to extract the boot-logo picture from the flash image, and saves it into /tmp directory, with the filename of "bildgrab".
- "Change logo of flash image"
allows to change the boot-logo picture of the flash image, taking the new one from the file "/tmp/newbild", that the user will FTP to the box before starting the procedure.
So, step-by-step:
- A) "Grab logo from flash image"
1) once entered the plugin, just press BLUE key on the remote control to activate this function.
2) the procedure will end in one second (a "Done" window will appear), and you will find the grabbed boot-logo into "/tmp/bildgrab"
-
"Change logo of flash image"
1) Prepare your favourite picture for your boot-logo, by using TMPGenc and by following the usual procedure described everywhere on almost all the available dreambox's FAQ.
To make easy the setup of TMPenc, I included a template "TMPEnc_template.mcf" prepared for standard boot-logo mpeg conversion. You will find it into the directory "template" in the EasyLogo zip archive.
Just drag&drop the template file on the main window of TMPGenc and you'll be ready to convert.
2) once converted your picture with TMPGenc, rename the output file to "newbild"
(into the "demo" directory of the archive, you'll find a "newbild" file, ready to use, with a nice boot-logo picture, that will be surely appreciated by all the linux-maniacs... :-D )
3) ccopy "newbild" file to /tmp (with a FTP proggy)
4) Start the plugin, and push the RED button of the remote control to begin the procedure.
A progress meter will appear on a pop-up window to display the status of the install.
5) All will be finished within 10-15 seconds :-)
6) Exit from the plugin and reboot dreambox... nice boot logo, isn't it? :-))

Go on Gamboy, use the powers given to you by the big R in the sky and insert this very well written How To in the Idiot guide. It has been a while since we put in anything new in there...
