[02:22:00] myth_user_1234: Hello.
[02:22:20] wagnerrp: looks fine now
[02:22:27] myth_user_1234: Good evening. I'm using the mythbuntu theme and when I go to watch my recordings the background for 'Jeopardy!' is the face of a moaning girl. I've been trying to figure out where the image comes from but haven't had any luck. Can someone point me to where I can find this information? Thanks in advance for any help.
[02:22:42] myth_user_1234: Apparently you need to register to send to channel.
[02:23:15] wagnerrp: so this is not a theme development question?
[02:23:47] wagnerrp: user support questions go in #mythtv-users
[02:24:22] myth_user_1234: Ah, good point. I was actually looking for a pointer to how the various themes get the backgrounds but I suppose it's not quite as simple as that.
[02:27:10] wagnerrp: ill be happy to explain stuff in the other channel
[02:27:35] wagnerrp: we prefer to keep chatter in the development channels to a minimum, so there isnt much backlog to catch up on
[02:27:59] myth_user_1234: I'm just waiting for you to finish up with the guy having troubles with schedules direct so there aren't two conversations at the same time.
[02:28:38] myth_user_1234: I'll part this channel here though. Keep up the good work devs. It's much appreciated!

[16:48:21] jpabq_: I add both mythgame and mythzoneminder to my Steppes theme. I believe it is now complete.
[16:49:27] jpabq_: Captain_Murdoch: I have created a git repo: git://http://github.com/jpoet/Steppes.git
[17:12:08] stuartm: jpabq_: any screenshots?
[17:13:48] jpabq_: I could create some. Unfortunately, dyndns dropped the domain I have used for years, and I have not set a new one up yet — In other words, I need to come up with a place to put them.
[17:15:18] jpabq_: stuartm: definitely not as "pretty" as your themes, but it achieves the usability that I was after.
[17:16:26] stuartm: ok, I'll take it for a spin at some point :)
[17:24:51] jpabq_: I used very little "art". The theme almost entirely uses shapes. I wanted to present as much information as possible, without it feeling claustrophobic.
[17:48:13] Captain_Murdoch: jpabq_, are you ready for it to appear on the download site?
[17:49:18] Captain_Murdoch: also, as long as you update the version number in themeinfo.xml, then users of your theme will get alerted when a new version is uploaded to the site. currently, I still upload manually, but will get that automated sometime soon hopefully.
[17:49:46] jpabq_: Captain_Murdoch: Yes. I am sure that as soon as you process it, I will find something that needs changed, but I believe it is ready.
[17:52:39] Captain_Murdoch: :) found one issue. your themeinfo.xml references osd_preview.jpg, but that file isn't in the repo. I don't think we use that yet though, but my script noticed it.
[17:53:40] Captain_Murdoch: I think commenting it out would be OK if you don't want or have a osd_preview.jpg yet.
[17:55:01] Captain_Murdoch: yeah, that was fine on this end. I use XML::LibXML to parse the themeinfo.xml file so a comment would work or supplying the actual image would make it past my script.
[17:56:11] ** Captain_Murdoch says jpabq_ 's name just in case. **
[18:22:15] jpabq_: Captain_Murdoch: Commenting it out is fine with me. Guess I never got around to generating that file. Thanks.
[19:08:59] Seeker`: jpabq_: flickr?
[19:09:13] Seeker`: or a video of using the theme on youtube (esp. if it uses animation)
[22:37:20] Captain_Murdoch: jpabq_, theme will get synced to the ftp repo tonight and I can update the index .zip after that happens.
