edit: except /usr/bin/list.watch you'll need that too

It may be possible to convert it, but that might be too slow for real-time playback.

You could ask WD for this.

warning: gids truncated to 8 bits. (This may be a security concern.)

I have just noticed few really minor things to adjust + a possible new bug when using the "next" buttion and arriving on the last page. I am not sure if this bug is new, neither if it is relative to Brad or Western Digital. I will first check with the previous OSD to determine if it is new.

FTP to your WDTV and copy the new file over the welcome_logo.png at both:
/osd/image/
/osd-php/image/
(Backup the original to your PC first so you can easily restore it if you want to.)

For osd-php I got an error message stating it was read only, but the file overwrote anyway.
[Edit: Disregard instructions to copy to /osd-php/image. It is not necessary]

My logo is
WDTV
HD-X

X is for experimental firmware. Developers feel free to include with your code if you wish or I'll be happy to create another one for you, if you prefer.

Original:


Custom:


Actually looks much better on the TV. The "jaggies" around the letters were created when I added the transparent background and they disappear against a black background. When I get a chance I'll work on a cleaner version.

[Edit: Custom image cleaned up to smooth transition to transparent background. Disregard previous comment.]
[Edit: 2009-03-30 Custom image resolution enhanced]

With this .zip you can use my mod with any firmware:

-Official: You don't need to use a pendrive.
-WDLXTV: You need to turn on with the osd.bin in a pendrive but later you can remove it. (Thank you b-rad)
-Ext3-boot: You must to keep the pendrive connected to WDTV always.

(see readme.txt)

Sorry for my english, as you can see in the home menu I'm Spanish.
