[mythtv-users] hacked myth skin for softsqueeze

[Gary Dawes]

I've been running slimserver on my myth box for a while now, streaming to
softsqueeze running on various PCs.

I've seen various posts on the mailing list about a client for myth. After
seeing a post on the slim forums, about skin creation for softsqueeze, I've
started hacking about with the transporter skin within softsqueeze. I've
used transporter as it has the twin screen, allowin g for more eye candy

I've basically replaced the background, and changed the size and position of
the vfd panels to a layout more suitable for the screen., and then
repackaged the jar file. Note that I'm not a good enough coder to start
changing the source code.

I'm now trying to sort a lircrc file for softsqueeze. the other main issue
is that the screen does not scale, as it is fixed at 800x600, although it
may be possible to create skins for different res screens.

Give me some feedback, if anybody is better at any of this than me, then
tell me how to do it properly.

Regards

Gary
