Subject: Color schemes collection!
Allright, I started to think to this topic since I know that the color schemes are customizables.  :-D
So here it is, I hope this topic is going to have a great success in the Vibez community.
If a moderator wants to correct my english mistakes, no problem, I don't care, I just want to help a little bit this fantastic community!

I think that the first thing I have to say is that you have to upgrade your firmware to the last version (the 1.13 firmware that you can find on this website: http://www.trekstor-uk.co.uk/beta/update-vibez-beta-v1.13.…). Actually, you can follow the firware evolution in this topic http://www.riovolution.org/thread/794 .
Big thanks to Defector!

Then, you have to create your own template.scm.
For this, I quote Defector: 
In scheme selection menu, holding down right now saves current scheme as a template. See ".private/template.scm".

Once you have copied this file on your hard drive you can modify it with your notepad or another text editor.

In this file you can find some lines with a quick description of the item which is going to be modified by the color code that you are going to find at the bottom of the same line.
This code is a hexadecimal code that you can convert to a RGB color via this website: http://www.bumblemonkey.com/picker/picker.html

I have to recall you that I am a french user of the Vibez, so I don't understand all the lines in the template.scm file. But there are some which are very logical.

Once you have modified your file, you have to copy it in a folder of your Vibez but not in the ".private" one, the Vibez can't find it.
Then you can unplug your USB cable and go to the following menu: Setting/Display Scheme/Add Background.
Browse your folders to the template.scm file that you have just uploaded and select it (it should appear as a thumbnail with some squares of differents colors), the player asks you to copy or not this file, copy it of course.

Then you have to go to the previous menu, chose "Color Scheme" and apply the one that is called "TEMPLATE"
Allright, that's done! Check all your menus for eventual bugs.

I hope this is going to help people who want a Vibez with their own color schemes!

The next step is to share your custom color schemes with us via this topic!!

Here is mine but it is not finalized at all.

Good luck!

Thanks



You can also copy *.scm to .private/scheme and after choose it from the schemes menu. Thus eliminating one step:)

Ohh yes, I forgot this little thing, thanks a lot! It would be a great thing if somebody could create a little software to edit the schemes with a graphical interface.

The 'standard' background is changed by the SCREEN_TOP_NORMAL_BACKGROUND & SCREEN_BOTTOM_NORMAL_BACKGROUND properties.

These values usually have the same value. You get some trippy results if you make them different!

Playing with these a bit I've noticed that not all visuals are taking not of these values and you're ending up with a black background regardless. I'll fix these for the next release.

In fact he has inverted the colors in the menus. The text appears in white and the background in black.

I tried to create a scheme which could recall the colors of the vibez's box.

Downloaded Pri3t's. Nice.
Looked at the SCM file... um WOW! Is there anything you cannot change the colors of?!? Very cool. Hell you can change the color of the hour glass.
Anyone figure out what the VU METER LOW/MID/HIGH means? Kind of curious about that one.

DL'ing Pingoa's....

Very nice, can you tell me how you change the color of the folders in the folder view?

Hmmm... that is a good question, I don't know exactly what line corresponds to the folders' colors but there are so much items that you can modify...
