Are the images on that website in the correct format for direct upload?
The files on the logo site are just bitmaps. They aren't in a format that allows you to squirt them directly into the empeg, as it doesn't accept bitmaps. Complete details on the file format are available via the FAQ section of this BBS.
How would i use download.c to upload an car image and a home image?
The home and car logos are part of the same file. The home logo is the first half of the file, the car logo is the second half of the file. They both go together into the same chunk of flash. Generally, you send both to the player at the same time. I'm sure that with a little hacking, you could figure out how to send the home logo and the car logo seperately, but I wouldn't recommend it.
Remember that my logo editor allows you to cut and paste into the home and car slots separately, so what you should do is to assemble/edit them both they way you like them, then squirt them into the empeg.
Try this trick:
- Go to the logo site with Internet Explorer (this trick doesn't work with Netscape).
- Right-click on one of the images you like, and select "Copy" from the menu that appears.
- Open my logo editor.
- Select "Paste Car" or "Paste Home" from the menu.
See? You can copy and paste directly from the logo site that way. Drakino once said he would put that information on the page with the logos, but I haven't seen it there yet.
I'd like to have the default empeg logo in-home, and my custom image in-car.
This is currently not possible with the existing kernel. If you have a custom image on DC power, then there always will be a custom image on AC power as well.
You could make the custom AC image be a blank screen if you like. Or you could make it be the empeg or Rio logo if you can find a proper copy of one of those images.
