BMP to Logo Tool

Step1: check have following files
=======================================
|- bmp to logo.exe ; application
|- PAL.par ; PAL parameter file
|- NTSC.par ; NTSC parameter file
|- README.TXT ;

Step 2. generate new logo
=======================================
1: Put this tool in one fold, for example: D:\BMPtoLOGO\*.*
2. prepare logo file, it should be 24 bit BMP format, and the size of input BMP file must be720*480(NTSC) or 720*576(PAL), and put this file on the same fold of the tool, for example: D:\BMPtoLOGO\*.bmp
3. Run "bmp to logo.exe"
Step1: Select "Open" to open D:\logo.bmp
Step2: enter size of logo in "Size", please do not input "bitrate" (the size is more bigger, the convert picture will be more clear)
Step3: select "Convert" button to generate object file, for example "D:\BMPtoLOGO\back_logo.m2v"
4.Use USB or LAN Tool Upgrade this logo file to your HD Receiver.

Use a USB stick to upload it

[eattheliving]

Use a USB stick to upload it

tried that as well mate. it uploads then says press info for details and under back_logo i get address error. nothing changes even after reboot

[michalsw]

I have managed to upload back_logo correctly
it works fine on menu background, but one booting, its still shows the other logo, anyway around that?
Any help would be much appriciated.

I too would like to know how to change the actual logo.... Though I guess its probably embedded in the system firmware..

[sudipta001]

i can not make file bmp 2 m2v,, anybody help...

[DW190]

I'd like to know how much time these people spend looking at the boot logo.

Easy way to change the view is leave the box switched on. No boot logo to bother with.

the boot logo,like the firmware date, is in the maincode which is encrypted and compressed.No way to change that.
Any back logo changing errors are usually due to the file/picture being the wrong size or format.

OpenBox S9 S10 Firmware Tool 0.3 by MST

Hi

Using either bmp_to_logo or DVDAuthorGUI I can produce a .m2v from a .bmp.
720x576 (Pal) 24bit.

OpenBox S9 S10 Firmware Tool 0.3 by MST will accept my .m2v file as both Back_logo and Boot_logo.
On firmware update and first boot, everything looks good.
However on future reboots boot image is either nonsensical linear colours or a "snowy" picture of last frame before S9 was rebooted.

Any suggestions?
Would be good to localize this box.

[slugworth]

there were threads on the subject on other sites.
I believe some versions of firmware didn't use a standard .m2v file for the boot logo.

[rumensat]

When analyze boot logo file you will see same header as m2v standard file. that's mean file is not compressed or encrypted.
may be it is in some different format or missing arguments?
end of file is different than standard one (00 00 01 b7)

boot logo picture size can be up to 62kb after that is another program.

start 1E0080 - end 1FFFFF

How much time do the sad people spend watching the boot logo that its so important.

It can be polka dotted for all I care as its only see it when the box boots.
