See  YAMJ_To_Mede8er software link.  http://www.mede8erforum.com/index.php?topic=1128.0

Small tip to tailor the about.jpg.  I looked for a way of doing this via the skin.propetries file for a YAMJ skin, but i could not find a way. So this is my work-around.

1.I have modified 1 image in the default skin for YAMJ – This default skin includes a ‘WATCH’ button to be used when actually deployed as a HTML page on a NMT.  The watch.png attached has been modified to be completely transparent.  So no ‘coding’ or java scripting design changes, it simply hides the word ‘WATCH’.  The YAMJ_to_Mede8er tool now generates a the about.jpg without the WATCH text.   Place the attached watch.png in the YAMJ install directory/skins/default/html/pictures/detail directory. Clear out any existing jukebox and re-generate.

2.Tson's 5150 Skin.  This skin includes 3 prominent buttons on the about.jpg – great for jukebox, not so great for a simple about.jpg.   MainNavCenter.png, MainNavLeft.png and MainNavRight.png are used for the buttons. Same deal – i have made them transparent. Place them in  YAMJ install directory/skins/5150/html/pictures directory and them regenerate.

All images in transparent.zip – before and after views of Tson 5150 skin included  for convenience.


With thanks for Peter Butler for YAMJ_to_Mede8er – making a good media player – just a little bit better!
