Extra themes

Extra themes for PodBox, each modified to support dynamic colours
and art in lists. Scrim is not here: it ships with the firmware.

file	theme
themify_2.zip	themify_2
obsede_2.zip	obsede_2
bony.zip	bony
iclassic_square.zip	iclassic_square
iclassic_square_dark.zip	iclassic_square_dark
jive.zip	jive

Unzip onto the root of the player, so the .rockbox folder lands
on top of the one already there, then pick it under
Settings > Load Theme.

Each zip carries the fonts its theme needs, so they can be
installed in any order and on their own.

Windows simulator

The same build, running on Windows. From 274f7010f2235fb6ee825bd65216f37abe90712e on master.

file	player it simulates
simulator-ipod6g.zip	iPod Classic 6G/7G
simulator-ipodvideo-5g.zip	iPod Video 5G/5.5G

Unzip anywhere and run rockboxui.exe, keeping simdisk\ beside
it: that directory is the player's storage, and simdisk\.rockbox
is this build. Drop music into simdisk\ and the database will
find it. SDL is linked statically, so there are no DLLs to install.

Run it with --debugwps to trace skin parsing; F5 writes a
screendump into simdisk\.

art_fetch 3.8

Artwork fetcher for PodBox music libraries — Windows build of tools/art_fetch/art_fetch.py.

Creates square JPEG artwork for a library organised as artist folders containing album folders:

• artist artwork at Artist/folder.jpg
• album artwork alongside each album

Download and run; no Python installation needed. See tools/art_fetch/README.md for usage.

Versioned separately from the firmware releases — the tool has its own cadence.
