The v0.35 release is ok ! Look at the first post ;)

I integrate this feature in a new release so it should be ok with the 0.35. :)

At the present time, you can't do that. But i have been thinking about a smarter scheduler that allows to change pictures following hours, minutes, seconds but also months. Just stay tuned :D

For all people who made pictures sets, thanks for your work. Tomorrow, i'll put your archives in first post and will make some screenshots to illustrate them :)

nice idea, thank you

This new version dont work with me again, back to the first one.:(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] ktsak:
My friend, the theme is too bright, so when you load it and have white font colour in home screen, it s impossible to read the text. Tried and it ws a little bit difficult
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gorrunwe:
Please precise what happens when you use the 0.35 release
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] speed200:
Thank you for the help, I´m having this popup after installing: there is not any picture in the \storage card\automaticwallpaperchanger directory or their names are bad formatted. Please put at least one jpeg which name is within the [00,23] interval then reinstall automaticwallpaperchanger...

The only version that works fine Is 0.20.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Brendo:
i want to try this, but not as mortscript versin. would be cool if it ran in the background as a service
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] MasterOfDesasters:
I am at home as my daughter is sick. so hopefully when she sleeps after lunch I have some time to try some others.

So stay patient :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] suiller:
no no no,in this way it would run all the time... sucking precious energy :p, the scope of this small script (thx to mortscript) is to insert the script itself into the notification queue, so it will busy the system for just 1sec every hour :D very very very economical way :cool:

Deleted; my fault!

Sorry
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gorrunwe:
Update !

First post updated (v0.50 release + Links to several pictures set)

Speed200 : try with the 0.50 release and tell me if your problem is solved or not

Suiller : thanks to your idea. This feature is added in the 0.50 release ;)

Enjoy !
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] suiller:
très bon travail ami... you're growing fast :cool:

I was thinking also that could be interesting, instead of having a calendar tab, have the calendar of the current month like a background with a jpeg ineherent to the current season... with the jpeg below perhaps I can give a better idea... comments are welcome :D

ps: to have better results it's a MUST having a semi-transparent clock, so is still possibile to see over it (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2570674&postcount=8)

bye,

davide
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gorrunwe:
Thanks Suiller

Your calendar background seems to be good. But the more i'm thinking about it, the more i can't see how to do this... Well we could use a picture per day but that means 365 pictures :eek:

About the glassclock, i'm totally agree and that is what i use in my diamond (look at the screenshots :D)

EDIT : apparently i read your last post too fast :p

Your idea includes 12 pictures, so ok. But i'm not sure that having text in background (the days table in your calendar) and text in foreground (time, phone call, calendar appointments) is a good idea :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] speed200:
I´m still having problems with the other set of pictures,with the moon one that you provided I don't have any problems, but with other set keep appearing the same message.

Could you provide all the set at once?

Best regards from Portugal.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gorrunwe:
You have to put the other sets at the same level than the "Moon" one.

E.g :

AutomaticWallpaperChanger contains Pictures

Pictures contains Moon, Car on the road, and the other sets

Moon, Car on the road and the other sets contains each several "xx.jpg" pictures where xx is between 00 and 23

Is it what you did ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] speed200:
Yes, later on at home I will try it again...

Thanks for your hard work.;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 12aon:
Hey so I had an idea about this script, I thought I'd learn about mortscript and then adjust the script a bit, and voila. The idea I had was instead of one set of picture's you have four sets, or one set of 92 pictures. For each season a different set, but I have a hard time figuring out how to change he script to skip to a different set(I think one should rename the sets of picture 100-123, 200-223,...-423). But this is over my novice head, so if anyone else (gorrunwe) thinks this could be fun, I hope they can implement it into the script. Since we already have some sets laying around, we could use those until some photoshop artist is able to create, spring, summer, winter and autumn sets. So a bit of food for thought i hope, cheers
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gorrunwe:
Hi man ! :)

Your post proves that i'm not the only one to be interested by this idea :D

Seriously, i'm thinking about a method that allows to specify a particular schedule on a set, BUT by not transforming the actual system into a impractical thing.

I mean, today we can schedule the display of a given set on a 24h period. It's simple and i want it stays simple.

But, i also want to introduce a more complex schedule system that can consider days, months and years. And also minutes and seconds
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 12aon:
So, does that mean that you want to completely rewrite the script? I really only thought about seasons as there are only four of those (and I would love to see the exact day on my screen with a nice snowy of leafy picture) . But there was one other thing I was wondering, Is it possible (albeit impractical, I know) to write a script that allows for the wallpaper to be changed in sat 1/24 of a second, so that we may see moving wallpapers etc. If Im struck with more ideas I'll keep you posted

hi guys,

i've a problem:i can't unistall this program.i unistall it,but the wallpaper in the main window(home) not change in original htc diamond black.

pliiizzz....don't tell me HR :o

thanks a lot
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] suiller:
yep... the default BG is a thing I didn't think... we should provide a very clean uninstall method... anyway you don't have to HR... I've to take back the original BG :D

gush! why I've not thought before... Julien I think it's enough to clear "" the string in the registry then after a reboot manila should take the default one, correct me if I'm wrong

Thanks people for your comments :)

Ok i will do this. This is pretty simple to implement such a feature :)

I think this is related to themes. I'll search as soon as i'll have little time

One more thing : i make links to pictures sets screenshots in the first post.

As i did this, i have several comments :

Car on the road : several pictures are missing (10->15, 17)

Worldrotate cutted : it's my opinion but your earth seems to rotate strangely :)

Htcroad : colors seems to be weird. That is also my opinion ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] suiller:
hi Julien... I'm proud of you, you are doing a very good job :D

anyway I noticed that jpeg files are not well compressed, for who didn't know exists a professional software able to re-compress with a special alghorithm all jpegs, making them smaller of 60/70%

this is a great improvement, files size apart, the compression method used stresses a bit less the CPU, so image can be loaded faster

this software is called JDO & I've made a simple interface (here) to load and process un-optimized jpegs

You'll be surprised how much can be re-compressed jpegs

I'll suggest also to resize images at 320x240 (always trought jdo), there is no real difference in the small diamons display

note: the only bad note about this software is that the application leaves a small "watermark" in the upper-left corner of the processed image, anyway it is very small and absolutely not visible

I am using Spb mobile shell. Installation was fine but don't seems to work. Any advice?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gorrunwe:
I have never used Spb but i think your problem comes from the fact that AutomaticWallpaperChanger use the HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeBackgroundPath registry key which is linked to TouchFlo :(

So if you or anyone else can give me the registry key or any other property (e.g : in a config file) that allows to change the wallpaper in Spb, it would be cool :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gorrunwe:
By the way i just update the first post with a "Todo" section.

Hello Lisa,

At the moment, yes, this application is designed only for the HTC Diamond. Personally, i don't see any problem to adapt it to your Samsung Omnia... Except that i don't know how to change the wallpaper on such a device ! So you or someone else will have to tell me what is the registry key / file to modify :D

@ Davidebeatrice : thanks for your update my friend :D I'll update the "Car on the road.zip" file as soon as possible.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] lisa_sg:
thanks for your response, gorrunwe.

i have an IT nut. Hence, hopefully someone else who owns an Omnia can help me out with this problem i.e. the registry key / file to modify :D

Till then, i will come in every day to see any luck.

Love,

Any help with Samsung Omnia?

plssssssssssssssssssssss help.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gorrunwe:
Hello everyone !

After a week of silence, here are some news (and answers) :

First, i'm working on the scheduler (see the first post). This is pretty difficult as now AutomaticWallpaperChanger uses, for each set, a config.ini file that contains instructions for every picture (the first time it should appear and its time period). That means several complex situations (e.g : 2 pictures with 2 different periods that have to be set as wallpaper at the same moment). Anyway, this will be complete in a few days :)

About the clean uninstall feature, it is ok. This will be in the next release too.

Concerning the questions :

Q : Is it working on Manilla 2D / other WM devices ?

A : No. But if you are interested to make AutomaticWallpaperChanger compliant to such environnments, you just have to give me the registry key / file that contains the picture path.

Q : I just make a wallpapers set and I want it to be published on this topic

A : upload it on the forum or, if you cannot do that, send it to me (gorrunwe AT gmail DOT com)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Vilcek:
sorry what you mean by registry key / file ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Zekee:
Hi to gorrunwe. Thank you for developing such a cool and handy application. However i have some requests here in the forum. Seems like there are peopl who share the same idea as me. Would you take a look at this and see if you can implement something like this? -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=2812349#post2812349
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gorrunwe:
I mean the item that allows to change the wallpaper. In HTC Diamond, it is the HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeBackgroundPath registry key that allows this.

The purpose of AutomaticWallpaperChanger is to set wallpapers following events. At the moment, it uses the time (year, month, day, hour, etc...) but i have already imagined other things such as weather. Why not Battery life ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Vilcek:
ok its HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeBacnkgroundPath

\BgSwitch\14.jpg

Hope this helps...I am using HTC Kaiser....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] shadeone:
i think the weather implementation would be absolutely brilliant!

as of right now there only needs to be 24 images for a full cycle right? well if the weather was implemented that would result in a LOT of images depending on how many different weather differences you had... (how many differences does the diamond have??)

if you went with just the basic sunny, partial clouds, fully cloudy, rainy, stormy, that would be 5 x the 24 images for the cycle equalling 120 images

anyways, once I get a video tv tuner for my laptop im going to make some good cycle images using screenshots from the map editor from the new xbox 360 game "Far Cry 2". in this editor you can create maps for the multiplayer portion of the game and it lets you choose what time of day (down to the minute) you want your map set in and the sun shows in the sky at the appropriate setting. there is also a storm factor that you can set from 1-100 percent so if the weather thing ever gets implemented we could do something with it here too...

check out some demos of the day/night cycle from the game:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdebrRrwTHo

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnvFbUSzkWY

What I want to do is make a map with a simple beach/palm tree scene and then take screenshots of every hour mark and crop the shots down to the size needed for this wallpaper cycler. it would be perfect!

shade
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gorrunwe:
Not exactly :

in the present release (0.50) you can name your pictures "xx.jpg" where xx is between 00 and 23. And for example, if you have a 06.jpg and a 09.jpg (and not 07.jpg nor 08.jpg), then the 06.jpg picture would be displayed from 06h00 to 09h00.

in the upcoming version, your pictures can be named as you want. The schedule feature is driven from a "config.jpg" file that allows you to set a begin time and a period for each picture (e.g : with the previous example, you would have a "2008_10_23_06_00_00" for the begin time and "0000_00_01_00_00_00" or "0000_00_00_24_00_00" for the period)

Great idea ! Tell us when you'll have something to show :)

Gorrünwe,

Does touchflo need to be enabled for this to work? I plan on getting the Touch Pro when it comes out on AT&T in the next couple of weeks and I might be disabling touchflo while I test some things out with my current SPB software. Just wanted to know if the background changer will still work?

also, what happens when you switch to landscape mode? is there a setting for it to scroll through a new set of images that are in landscape?

Also, InT-2k, is it possible to do a version of the "Sunstand Europa cutted" with the focus on North America for your overseas friends?? ;)

shade
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gorrunwe:
At the moment, yes. But i have been preparing a release that will make AutomaticWallpaperCompliant compliant with several environnments and devices.

So if you want it to be SPB compliant, all you have to do is to give me the parameter that allows to set the wallpaper :)

Looks great.

I had a Sony VAIO C1 laptop a number of years ago that did the same thing. It changed through sixteen wallpaper - four per day - and then four new ones each season. The only problem on a PC is it runs the wallpaper app as .html and a lot of people were getting viruses.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] chronster:
This is great, thank you so much.

At first I thought to myself, "hey wait I don't want a different image every hour" then I realized, "just copy 3 images for the different hours of the day, duhhh."

I'm working on a program in VB.Net to turn like 4 images into 24 based on the 00-23 filename, and also specify which images get which group. So if I had 3 images, I could say, I want image1 to have 00-06, image2 to have 07-15, image3 to have 16 - 23.

I'll post it when I'm finished. It should compliment this script nicely. All one would need to do after running my utility is drag and drop the new directory into their script folder.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Vilcek:
Hi guys so anything for KAiser yet? I am still waiting...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] chronster:
Ok, I'm adding a little bit to this thread.

I made a new set of images. I like them. Made them with photoshop. Hope someone else likes them also. (chronsterSky.zip)

I also wrote a small program in VB that lets you add your files to a list and it will name them for you and put them into a directory. It's a little buggy, but works for the most part. If you have 3 images you want stretched accross the day, just add the 3 images to the list and the program will evenly distribute them into 23 files. If you've got a large number of files and don't feel like naming them, just add them to the list in the order you want them to appear and the program will name them. I've found a bug where if I add 15 files, it doesn't get through the list correctly. I'll fix this in future versions, but for now, this should help people quickly name the files the correct way needed for this script. (outputDir.zip)

Also have an image pack which is basically 4 different images stretched across the day. They are just images of nature during a time of the day...(chronsterDayNight.zip)
