Arclight theme for 31-fixes?
Hello,
I just updated my system to 31-fixes, including a new frontend in the
living room. I notice that the Arclight theme seems to have dropped off the
map from the themes downloader. Is there anyway to find that theme and
install it manually?

The author left the project many years ago,but the files are still on
github..   https://github.com/MythTV-Themes/Arclight

I don't know if it will work on 31-fixes..

Good luck

You can pull all the theme packages from
http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/mythtv/themes/

This is ultimately where the frontend will actually pull
them from using the built in downloader.

Latest i can find for Arclight is for v29,
so no idea if any bits are broken on v31 or not.

Please report back on what works / doesn't work.

If it works well enough we can branch it in the
repo and it'll be auto packaged again. Equally if
it needs fixes, and you are able to do them, we can
put them in as well.

Regards
Stuart

The basics all work on my frontend running the development tree. I can
watch recordings, watch video, play music, and look at images.

Well, that’s not true, still active.

I upgraded from Mythtv 29 to 32/master a month ago, haven’t seen any issues with Arclight 28.01 (28.1), using TV/Video/Music/Images.

There might be some new features, which are missing in the Theme since Mythtv 28/29, so any pointers and patches are welcome.

As Mythtv versions come quicker, it would maybe make more sense to write a note in the themes themeinfo/detail/description with which Mythtv versions the theme is compatible.

@stuart, when it would make sense to update the tag, please let me know what to do.

Angela

Hi Angela,

It doesn't work that way. The theme packaging script packages up the
relevant branch for a given release

Typically that means that you create fixes/30, fixes/31 etc as branches
and we update the packaging script to pull from those branches.

These are then made available


Regards
Stuart

I've added fixes/29, fixes/30, fixes/31 to the theme packaging

We don't yet package a fixes/32 branch from any theme.
We typically cut these branches around the time of a release.

The themes get packaged around 4am/pm GMT and synchronized
out to the mirror within the hour.

So you should see it available in the next 12 hours or so.
