Splash Screen

Anyone know where I can change the Default.png image into a .m4v video to make a video splash screen? This would be awesome :-)

Video splash screen - you guys are always thinking! The new release supports image splash screens and I'm already thinking of ways to do it different with videos! Good stuff. This will be a difficult design for a few reasons, mostly releated to the way Android / iOS handle videos and the need to establish a 100% 'loaded app' before playing media. I'll look into this - seems worth doing. Maybe the best idea I've heard in awhile ;-)

Possible bug in 1.5 splash screen being pulled via html? 2011-03-21 16:48:43.671 isabelledutoit[15742:207] BT_downloader: downloadFile: htthttps://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-h2TRcDgOs3M/TXGgVSorrGI/AAAAAAAAAIo/ruGXtUhczx0/s1600/IsabelleduToit_ResourcesFullDetail1.jpg 2011-03-21 16:48:43.672 isabelledutoit[15742:207] BT_screen_splash: downloadFileStarted: starting download... [Switching to process 15742 thread 0x207] sharedlibrary apply-load-rules all Current language: auto; currently objective-c NOTE: The htthttps part in above looks like it might be a problem but not certain. Anyway, the app just hangs on iPad 4.3 simulator and buzz touch 1.5 when user presses the refresh icon. Any ideas?

Example: downloadFile: htthttps://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-h2TRcDgOs3M/TXGgVSorrGI/AAAAAAAAAIo/ruGXtUhczx0/s1600/IsabelleduToit_ResourcesFullDetail1.jpg Note: When I build it for 4.21 or 4.3 there are no errors (iPad simulator), but after the initial successful curl splash screen displayed, and I then pressed the refresh button it fails to re-display the splash screen after the initial successful launch. This is rather funky, as it works the one minute, then when one presses the refresh button it fails in the simulator for the iPad using 4.3. Success: 2011-03-21 17:18:46.998 isabelledutoit[16105:207] BT_screen_splash: animating splash screen ....and the app runs ok on ipad 4.3 simulator on initial run, but then when you hit refresh...the screen goes black and it never loads the splash screen.

It seems that you're having lots of different troubles on iPad but not iPhone - right? Does this mean the above works on iPhone but not on iPad?

Well that is what it appears to be like at the moment. I just tried switching to the iPhone4.3 simulator and a) it loads perfectly initially and b)the refresh also works. 2011-03-21 17:23:54.364 isabelledutoit[16131:207] BT_screen_splash: downloadFileInProgress: 100% 2011-03-21 17:23:54.522 isabelledutoit[16131:207] BT_fileManager: saveImageToFile: IsabelleduToit_ResourcesFullDetail1.jpg 2011-03-21 17:23:54.522 isabelledutoit[16131:207] BT_screen_splash: downloadFileCompleted: Success 2011-03-21 17:23:54.522 isabelledutoit[16131:207] BT_fileManager: getImageFromFile: IsabelleduToit_ResourcesFullDetail1.jpg 2011-03-21 17:23:54.523 isabelledutoit[16131:207] BT_fileManager: File does exist in cached directory: IsabelleduToit_ResourcesFullDetail1.jpg 2011-03-21 17:23:54.524 isabelledutoit[16131:207] BT_screen_splash: setImage 2011-03-21 17:23:57.525 isabelledutoit[16131:207] BT_screen_splash: animating splash screen

Not sure what to advise then. We've not done much with the new Xcode (yet) but hope to. Sigh...doubt it's related to the Objective-C source because it wouldn't work in any device if it were - right? Who knows at this point.

Thanks David. I agree and will keep experimenting. It does not appear to be code related. It even runs initially on the iPad 4.3, correctly shows the splash, but then the refresh makes it go into void aka black screen.
