Custom OUYA Launcher

[InvaderGames]

Sorry was off for a while;

3 questions:
1. I'm running version 1.0.13, is this the latest version?
2. At the top right corner is the time and date, how do I switch the time from military to regular?
3. Has the wireless keyboard been implemented for easier typing of messages? You know instead of using daisy wheel

1. Yep, new updates will be downloaded automatically, in case they dont get installed you will at least know if there is a new one right in the launcher (I also post here the release notes on every update)
2. Isnt military 0400, 1800 and so? maybe you mean 12hr/24hs clock? (if so, it can be added as a setting, no problem)
3. No! I completely forgot to re-add legacy input methods, ill do it for .14 as this was requested a couple times already

This might be an idea, but do you think that there's a possibility users here can make wallpapers and then you can upload them into the next update or so? Like have a mini-server dedicated to storing some custom designs of the menu interface (like say a user has a "set" with a certain color scheme involved, and that color scheme/set is named after that user, and if another user wants to, they can use that set and all the buttons and wallpaper background will all change at one time). There are a few forums that have this kind of ability, like another I frequent called limpbizkit.org; they recently implemented this style interchangeability feature to all the banners/background/buttons. It's pretty awesome.

hmm like a way of submitting the whole thing, like a pulic repo of themes? (wallpaper+theme+highlights?) ..I see it pretty difficult to be done.. for the time being I don't see it as something needed or that many people will use enough to take the iniciative and actually do it. But I am definately open to take custom wallpapers to be added into the launcher, if you or anyone made some, just send them over

Any other date/time formats I shoud account for? it was suggested before by some people that lived on other countries where the date was usually written differently, but I cant remember..

Just triying to narrow it down to the formats people actually use

As far as 12/24 hour clock goes, I thought I'd point out that the 24-hour time format does not use AM/PM.

Common date formats I can think of:

YYYY/MM/DD (ISO)
DD/MM/YYYY (European)
MM/DD/YYYY (American)

When going into long date formats with day/month names, there's plenty of options and it only gets worse once you go across multiple languages. Might it be worth having a translatable string for this, so each language can have its own format? %WEEKDAY%, %DAY%, %MONTH%, %MONTHNAME%, %YEAR% as variables should be enough to cover most European languages from what I can think of.

Also, a lot of the text in this looks quite blurry on the 1080p TV here - does the app run in 720p internally?

lol, never noticed.. I guess I am so used to my Windows clock to be like that, that I never realized how redundant that is

I was actually thinking of making the text format string moddable so people can just type a new format and change the whole thing whatever way they like, right now the current format look like this:
"H:i A" (for the time: 20:11 PM)
"l F j" (for the date: Friday November 8)

This actually depends on the parser, but giving hints on the screen about what each character means shouldnt make it difficult for people to change it..

OR I could just go on and make two new settings buttons; one for time, another for date, where you simply change betweeb a set of common formats.

960x540 actually, 1080p/2 to minimize blurriness as much as possible (pixels scaled 2x up look better than pixels scaled ood numbers like 1.5x, 1.33x, etc)

Yeah should be doable, the only problem is to get the location, but if the users can input manually the location ID.. ill look into it
