Boot logo - how to change?
- Thread starter goral

I flash image OBH from my backup, and VTi logo is still presents.
So it is only one option - flash clean image OBH and then flashing image from backup?
What you call boot logo is the splash screen: you still have the VTi one because OBH backups haven't the BH splash screen stored (there is no OBH specific one: the installation files of OBH contain the traditional BH splash screen).
So, you need to take this splash screen from an image installation file, unzipping it.
It is located in the most internal folder of the structure and it's named
splash_auto.bin
Put it into a flashdrive with the usual structure for the flash.
For instance, if your box is a Solo4K, it must be within the folder
/vuplus/solo4k
Then flash as usual; only you'll be flashing only this file. But mind to create the whole structure for flashing, as I wrote.

Do you think, If I add splash_auto.bin file from image to backup image (keeping file structure) it will flash backup im age with splash screen?
I just don't want brick my box
One more q. If I setup multiboot, and I will be want back to default setting- do I just need flash fresh image?

Exactly, as Ev0 said and as I already wrote you: "...flash as usual; only you'll be flashing only this file...", there's no need to reflash everything: only and just that file. But the folder's structure must be the usual for the whole image procedure, with the whole structure. Very simple.
updating the splash screen will have no effect on timers, epg or anything else, other than changing the splash screen image.
I confirm: don't do a witch-hunt. Are you sure you put only that file in your pendrive? If so, your problem is not related to the flashing of a bitmap file!
No, because we don't like to adorn our images with superfluous things. We always want to "try" to reduce the boot time, always giving priority to memory for any other type of things, and always redirected to the most important ( performance ).

As many people call "bootlogo" the splash screen, if you are talking about it the answer is no: splash screen is a bmp fixed type file. You can use another splash screen but you can't use whatever file you like as splash screen: it must have the resolution, the colour scheme and bit depth exactly like the splash screen has.
If you are talking about the real boot logo (the one with, for example, the text "OpenBH 5.0" and the background with clouds) that is possible to change from the Addons panel, but it's always a picture, not a "movie".
