Hi, we are building a new Launcher for our SPOT i5 & SPOT i7
This is just the first idea:
It must be IR remote responsive
Weather information
On focus, the small arrow will be animated to indicate there are more options there. On click, it will show the next 6 days:
Background
This is not easy. Our idea is to change the background accordly with the time. As example, morning, evening, night:
Morning
Evening
Night
Fixed icons (for now)
Those 4 icons on the top for now are fixed:
Players
MUSIC (this one must be replaced as music apps can be placed inside of "players"). Maybe we can put here a file browser.
APPS
Settings
Focused should be like this:
Second line
We fixed Kodi there, but it can be replaced. If we let users to customize we will find problems with Icons style. Even if we design a pack of icons... (some doubts here)
Also fixed "Games" but we think it be replaced.
INPHIC ONLINE SUPPORT. This is an online chat with our support team. It is ok there.
Central
For now a simple browser, we can launch a youtube video based on country and featured content from youtube (as this is the most popular). Then you can write on the text box and choose the platform (for now youtube, dailymotion...) and it will be opened in a new screen
Here there are lots of implementations. We hope it will be the core of our system as we plan to design a system bar too, and a content browser should be present there.
Favourite & Running APPs
Here the user can place his favourite APPs.
The ones at the right part (ghost effect) should be the ones running.
This part should be included on our new "System bar" to be available anytime, but that will come later.
We do not like too much this part, so it should be replaced by a more effective way.
OK, this is the main idea we are begining to program just now. Remember this is just an "Alpha" version.
Yes, we need a task-killer and maybe system performance information.
