How would we know if they're the only signed files? (xex)

I wouldn't be surprised if they are signed. (theme files)

Ive already have the skin files that make up the Skin for the Menu on the Kiosk disc mapped out.

One thing to remember (after watching the interview with Mat Noguchi from Bungie) is that the processor interprets the bytes in a different order. The longs, integers, shorts in the files are stored in big endian format (correct me if im wrong). This will come in handy when mapping out the theme files.

yes, remember that the powerpc architecture (for whatever reason) uses Big Endian as opposed to Little Endian like the original Xbox along with all other x86 systems. It's a little anoying to me because I'm used to working with Little Endian values.

Also, it looks like the files are signed with an authentication certificate.

Looks like a 2048-bit SHA hash from 4h to 104h.

Thats what I was saying. Looking at the files, it does seem to correspond on the most part with that structure listed on Free60.org. No dice here i'm afraid fellas.

Thats too bad. I was looking forward to having a few custom themes

im having trouble reading the theme files? im just using hexworkshop to open what i think are the theme files in the items folder... it just looks like jibberish, is there a better way to open the files?

i know that we probably wont be able to make custom themes for some time but itd still be nice to crack open on to see what its like.

thanks

Well, actually, what you see is what the file is. Just random hexadecimals. You'd need to fully understand the encoding to have a "better way to open the files"

They signed XP theme files. (msstyles) I don't think anyone ever figured out how to sign them, they just edited the file used to check the signature.

According to free60, that file signature means that it's a "Generic Xbox 360 File Container".

A utility called PIRSTOOLS exists that purports to extract the contained files. The sources are intended to be compiled with Linux, but are likely to compile under CygWin for use on Windows.

The first release of PIRSTOOLS didn't support the kiosk theme files

, but see update here

this is great news! When do you think you will release it and will it completely extract theme files?

Yeah i tried manually inputting my own image. It wouldn't load the theme from the dashboard. I chose the interlacing PNG format since it was closer to the original size, maybe there is a small key which is calculated from the original file size of the image?

Hopefully somone knows what the rest of the mumbo means. Maybe a look in IDA?

Is there a way that you can use a memory card that has a them saved on it and hook it up to your PC to view the files?
