Nice, I didn't know anyone was working on new features for the actual
software on the Squeezebox. And cool to see that you included my patches
for reduce brightness on screensaver.

So I wanted to check out if these patches can actually be applied to a
squeezebox. I only have a Touch, so that is the only device I tested it
with. First I updated the build.sh file a bit actually generate the
proper patch file automatically.

Results:
- It can be applied to the Touch
- I haven't done a lot of testing. Based very limited testing, I had to
remove two things. With the AutoSkin applet, the skin would switch back
from bit to small, even when using the remote. And the sleep menu wasn't
working, due to SlimBrowser. The build.sh file now also has an option to
blacklist certain files, so it is even easier to build.
- The digital clock screensaver isn't working (at least not the black
and transparent one, the blue matrix is working). Haven't looked into
that yet.
- I'll test more later. And when possible, I'll even try to fix a few
things so that the full patch can work on a Touch.

The build script produces the patch file, and the XML file that can
serve as a repo. The URL actually points to pssc's GitHub, but GitHub
pages should be enabled for that to work, and the patch and XML file
should be commited to gh-pages.



My patch: 'Reduce brightness when screen saver is active'
(http://server.vijge.net/squeezebox/) for Touch
Source code: 'GitHub' (https://github.com/danielvijge) for SqueezeCloud,
22tracks and YouTube (old version)
