I'm looking for a 94x82 glass apple tv button to put on a T2C. Anyone have one they are willing to share? Thanks.

Just position an apple icon of your choice under the blank button and label it Apple TV using TTD.

The problem with making new buttons is that (at least in my case) I could only extract the released state graphic and not the pressed state graphic from the bitmap library (I tried several hex rippers). This means that you need to modify the released state graphic to look like the pressed state and then layer the same icon on both. In my case I abandoned the green pressed state graphic and used custom pressed states on all of my buttons.

Couldn't find that exact size button, but here's mine (94 x 75):

Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.

Ok... did you extract the button images with a hex ripper? If so, which one. I have tried three or four and none of them could extract the entire set (including the pressed state blank)

Is that background from glass template? Or did you design it yourself?

Thanks for help. That was the perfect button size for me.

It was a while ago, but I used either xripper or bitmaprip. The "pressed" blank that I got out of it was a little messed up (weird pattern through it), but some fixing in Photoshop Elements was all it took. It takes a few steps to get the green glow "pressed" state for the icons I use, but they match up with the stock buttons nicely.

Here it is, if you still need it.

Thanks.

After I could not extract the pressed blank, I just created an illuminated white version of all the source buttons I use. They actually work better with a wider variety of color backgrounds than the green does.

Here are the graphics I am using for Apple TV:






Or these for any Apple Device (they look weird on a white background, but import well into theatertouch):






I'm curious to see what the graphics on your Apple TV pages look like. Did you just replicate the original remote buttons on the touchpanel?


I also made some for Sonos.. :-)
