    It is possible to translate HyperCon to every language you want.


    1. Guidelines

    • The length of the phrases should not be longer as the current. It will blow up the left panel.
    • UTF-8: HyperCon read all translation files in utf-8. So please use this charset.



    2. Github Location

    Please copy the content of "language.properties" at our hypercon repository and create another .properties file. Insert your country code at the end of the filename (not the extension).
    Example: language_de.properties for germany or language_nl.properties for the netherlands.

    3. Translate
    The language file is seperated in each section of the corresponding HyperCon-Tab and a general section.
    The general section contains phrases that are often used (like "Enabled") and phrases that are not part of a Tab (system messages).


    On the left side you see the internal name and on the right side the translation.
    Now you need to translate everything behind the "="


    Example:

    Code
    ######### EXTERNAL TAB #########external.effect.booteffect.directorylabel              = Directory: external.effect.booteffect.durationlabel               = Duration [ms]:


    Where Directory: and Duration [ms]: is the part you need to translate (with ":")


    Please just create a pull request if you translated the whole file, we can´t accept half translated files.


    Thank you for your contribution!


    Welcome to the new "home" of Hyperion - the well known and beloved ambilight software.
    With this website we want to start a new era in terms of user experience (documentation) and we want to invite all interested developers to work together on amazing features.
    Use the possibility and be a part of it!


    This leads us to the following changes


    Forum
    The user and developer base has grown, more than tvdzwan and poljvd ever expected. This success needs a better platform where developers and users could discuss and come together.
    Also to keep better track of development and to establish a better communication from developer to developer for a better work experience and to gather easier user feedback during beta testing.
    --> the "Tutorial" section is more basic for now! We will work on this during the next weeks!
    Setting up your used hyperion devices at your profile now!


    GitHub
    We moved to a GitHub organization! tvdzwan and poljvd repos will be no longer used!
    The new organization is located here : hyperion-project
    Big thank you to MaikelH and team on Github. They owned the name for 3 years for their project and we asked if we could use it for our project! (domain <> organization).


    Hyperion Download
    Due to the point that Github-Releases don´t fulfill our needs we searched for another CDN system to store our files around the world.
    We ended up with sourceforge.net as best solution - for now.
    This brings also the possibilitie to gather better statistics regarding our target audience (platforms).
    Due to the point that Hyperion don´t call us!

    HyperCon moved also to this download location!


    Wiki
    The github wiki is not really - the - solution in terms of a good wiki. If you edit a page via browser we never got a notice or information what happend. Open or closed - nothing in between.
    Due to the big community it was also a wish to use a software that is easy to use and provides a multilingual feature.
    We found a very good solution - VaultWiki

    • VaultWiki is well connected with XenForo and have plenty of features.
    • The forum search searches also at the wiki for your phrase
    • You could use the (wiki) tag in [] to include wiki content in forum posts: example: [wiki]FAQ[/wiki] -> (wiki)FAQ(/wiki)
    • Your account is connected with the wiki and you use the same WYSIWYG editor
    • Everyone with a forum account could extend and modify the wiki
    • Moderated Wiki - the team could approve or decline changes
    • Full history and revert function.
    • Translatable in every language with easy management


    We reworked the whole wiki and extended it with a [wiki=HyperCon]HyperCon Guide[/wiki] and on top of this - all information is translated to [wiki=wiki-de]German[/wiki].
    It is also possible to translate HyperCon in your language too. You will find more information at the development section.
    You could easy link to it if you use the following url: wiki.hyperion-project.org.

    Logos
    A new website needs new logos, here we go! A clean design with a little bit color - a TV frame is always a good start if you want to represent an ambilight software ;)
    Also new icons for apps and our Kodi Addon are available for implementation.
    Thank you to @CertifiInsanity for these nice logo(s)!


    Kodi Addon
    We polished a little bit the Hyperion Kodi Addon and translated it to german.
    This Addon is now part of the official Kodi repository for easy installation!
    Currently in review stage.
    Have a look at the new wiki page: [wiki]Kodi Addon[/wiki]


    Apps
    We all know people love apps, you need an app for almost everything!
    At the moment we have just one app that is associated with the Hyperion project - the [wiki]Android Remote[/wiki]
    If you buy it, you support Hyperion to cover the ongoing costs and further development!


    There is also an iOS app out there, which is not associated with us - please take notice that every in app purchase is neither a support nor keeps Hyperion running.


    @Rick164 is working on a new multiplatform app available for:
    Windows Phone, Android, iOS (In this order ;) )
    With new functions! Stay tuned!



    Last words
    Also a BIG thank you to @Rick164 and @TPmodding who made this possible!
    And for all insiders - @tvdzwan and poljvd are still part of it - this is no pseudo-official page.
    Thank you for your trust - i wrote the first email to get in contact with you two months ago. We changed many things till now - but we made a big step for Hyperion and it´s future!
