Guidelines

The rule of thumb for rebranding is to remove any XBMC Foundation trademark, wordmark or logo that is user-facing and visible during normal operations of the product.

A non-exhaustive list of suggested items are:

• The default skin used by the product.
• Remove the main splash screen or replace them with suitably rebranded ones.
• The name of the default update repository (although sync'ing with the XBMC Foundation official repo is acceptable).
• Logos in Estuary or any other official skin if pre-installed.
• The new brand should have its own distinct privacy policy.
• Logos and marks (including favicons) for any pre-installed web interface(s).
• The default system names used for identification to networked services such as AirPlay and Bonjour.

All translations should also be included in these changes.

Building Rebranded Versions

To assist in the building of the rebranded versions, any 3rd party artwork placed into the special://xbmc/media/ folder will be used in place of the default XBMC Foundation logos.

Similarly the graphics in the following folders should be updated with vendor artwork, depending on which platform(s) are being built:

• Android https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/tree/master/tools/android/packaging/media
• Windows - https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/tree/master/tools/windows/packaging/media
• UWP - https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/tree/master/tools/windows/packaging/uwp/media
• Linux - https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/tree/master/tools/Linux/packaging/media
• ios - https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/tree/master/tools/darwin/packaging/media/ios
• osx - https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/tree/master/tools/darwin/packaging/media/osx
