# Aerial theme for SDDM
SDDM theme with Apple TV Aerial videos
Videos are played randomly and different playlists are used based on time of day (only day and night diferenciation, night between 5pm - 5am) its possible to tweak to have more time diferentiation, the one used is provided with the videos.
### Dependencies
It is necessary to have the Phonon GStreamer backend for qt5, GStreamer ffmpeg Plugin and GStreamer Plugins Good
- For Arch linux : `pacman -S gst-libav phonon-qt5-gstreamer gst-plugins-good qt5-quickcontrols qt5-graphicaleffects qt5-multimedia`
- For Gentoo : these settings allowed me to make the theme work
* `media-libs/gst-plugins-good`
* `USE="alsa gstreamer qml widgets" dev-qt/qtmultimedia`
* `USE="widgets" dev-qt/qtquickcontrols`
* `dev-qt/qtgraphicaleffects`
* `USE="gstreamer" media-libs/phonon`
* `media-plugins/gst-plugins-openh264` (optional for video)
* `media-plugins/gst-plugins-libde265` (optional for video)
- For Kubuntu: `apt install gstreamer1.0-libav phonon4qt5-backend-gstreamer gstreamer1.0-plugins-good qml-module-qtquick-controls qml-module-qtgraphicaleffects qml-module-qtmultimedia qt5-default`
- For Lubuntu 22.04: `sudo apt-get install gstreamer1.0-libav qml-module-qtmultimedia libqt5multimedia5-plugins`
- For Debian 12 LXQt: `sudo apt-get install gstreamer1.0-libav qml-module-qtmultimedia libqt5multimedia5-plugins`
- For Fedora 36 LXQt spin: `sudo dnf install git qt5-qtgraphicaleffects qt5-qtquickcontrols gstreamer1-libav`. Make sure setup [RPM Fusion Repo](https://rpmfusion.org/Configuration) first to get gstreamer1-libav package.
Havent tryed for other distros...
### Installation
Simply clone the repository and copy it to `/usr/share/sddm/themes/` like this:
```
git clone [email protected]:3ximus/aerial-sddm-theme.git
mv aerial-sddm-theme /usr/share/sddm/themes
```
*Note that super user priviledges are needed to move files into that directory.*
The theme can be tested by running `sddm-greeter --test-mode --theme `
### Other notes
This theme streams the HD videos so a good internet connection is necessary.
If there is no active connection or the video can't be played the background will fallback to the image background.jpg
If you wish to play local videos files just use the following command to generate the playlist-file (playlist_day.m3u or playlist_night.m3u) from a directory containing the videos:
`find -maxdepth 1 -type f > `
If you would like to use the same videos but offline, simply download them using your shell, e.g. :
```
while read -r link; do
wget "$link"
done < playlist_file
```
### Changing settings in `theme.conf.user`
You can change a few settings in this file
- `dayTimeStart` and `dayTimeEnd` - set your day start/end time
- `bgImgDay` and `bgImgNight` - default background day/night image, now support GIF animated image
- `bgVidDay` and `bgImgNight` - video day/night playlists
- `displayFont` - font
- `clockFontSize`, `dateFontSize`, `labelFontSize`, `errorMsgFontSize` and `actionBarFontSize` - customize font size
- `clockFontColor`, `labelFontColor` and `actionBarFontColor` - customize font color
- `dateFormat` and `timeFormat` - customize [date and time](https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtqml-date.html) format
- `showLoginButton` - if set to false will hide the login button
- `showClearPasswordButton` - if set to false will hide the clear password button that appears when text is inputed
- `passwordLeftMargin` and `usernameLeftMargin` - set margin between input boxes and labels, some fonts are messy and allows fixing of overlap
- `relativePositionX` and `relativePositionY` - position the login text box and clock
- `showTopBar` - if set to false will hide the wm/keyboard top bar
Example config (not the same as the screenshots):
```
[General]
bgVidDay=playlist_day.m3u
bgVidNight=playlist_night.m3u
displayFont="Misc Fixed"
showLoginButton=false
passwordLeftMargin=15
usernameLeftMargin=15
showTopBar=true
```
### Note that some configs names have changed from previous values:
```
day_time_start => dayTimeStart
day_time_end => dayTimeEnd
background_vid_day => bgVidDay
background_vid_night => bgVidNight
languageBoxFontSize => actionBarFontSize
```
