    A new skin each day ?

    Does it exists a software allowing to change the skin (or maybe only the default background) every day for exemple, or each time we start the player ? I would like that !

    Thats an interesting idea, did you get the idea from psps? I don't know if its possible but sounds cool. If it was possible, instead of a day you could have it really short to make animations in the background, but I really doubt that it is possible.

    I think they should do that for the background picture. Like, every restart of the miniplayer, show a new random background.

    The iRiver clix has a function whereby, if you set the background to the default background, the background changes according to the day you are on. Like, monday has its own background, and the next day on tuesday, it changes to another new background. The monday background only comes back when it is the next monday again.

    Therefore, I think it is possible that Meizu could incorperate that. But IMO, it isn't such a HUGE necessity...

    Well the calendar is basically useless, Meizu could link filename to match time/calendar or day of the week, week or month etc and display the backgound that matches current date/time, you could also link txt files and mp3 to play on date/time also.
    There could be an dedicated calendar folder for this use.

    eg, 7-00-21-05-07.JPG display photo 7.00am 21 of may 2007
    BG-mon.jpg set as background every monday.
    BG-sep.jpg set background for september.
    (BG tag is use to set backgroud)
    9-00-01-05-07.txt display text file at 9.00am 1st may 2007
    16-30-23-12-07.mp3 play mp3 at 4.30pm 23 dec 2007

    This way the calendar could be use to display text note or voice notes or photos. The name of the file would have a time date plus optional file name format.

    I hope you understand the idea I am try to convey

    Yeah, definitely FirePower.

    I have been saying all this time, that the calendar is possibly the most useless function of the miniplayer. By making use of what you just mentioned above, it would be one of the most useful functions

    Internet has an answer for every question out there, not likely to be always the answer you're looking for.

    I suppose that if you leave your MiniPlayer plugged in for most of the day, you could set up a scheduled task to copy over a resource file every day - or something along those lines.

    i think you've already posted this idea before and i must say, i agree. i've been wanting a sort of reminder function for the calendar since before i got my m6. :D

    the background thing would be nice, but i'd prefer the reminders more.

    I would more likely see skin files, so you can add them to the M6 and then select them on the player... (then they can also add a sort of random or time related function for the skin
