Skype Room System v3 app - Custom Themes?
Has there been an answer to this question? I would like to add my company logo to the background of our systems.

I apologize for the delayed response. The article mentioned above has recently been updated but I was wondering if the file had been placed in the
C:\Users\Skype\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.SkypeRoomSystem_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState folder. If so, I would recommend contacting support and they can route the issue to the appropriate group for follow up.

Hi Matthew,
I am having issues getting this working and cannot get the XML file to be processed. I have used the exact XML from the technet as a test case and it applied once, using the login details and it subsequently deleted the XML file (which it says it will do if all is good) so all looked good. I then tried a subsequent update to the XML and it won't take any notice of the XML, even when I just change the login details.
Has anybody got a valid XML file I can use as a base copy to get this working?
I can't deploy a custom background unless the XML is working and I have a customer needing a custom background.

Typical, after a day of failure and a post here, I now get it all working :)
I noticed Tobie had included a SkypeSettings.xml in his download (from his blog) and once I used this it all worked fine. I have added all the other elements to the XML and it processes it onb reboot without issue now. Possibly the XML format is very picky as I didn't use an XML editor, but I did clean up extra white space in the file and all is good.
The PSD file listed in the technet for the SRS background is very useful as there are limited spaces to actual add logos so you need to position things carefully.
