Hello everyone,

I downloaded a MIBAND-4 theme,

I followed the steps shown with watchfaces, during the second compression step to have the modified .bin file, the message below is reported in the _packed.log file.

N.B: The error message is reported even if I do not make any changes to the uncompressed .bin.

error :

Fatal|[ERROR] Watchface is greater than 321kb, it will not be accepted by Mi Band 4, please reduce size! Current size:844kb.
Fatal|System.ArgumentException: [ERROR] Watchface is greater than 321kb, it will not be accepted by Mi Band 4, please reduce size! Current size:844kb.
à WatchFace.Program.PackWatchFace(String inputFileName)
à WatchFace.Program.Main(String[] args)
The bin file is too heavy, you need to reduce the bin size

Hello,
first case: I do not change the photos.
second case: after modifying .png images, the total file size is less than 321 KB.
in both cases, I receive the same error message

Can anyone pls tell me what is json file and how to edit it? I want to create a custom watch face.
cmiiw
.json is a configuration for element like number, icon,etc. located inside watchface .bin (generated after unpacking).
to edit .json file use any text editor, i recommend notepad++
