Absolutely.. for defining the brushed edges of the DVD player, apparently.
Photoshop chokes on the RAW files in the resource folder of the DVD player, and they seem to hold the key to the displaying of the window edges.. any ideas on how to edit these kind of files?

photoshop does an educated guess on the image's proportions but then totally misrenders it and is unable to save it back...

See if GraphicConverter will do it any better, because it can also read/write .raw images.

I don't know why they chose to use .raw files, but I do know how to edit them. I've actually changed them for a though iFix dvd update.
Drag on of them onto Photoshop. You will be presented by a dialog that lets you describe the file.
Change channels count to 4 and interleaved. To figure out the width and height, simply look at the corresponding picture in the DVD player.rsrc. The "ControllerMainVer.raw" corresponds to the "Controller Main Ver" in the .rsrc PICT files. So copy that and create a new document in Photoshop to see the proportions, which in this case is 136x190. Enter that in the description of the .raw file and it should open.
Change channels to multichannel and then RGB. Make you changes and then choose multichannel and then CMYK. Save the file and you are done.

awesome max.
when i open the example you mentioned, it gets a copper-ish shade to it.. does it only use one of the channels to actually display it as a grayscale brushed metal tone?

You have to go into Channels and change it to multichannel. Then change it to channels - RGB and it will look as it should. Before you save it, you need to make it as it was by going into Channels- Multichannel and then channels - CMYK.
