    Alternative Ultimo VFD layouts [uploads]

    I'm starting this thread so people can share their skin_display_picon.xml files!

    Everyone has their own taste and style so hopefully this can build into a useful thread of alternative VFD layouts!

    If you have a custom layout you would like to share, please zip and upload below with a screenshot.


    If you would like to play around with the default xml, it can be found in /usr/share/enigma2


    *Use the discussion thread to discuss the VFD, please don't comment here!*

    Word of warning for everyone on the ViX image: this does not work on the ViX image, in fact the box does not even start up!

    Well, it didn't of me anyway...

    It does mention VTI in the instructions so i would imagine that to get it to work on ViX would require some editing.

    It's just pulled straight out of the vti image, and will only work (as it is) with vti image.

    Hold the phone. Those images posted by phoenix show a blue VFD. Is it possible to change the colour of the VFD display? Are we 100% that it can only support 1 colour?

    Cheers, Lee
