    VIX Image picons

    I have just changed images from DreamEliteBH 133F to VIX 1.1, all seems good to go but I can't seem to find out how to install picons with this image, obviously its just my stupidity so could someone point me in the right direction.

    Cheers

    create a folder on ur usb or hdd name it picon now copy all picons into this folder directly with no subfolders.
    plugin ur usb into the rear of the duo
    goto menu>setup>VIX>skin settings and choose the location (recommended to be on a usb)
    restart GUI

    u should be able to see ur picons now

    PS: if needed picons can be downloaded from here

    What image are you using? If using VIX you need to set your mount point in device manager.

    What picons are you using? Are they names by channel reference number?
