VU+ Duo2 display screen

[Andy_Hazza]

Hi peeps,
I recently bought a VU+ Duo2 from WoS and loving the box loads. I have just about set the box up how I want it but have a slight niggle with the display screen when the box is in standby mode. The date font is too big and is too long and was wondering if I can alter so that the date n time etc is fully shown rather than say '16 August 2' instead showing '16 August 2013' ?? Can anyone help me pllllleeeeaaaassseeee??

Thanks in advance.

go to plugins choose LCD4Linux and adjust it ...

Moved you thread to here as that's a more appropriate sub-forum.

Yes indeed: the plugin allows you to change almost all that's being displayed on the LCD.
Bets would be to give it a try yourself; that way you'll find your way around fast enough. You coud also use one of the uploaded configurations, and see if it suits you.

Hi All,

I have set up my colour LCD screen to how I want it, It's the 2nd display that's the little niggle is on when on standby. I've looked in the LCD plugin but can't see anything that relates to that?

Thanks in advance again, much appreciated.

'the 2nd display' means you have an external display attached?

have you press Blue button on LCD4All that will bring more and more options...

[Rob van der Does]

The blue button will only lead you to the screen-setup for different circumstances (such as standby).

or what you can do ;

you can enter

DUO2IPnumber/lcd4linux/config

on your web browser and you can do settings on your pc/mac...

I'm having the same problem with VFD display on Duo 2, In standby the text is too big for the display and is too far down so the bottom half of the display is chopped off. Don't know how to correct this, there doesn't seem to be a setting for it in LCD 4 Linux!!

[Rob van der Does]

There are soooo many settings in L4L; you must look hard to find all relevant options.
And I'm convinced your issue can be fixed by one of those.

I think it has something to do with picon sizing, I will have to go through it with a fine toothed comb lol

Just so we are clear, you are talking about the screen in the middle of the front panel, aren't you?

[taximonkey]

Yes Clabs the VFD screen in the middle, not the LCD screen that works fine.

Thought so buddy. There aren't any settings in LCD4L that will adjust the VFD.

I am on Vix build 750 but I think this has never been a problem for me on any previous builds. You talk of Picons which sounds like you have downloaded one of the display plugins from the feeds. If you have, then the problem will be with that, I would imagine.
