How to apply 1080P skins?

[user68]

None of the 1080P skins in the plugin downloads Skins1080P folder work for me on my Solo2 / VIX Apollo 118. I have 1080P selected in AV settings. I've tried multi/50hz/60hz but it makes no difference. My LG TV shows it is receiving a 1080P signal through the HDMI cable connected directly to the Solo2. I tried Just Scan and 16:9 but it makes no difference. I get a large empty box in the centre of the screen and the menus are shifted to the right. It's a mess. Is there anything else I have missed to set this up correctly?

Using 1080 skins here on a Solo2 without issue.
In AV settings, I only use 1080i though & Refresh rate = multi, maybe try that.

Thanks Judge, I've tried 1080i but that gives me the same result as 1080P

Did you activate a 1080p skin?
Menu > Setup > System > User interface > Skin setup

[user68]

Yes, the 1080P skin is activated

This sounds like an issue another user mentioned. Hmmm
Can you post a screenshot to confirm please.?

[user68]

OK, I'll post a screen shot in the morning

Rossi, I've used your 1080 skins on multiple boxes over the holiday period, no issues besides VU slow buffer on boxes.
ET, TM, GB all working fine on various TV's.

I did have an issue when I first tried to use a 1080 skin on my VU+ Duo2.
Something wasn't right with the framebuffer stuff and the positions/sizing of the skin were really messed up...

after a reflash it was fine.

All your skins have worked fine on the Duo2 apart from the issues we have with Bello

That's exactly how my solo2, in fact all my receivers are setup without any issues using the 1080 skins.

Hi,
I had the same experience as pembo on my Duo2. When OpenViX changed to full HD skins I only did an update and 1080 skins where a mess. After backup, fresh flash and restore everything was fine.

vu have said there fixing something in drivers so maybe the new drivers might help for the random reports of the skins not working.

[user68]

I've attached some screen prints of what I see when I use any of the 1080P skins.
