    Show picon in recordings

    When i view a recorded programme and press for the 2nd info bar I have the picon place holder but no picon. How do I get the picon to show. I am using the confluence skin with the MK picons.

    I think this is the Confluence Skin? If so I believe @Rossi - the skin Author - is looking at this. Please see post http://www.world-of-satellite.com/sh...l=1#post358726 and an earlier post http://www.world-of-satellite.com/sh...l=1#post357554

    For the Confluence Skin by @Rossi, just incase @Rossi has not got to this yet, here is the fix to the file skin_ViXBMC_1080_Common.xml on path Root\usr\share\enigma2\ViXBMC_1080_Common

    See Before and After screen shots and a skin_user .xml that goes on path Root\etc\enigma2. If you are using a skin_user file already, just add this small section.

    @Rossi - Could you answer a question for me please? I am wondering how the screens that you write are tied to the remote and skin? For example in the first ViXBMC_1080 skin the GraphicalEPG screen is screen name="GraphicalEPG" and in the ViXBMC_1080 Confluence derivative the "GraphicalEPG" screen is screen name="GraphicalEPGPIG" - I am just wondering how this relationship is set? Also is there a "quick" way of knowing what is the active screen in the skin so that a person can easily locate it and customise? Thanks for the great work.

    AFTER:

    Change as skin_user:

    No you don't. Removed the above 'fix' and picon returned when pressing info.

    Please read this post -> here

    The code around "Eventview" screen and "Info" button for Live TV AND "EventviewSimple" screen and Recorded Movie has changed between Hades 11 -> Hades 12.

    As "EventviewSimple" is now a panel for "Eventview" the "fix" referred to above cannot now work for Live TV!

    !!The picon widget requires a different type for live TV versus recorded movies - see link above!!

    The attached modded skin_user .xml file should make both screens work again, but I am afraid it's too late in the day to test!

    One last word of warning - @Rossi also uses the "EventviewSimple" panel in the "InfoBarEventView" screen, and I am sorry I don't know which screen that is, so there could be an impact there?

    It was too late last night . When I looked at the .XML this evening I see the InfoBarEPG uses the aforementioned screen. I have introduced an EventViewSimpleLiveTV screen for the panel in "EventView" and "InfoBarEventView" screens. As far as I can see all EventView screens work in Hades 12 with this mod maybe @Willmore can confirm?. Over to @Rossi

    The problem you had is typical if when the Skin .xml cannot parse - ViX will crash. The good news is that the E2 box will be still up, and you can FTP to it still and undo the change you made.

    Anyway as @Willmoore said, any skin_user file must be placed in the /etc/enigma2 folder, and the naming convention must be as per the Skin name - the file name should be exactly the name as posted, including upper and lower case.

    With skin_user .xml files you can customise screens of the main skin - the skin_user file gets read last. In this case the code just changes some eventview references.

    More good news is that @Rossi will be incorporating a fix for this issue shortly, so the skin_user will not be needed.

    As @Willmoore also said, any/all skin file changes require a GUI restart.

    Finally, it is never a good idea to change the master skin files in usr/share/enigma2 as the files are overwritten each time you perform an update

    Summary:
    1. Make sure you are using the .xml file from post #7
    2. Make sure you unzip the file and keep the same name exactly when you unzip
    3. The fix is only for Confluence skin
    4. The file must be placed in /etc/enigma2 folder

    Good Luck, and I hope this helps
