    Which mk picon download

    I'm using the vixbmc 1080 confluence skin and want to use the mk picons
    On looking at them on the download section I see 5 available.
    Which one of the 5 do I download?

    I'm going to using external HD to store them...
    Do I just place in HDD/picon folder or do I need to do it a different way

    Thanks

    Just place them in the root of the drive in a folder called 'picon' Then tell vix where they are.

    Do not place picons on HDD. With picons on HDD, HDD needs to spin up every time you need to access a picon.

    Place them in /media/usb/picon.

    Yes.

    Or you could put them in the flash (/picon). But MK takes a lot of space (220MB) so that depends if your STB has sufficient space.

    There's no need to be disrespectful, I was only trying to help you out with an answer.
