Crash when udating via E-Channelizer

Its interesting that you get the same dmesg errors on both boxes, but really hard to know whats issuing the error.
I guess last question what size picons do you create and with what software?

Mostly the picons from satellites (13, 16, 19 and 28°) The new/additional picons are either from lyngsat.com/ and save as png or jpeg, example 5.55 KB (5,686 bytes, size 132x99)
or a google image search for channel name image (example size 310x163, 2.91 KB 2,900 bytes) and save as png or jpegand use echannelizer to send to box.

Spent some time with Echannelizer this morning - have to admit never used the picons creation on Echannelizer.
So a couple of things........
Although you can specify where to save/create Picons on the PC, I cannot find anywhere to specify where they are on the Receiver, and Echannelizer cannot locate them by default on my receivers - my Picons are on HDD or usb, not /usr/share .

If I replace Picons, I have always stopped the box (using putty telnet) with init 4, then copied the picons to the receiver ... which you can do as you know the store location in Echannelizer, and then init 3 to restart the receiver.........you could also try using Echannelizer to save only the Picons to the receiver while stopped(init 4) and then init 3.

Its probably not the automatic system you would like, using one piece of software, but the safest ......

Thank you very much for your help. I'll try to follow your instuctions, I think i've moved the picons to hdd, I must admit I've never used putty for init 3 etc, use putty to add other things like wget. Hope to give you an updste later?
Again, thanks!
