Picons on HDD Vix 2.2

[swagner]

My EPG is located in media/hdd
What is the correct folder location for the picons?
Is it media/hdd/picon
Any other setting needed to make picons show on the program guide and info bar??

Which image you using?
For vix it does not matter as long as they are in a folder called picon. It is recommended to put them on USB otherwise HDD will spin up everytime you change channels.
Also for the VIX guide / CoolEPG to show there you need to press menu when in it and than enable picture in graphics and no of items to 5

As stanman has said you can store the picons in media/HDD/picon and they will work fine, but the HDD will spin every single time you change a channel as it needs to seek the picon to display it.

Personally i'd say have a look in the bargain section and pickup a cheap USB stick. it's far better to just have a stick plugged into the back of the receiver with things like picons on. plus you can use it for epg and settings backups too.

Thnks,
If picons are on the USB is it also necessary for the epg path to be set to be on the USB?

[Stanman]

No its not though I have my EPG on USB again to minimize the no of times the HDD is woken up.
