There is no Vix 6.5..

I would not put the picons on an hdd.. The reason is that your hdd will have to spin up each time you change channel.. therfore.. meaning that it will take 3-5 seconds for your channel to change..

Just download who ever picons you want to use.. Rename the folder "picon" .. if its not already called that..

Then just ftp to the root dir of your 800UE..

Reboot the box.. now picons will show..

Or if you want to put them to usb pen.. just ftp the "picons" folder with the picons in it.. to media > usb and again reboot the box..

Thanks for that info, I wondered why my channel change was slow to respond, now I know the reason why
