mk picons not working

[delboy21]

hi everyone.
having trouble with mk picons and cant seem to get them to work on my boxes.

i have a vu solo and zero,both boxes do not show the picons.

i have downloaded via openvix unzipped and put on usb stick.
when i insert usb into my box it just comes up with

"no displayable files"

i have tried and tried to get these working as they look really good.

any suggestions as to what i am doing wrong?

regards
delboy.

i am using vix image and sky skin by fraggle.

you need to save just the picon file on the usb hope that sorts it for you

[delboy21]

hi

i have just got the picon file only on usb
but still no joy.

i am baffled:confused:

[Willmoore]

Make sure the picons are placed in the root of the usb in a folder called "picon" - make sure the file is called picon lower case

[delboy21]

hi

yes it is picon lower case.

when i check usb on laptop they are all there looking lovely.
however the boxes cant seem to read them.

as i say the on screen message says "no displayable files".

[dfox]

Can you not use DCC to transfer the folder.

[Willmoore]

The file path should /media/usb/picon

[delboy21]

hi

yes i tried that as well

used dcc to send to media/usb/picon

still no joy.so reverted back to the plug in usb instead.
hopefully will get to the bottom of this.

thanks for all your help people.
much appreciated.

Do you have the Hades symbol showing in the info bar etc ?

[delboy21]

hi
no i do not have vix hades installed
just have normal vix installed.

will this be the problem?
thought they show on any vix image.

[Willmoore]

What version do you have Apollo ?

[delboy21]

yes i think so.

at work at moment so not too sure.

yes just checked,def apollo

[Willmoore]

menu>information>about will tell you version and build number.
It makes no difference as it's the same procedure. With Apollo it will say no picon loaded in the picon place holder. Have you enabled picons to show within settings ?

[delboy21]

i have downloaded picons via plugins and saved to usb.
this works perfectly
but when i use same usb after wiping all data and putting on
mk picons nothing shows.

so everything is switched on and enabled.just wont read new picons.
any idea why it would say "no displayable files" when i know there on there.

[Willmoore]

I'm pretty sure MK picons are not available via plugins (will be on next build I think) You get them from the download centre in a zip file.

[delboy21]

yes i know.

i meant i have downloaded picons via plugins,ocram ones and they work fine.

mk ones downloaded from openvix and put on usb do not work.

i am thinking it must be the format of these files.
however other members say they work ok.

[Willmoore]

Sorry, misunderstood. After deleting the Ocram picons did you format the usb to Fat32 ?

[delboy21]

yes reformatted to fat 32.

as i say all picons are on usb,
they are just not recognised by the boxes.

[Willmoore]

I'm at a loss mate - I have installed these on several boxes without any problems. You could try a different usb as this has solved other problems - 4GB seems to be favoured. Someone more knowledgeable then me will be along to help no doubt.

[delboy21]

thanks for your help
much appreciated

will try a 4gb usb and see if i get lucky..

[Bazzer]

I would m8 I had a solo and had a lot of trouble with the Usb I eventually got one working and that was 4GB Kingston .

Are you using Lraizer's plugins with the print number feature?

[delboy21]

Hi Abu
No I am not.

Have you uninstalled the picons you had installed earlier?
Which of MK's picon set did you use?
Do the picons show if you use another skin? If not, upload your debug log.

You're plugging in the USB stick after E2 has started. You need to have it plugged in before E2 starts if using picons on it.

[delboy21]

Hello everyone.
Quick update,used a different usb all working fine now.

Thanks for all your ideas

Delboy.
