Picons not working

[ALISAT]

I have download the following Picons for 42e and 28.2e to my HDD and done an install. I can see them on my hdd in the following folder: /media/hdd/picon. How can I active all the icons for these two location to work on my box

Have you restarted Enigma 2 -- if not -reboot and should be okay.

You do not have to activate the location. The image has a list of locations to check and will use the location it finds. It will only use one location.

Please explain how you have "done an install". Provide as much detail as possible. Normally when you install a picon ipk, it installs to the lcoation set in the ipk. It is not usually /media/hdd

Do you have more than one picon folder on your system? Your debug log will show what location has been selected.
Are the picons correct, i.e they match the service references of the channels?

What I mean by install. Is that I added them from the plug in and after selected the medium as the hdd it install them to my harddrive. . I only have one picon folder on the hdd. After a number of restarts I still cannot see the picons. I have done the channels selection setting as well.

. I only have one picon folder on the hdd.
I asked about your system, not just your HDD.

Upload your debug log. Add as attachment, do not paste it.

[abu baniaz]

Debug logging is enabled as follows:
Menu -> Setup -> System -> Logs -> Enable debug logs = yes.

You must restart receiver to activate this. You will find the logs in /home/root/logs/

There will be an entry like this

can you upload your picons to this thread please? you will need to zip them first.

please do the same with lamedb file. it is located in /etc/enigma2

Hi,
if there is also a directory /share/enigma2/picons which on wins? I am quite sure that /hdd is quite at the end of allowed directories.

ciao

[ALISAT]

There is no directory called picons under /share/enigma2/. I will now zip and upload the other files.

I'll try and look at them for when I get home.

You have done everything correctly. The picon pack needs editing. There are 231 picons for 42e in that upload, only 10 have valid service references. The maintainer will be better off moving to SNPicons.

They are only 70x53, so not sure you want to spend any time on them.

[ALISAT]

what do you mean by SNPicons

[abu baniaz]

Service Named picons are where the picons use the channel names instead of service refernces. Thi smeans you dont have to worry aout service refrence changes

Here is the thread

Do those picons come in a larger size?

[ALISAT]

I have no idea

Hi, I have a VU+ Solo SE on openvix, I am running the Blue HD SKin. I've tried to install picons from the box itself as the video shows on openvix it looks so simple. Go to Plugins select picons and select the transparent black and white one. However when I go to select the picon it doesnt give me that option only a load more files with the same name but just a different number at the end. I've tried a couple of the and cant get them to work. I've got an external hard drive (which is connected to the box and used as the man hard drive) and a flash pen too which I dont use and only used once to reflash. Do I need to set the picons up via downlaoding to the flash pen and then installing it or can i do it by the box at all? or alternatively using Fliezilla? Do i need to put an empty folder on my hard drive called picons before installing from the box?

Sorry for all the questions. I'm just trying to find the easiest way and I am new to this.

Uninstall picons, unplug all usb, install picons from feeds, this will make sure they are installing to internal flash, now plug usb back in, you may need to reboot to get it to mount again.

Did you activated the visibility in "system"
