As the title guys, just trying to find out how the picons are used in the LCD. Not you need special picons?

I know with the dm800, there were special lcd picons, and there was a menu in the setup somewhere to enable/disable lcd picons... They looked quite terrible too :p

I woudl guess though, that it's a similar option on this box?

You just resize the picon set you want using picon manager to 300,192 then stick them into the picon lcd in usr/share/enigma 2 simples

Does it show them in colour of the front LCD screen? Any chance of posting a photo please? :)

Ive added a pic of picon and a pic of the box ontop of my duo so you can see the size of the box a bit better.

For some strange reson the picon is actualy very difficult to photo well and actualy looks much better than my pic.

Is there a progress bar at the bottom of the picon, by the time?

As a one tuner box its very good much better than any of the clones and the TM800 i borrowed last week to test not had a solo so cant comment on them. Picture quality is better than the duo. I would love to get a second tuner to give a full review of the box but can`t justify spending £39 when I already have a Duo in the othere room. Maybe our sponsor could do a special discount for us.
