Are you asking about ones for the front panel or OSD? You can use two different sets.

For the regular ones that you see on TV (which will also work on the front panel), there are several options.
Use Ocram's picons (use the full version)
There is a set on the the plugin server, but it will always be old. You can get latest set from


https://github.com/picons/picons/releases

Use E2Piconizer to make your own from Sky's website
Or use any other picon pack. I don't think there are many just for 28.2


If you want some bling on the front panel, try MK's ones. There will be a few missing as he's not updated them for a while.

Yes, it's crashed ever since the move to 5.4.x, it's the reason I keep one of my multiboot images on 5.3.x and store the picons on HDD.

Has this ever been mentioned before? I can't find anything.

Not that I'm aware of, I assumed it was up to the author of the plugin to update it to be compatible, I contacted the author about one of his skins some time ago and found him not very helpful so I'm certainly not going to bother contacting him about this while I have a work around.

Latest version of E2piconizer is V1.14

Recent crash fix on the forum is to use telnet and opkg install python-multiprocessing

That indeed fixed the crash, the version on ViX feed is v1.12 so needs updating.

Would of thought 'python-multiprocessing' should be a dependency when installing the plugin.

Much appreciated @ccs

The Vix Release feeds are from 11th November. The 3rd party plugin was updated on GIT. The one on the Vix Release plugin servers will be updated when the Release build finishes and feeds are transferred to Feeds server.

Any solution to this same problem with e2piconizer with py3 ?

I think E2piconizer was fixed for py3 try the link in post 9
maxben

That was the first thing I tried


Couldn't find anything to satisfy 'python-multiprocessing'.
Unknown package 'python-multiprocessing'.

Working here e2piconizer V1.16 on ViX 5.5.014.013 (Py3)

Edit I didn't need to install python-multiprocessing just installed the ipk

Is this giving you the error?


you are just missing the depenancies.

telnet/putty into your box

type

opkg install python-multiprocessing

and the latest ipk is on post 1 of this thread. There is no need for anyone other than image builders to use the github versions.

EDIT: you need python3-multiprocessing

He has a script in the ipk to check py version and install the depenancies so I don't think that is needed anymore

What do you get when trying
opkg install python3-multiprocessing

HD51, just updated to 5.5.015.002 py3 and e2 piconizer is crashing again.

This time it happens when pressing green button to start picon download.

python3-multiprocessing is installed.

What version of e2 piconizer are you using, there is a reference to v1.16 in post #15.
maxben

It is version 1.16 installed.

Was working fine until I updated this morning
