Display goes blank when typing in channel numbers

[keith1200rs]

Currently running V5.4.006 on Vu+ DUO 4k open VIX. When pressing a channel number, instead of it showing on the TV screen, it shows nothing and the built in display on the Vu+ goes blank. It happened on the previous version as well. In earlier versions, it showed the number(s) of the buttons you had pressed on the TV screen. Is this a known problem or could it be one of my settings that has caused this behaviour?

Thanks.

Ultimo4K, 5.4.006

If I press 3, I see Channel 3, ITV on the screen and ITV with 3 underneath on the lcd.

If I press 3 followed by 3 I see Channel 33, Sony Movies on the screen, but ITV 3 stays on the lcd until the channel is tuned in.

Or maybe something you've changed here.... Menu/Setup/User Interface/Channel Selection

Thanks for the reply.

My LCD is set to not duplicate the TV channel - it just gives some status e.g. channel name. When I pressed a channel number button in the past the TV would show that number over the channel I was watching while waiting for the next button press. For example, if I pressed 4 and nothing else, after a few seconds it would go to channel 4. While waiting it would show that you had pressed that number on the TV screen. Now it shows nothing. It still changes channel after a few seconds, but no display of what buttons you have pressed. DUring these few seconds the LCD is black.

I have had a look at the Menu/Setup/User Interface/Channel Selection but cannot find anything that would cause this. I have tried a few options but cannot get the old behaviour back.

Which skin are you using for the OSD?
Which skin are you using for the Front Panel Display?

[keith1200rs]

Sorry for the delay in replying - I don't seem to be getting notifications of replies to the thread.

I am not sure about the skins - under system/information it says MAGIC-FHD(1920x1080). Under LCD skins it say <Default+PICON>. If this is not what you were after, if you point me at the menu to find out the settings, I will report back. Thanks.

OK, I can confirm the problem on the front panel display. We will need to fix it. The OSD screen is showing it for me.

My GUI skin is Vix night HD
Front Panel Display skin is default

If I add the following, the number shows. I can't seem to get it to show the target channel name, I could only get the current channel name

Thanks. I don't know how to change skins. I looked in the settings and don't seem to be able to find any choices. Could you point me where I might find them in the menu system?

Thanks.

Keith - you need to download new skins.

Menu > Plugins > Green button > Skins

Once downloaded you can change in Menu > Setup > User Interface > Skin Setup > Skin

This may well do it. I've got this on my ET8500


<screen name="NumberZap_summary" position="0,0" size="720,576">
<widget source="parent.servicename" render="Label" position="10,50" size="700,110" foregroundColor="yellow" font="FdLcD;85" halign="center" valign="center" zPosition="2" />
<widget source="parent.number" render="Label" position="10,190" size="700,250" foregroundColor="white" font="FdLcD;90" halign="center" valign="center" zPosition="2" />
</screen>

Better, but not quite right. If I enter 12, it still shows BBC one on Front panel, but OSD correctly shows 12 Quest

I get that on my Ultimo4k.

That's what it does here. I've never managed to understand why.

Thanks for that. I have now been able to try a few skins and Pli-HD-night shows channel number and name on the TV as I key the number in (but nothing on the LCD, which is fine - I don't mind that). I am not sure why it went wrong - I have never changed skins before.

Oh thank you! I was convinced it was a bug in one of the renderers.
