How To Put Picons And EPG On USB ?

[BRAVEHEART]

have you a telnet client on your PC?
If not Putty is a good one.

I have dream edit, dream control centre and flashFXP installed, I am not familiar with putty very much, would any of those do the job ?

(p.s, will putty work on windows 7 64bit ?, if so, there is a lot of downloads available on that link, is it just putty.exe I need, yes ?)

Hi
Sorry to jump in, But is there a way to resize the picons? When I downloaded my picons, they only fill half the allocated box on cross epg?
Thanks
Tom

whats the advantage of storing your picons and EGP on your USB rather than HDD

I currently have all mine on my hard drive just wanted know if their an advantage if I should put them on USB

You should really start a new thread rather than digging up a two year-old version... that said, picons ideally should be stored on your box flash memory if you have sufficient space. Failing that, a USB stick could be used. The problem with picons on a HDD is that it has to spin up the disk in order to find picons when you change channel. This can cause a momentary pause.

EPG data can be stored on a HDD as it is loaded into RAM and only written back to the disk on shutdown or loaded back from the disk on initial startup.
