[ea.xlns]

Rename the .xml file to skin_display255_picon.xml and see how you get on.

Has worked. Thanks mate!

Hi guys how ya getting on with your picons? Firstly thanks to rossi2000 for resizing these, they do look very nice. I had problems with the rollers before with the smaller ones that would allow the channel names to partly show from underneath. With the large ones there are some missing, eg BBC3. Or does anyone know how to allocate the pngs to the missing channels using the numbers with the pngs?

Thanks Guys

yeah leept having problems of the channel name showing over past the picon also any fix for it?

[Leept]

The only solution is to install the large VFD picons. Then you can't see the channel name.

[Steadyeaown]

Can we not make the font smaller on the channel description so it doesn't over lap?

hi guys, i have transferred these large picons to my usb, and got them working, but dont want to work for me on sky sports 1,2&3 all the rest work great. look really cool, any ideas why those three channels dont wanna work?
I have a VU Ultimo running VIX 3.600 by the way.

[Larry-G]

it's possible that something like the channel references have changed for those channels since the picons were created. Thats just a guess on my part though as i dont bother with picons on the VFD of my ultimo.

[tomcoleman]

would this work on the vu2 solo?

Also where do i enable the picons on the vu solo 2? vix 3.0

[Rob van der Does]

You don't have to enable picons: if they're in the right location (i.e. /picon) the box will use them.

ok what about these VFD?

[Rob van der Does]

Yep, for VFD-picons you have indeed to make a selection.

and how does 1 do that?

I followed the guide at the begining of this thread but no luck yet getting it working.

[rossi2000]

can anyone tell me if there still using big picons on the ultimo vfd?
any up to date packs i can take a look at?

should have another ultimo very soon.

Just stared looking back into these as noticed more and more were showing as OE-A.

I have Sky1 but it wont display. The work by Rossi and Sandman has been immense. Is there a way of assigning the ones that for some reason wont show? I will have a go (limited knowledge) of finding all the missing ones and making them but need to understand a bit more on how you assign these to display for a certain channel please?

Thanks
