Running text on VFD display of Duo2 (workaround for ViX)

Do mate, because the feeds are fine for me for duo, ultimos and duo2.

just tried it and still no joy and other ideas??

My only other suggestion is to try this from a telnet session:

init 4 && opkg update && opkg upgrade && init 6

Copy and paste that, hit enter.return and have a look at the telnet window - it should tell you if there is a problem updating anything.

Have you unstabe updates enabled?
Menu -> Setup -> System -> Software Update -> Allow unstable updates = yes?

[iceman214]

yes unstable updates enabled

Reboot the box & wait a few minutes before you try again so.
If it still doesn't work, I'd be looking at network/virus issues.

Hi,

Just discovered this thread. It's great that you can now scroll text! This is just what I'm looking for. I use the full size picons on the colour LCD and want program information on the VFD.

I'll have a look at 'ubisIst_normal' and see if I can remove channel name (as that is on the picon), and look to add the tuner icons. Once complete, I'll share my results in this thread.

Thanks to the original poster.

Cheers, Lee

Any joy with removing channel name from skin?

Any joy with removing channel name from skin?

Try this...

skin_display.zip

Unzip, and FTP the file skin_display.xml over to /usr/share/enigma2/display/ubisIst_normal. Make sure you take a backup of the original first. Restart enigma, and you should now get the current program name only.
