    How to install new Sky skin. Help wanted badly

    Hi all,

    This is a long shot but hopefully you can help me. I have a technomate twin oe, enigma2 openpli image... i wanted to change the skin to look like Sky I didn't know it was possible until I came across a thread here (new Sky skin)
    Is there any way you could try helping me or sending me in the right direction as to how to get it up and going. When I read the thread I just got so confused with all the files and updates there are. Also where do all those files go exactly.
    Really hope you can help me

    Regards and appreciate any help,
    Spud

    Why do you keep saying 'sly' when you actually mean 'Sky'? It's not a swearword.

    Most UK based forums censor the word sky to try and hide their illegal activities with regard to card sharing support from Google searches.

    Agreed and I have said as much to many a user over the years.

    Yea that's why I was saying sly.
    Anyways guys, if you had a technomate twin oe, enigma 2, openpli and you wanted a skin to resemble that of SKY what would you do. Is it easy to change to a vix image in order to get the above mentioned. Thanks in advance

    Compared to implementing all the add ons for OpenPLi (certainly for my system's), flashing Vix and having an "operational system" that works well is just a few minutes work, as is keeping it updated with a "couch" flash..
    Gigablue Quad 4K & UE 4K
    .........FBC Tuners:
    ------------------> DUR-Line DCR 5-1-8-L4 Multiswitch to 1.5M dish(28.2E)
    ------------------> Spaun SUS 5581/33 NFA Multiswitch to 80 cm dish(19.2E)
    .......................> FBC & DVB-S2X into 90cm dish (27.5W) Opticum robust Unicable LNB
    AX HD61, Edision Osmio 4K+, Zgemma H9Combo, Octagon SF8008 , gbtrio4k, h9se using Legacy ports on multiswitches
    Zgemma H9 C/S into Giga4K

    True. PLi is just a bare system, that needs a lot of plugins and configuration. ViX is almost ready to use out of the box.
