    Ideally you dont want to place picons on a HDD as they will force the HDD to spin up every time you so much as change a channel, this can add upto 5 seconds to the zap time. Picons are best on a USB stick or if you have enough flash on the receiver use that.

    You can either download picons from the plugin feeds or manually place the picon folder onto a USB stick.

    If the EPG is on a USB stick then yes but not if it's on a USB hard drive.
