Anyone got any info on using picons in the LCD?

As the title guys, just trying to find out how the picons are used in the LCD. Not you need special picons?

I know with the dm800, there were special lcd picons, and there was a menu in the setup somewhere to enable/disable lcd picons... They looked quite terrible too

I woudl guess though, that it's a similar option on this box?

You just resize the picon set you want using picon manager to 300,192 then stick them into the picon lcd in usr/share/enigma 2 simples

Does it show them in colour of the front LCD screen? Any chance of posting a photo please?

Ive added a pic of picon and a pic of the box ontop of my duo so you can see the size of the box a bit better.

Thanks Mick, thats looks pretty smart

For some strange reson the picon is actualy very difficult to photo well and actualy looks much better than my pic.

Is there a progress bar at the bottom of the picon, by the time?

does this work with the vu duo?

So what you think of it now you've been using it a while Mick?

As a one tuner box its very good much better than any of the clones and the TM800 i borrowed last week to test not had a solo so cant comment on them. Picture quality is better than the duo. I would love to get a second tuner to give a full review of the box but can`t justify spending £39 when I already have a Duo in the othere room. Maybe our sponsor could do a special discount for us.
