Picons to /usr/share/enigma2/picon or on a USB stick to media/usb/picon.

Did you create the folder picon?
Did you create the folder picon?
Hi, can you tell me how you got the picons working? I backed up my whole picon folder from BH 1.7.9 and after re-flashing to V2.01 I then ftp'd this folder (picon) to /usr/share/enigma2/ so I didnt have to create the folder as I had it already backed up - then I ch mod the folder to 755 and the only channels that are working are my DTT channels. My satellite channels will not show the picons??? very strange!!

Are you sure you copied all picons.
Specifically solo flash is small for picon.
if you overfill the flash image will have poor performance.
USE USB stick for picon
My apologies, I am using Vu+ Uno, but I am getting same problem as above with Vu+ Solo users - Anyway I tried using USB and installed 28.2E USB picons from server but I still cant see the picons for my Sat channels???

Yes did all that - Formatted the USB via blue panel using ext2, then mapped it to media/usb then dowloaded from BH server picons 28.2e USB. Then checked the picons were in media/usb/picon and made sure the folder picon is ch mod to 755. Then turned off/on STB and still cannot see the picons on my Sat channels but I do see my DTT picons on my DTT channels???? What have I done wrong???

I would copy the picons manual on the USB stick. So you can get sure, that there are on the stick.
Perhaps the picons have been copied to usr/share/enigma/picon?!
Perhaps the picons have been copied to usr/share/enigma/picon?!
I have also copied them manually on to the stick with yes to overwrite - I also have them in usr/share/enigma2/picon - that's when I got my DTT picons working only.

Delete the folder picon in usr/share/enigma2!
Only a folder picon on your USB stick which is mounted to media/usb.

Done that - still doesnt work - Puzzled?????

Which skin and which picon you exactly use ?
The only thing to do is mount USB stick
Download picon from the server.
And nothing more.
It simply must work if you use our skins.
WHICH skin you use.
I am using default skin and I started off using my picon folder which I was using and working on BH 1.7.9 - The first thing I did when I re-flashed with BH 2.01 was to restore this picon folder to usr/share/enigma2 and my DTT picons worked straight away but my Sat channels did not. I have deleted all picon folders and downloaded from server but still not working - I'm giving up at stage and going back to BH 1.7.9 or another image.
dtt=terrestrial?
for sat picons you need to mount your usb stick first if you kept them there

Just download it to /usb/picon because every universe uses the same usb stick and so the same picons.
