Help with oled picons on dm800se v2

[ste141]

Could someone please help with displaying picons in the oled. I was told I needed a skin_user.xml file so i've added this to usr/share/enigma2/ but the picons still don't display.

skin_user.xml:

<skin>
<screen name="InfoBarSummary" position="0,0" size="96,64" id="2">
<widget source="session.CurrentService" render="Picon" position="0,0" size="100,60" path="/usr/share/enigma2/picon/" >
<convert type="ServiceName">Reference</convert>
</widget>
</screen>
</skin>

I've just got one set of picons that I use for the skin I'm not sure if you need separate ones for oled?

Thanks

Ok thanks i've followed that guide and now the screen is just blank any ideas why? Thanks

You sure you followed it mate, created a 2nd folder with them in for oled? And are you on pli image?

[ste141]

Yeah got one folder called "picon" for the skin and one for oled called "picon_oled" both on the root. Uploaded the skin_user.xml to etc\enigma2 and the oled picons are 100 x 60. Thats right isn't it?

here's my skin_user file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<skin>
<screen name="InfoBarSummary" position="0,0" size="96,64">
<widget source="session.CurrentService" render="Picon" position="0,0" size="100,60" zPosition="0">
<convert type="ServiceName">Reference</convert>
</widget>
</screen>
</skin>

[ste141]

btw, i cant understand why picons aint working for you, if it displays a blank screen that tells me the user file is working but it aint finding your picons , your picons are in a picon folder labelled "picon" on root of usb stick right ?

[ste141]

No my picons for the oled are in a folder on the root of the box called "picons_oled" do they have to be on a usb stick or are they OK on the box?

[southpaw]

yes mate, they absolutely do need to be on an external media, usb or hdd, surprised your box hasnt been crashing if you have dropped a big picon folder in the file structure ,
if you would have followed the instructions i linked to earlier up thread, you would have known that tho

[ste141]

Ok Thank you i've changed it all now got my two picons folder on the root of usb and the olded picon are defiently 100x60 as stated on the skin user file.
here is my skin_user:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<skin>
<screen name="InfoBarSummary" position="0,0" size="96,64">
<widget source="session.CurrentService" render="Picon" position="0,0" size="100,60" zPosition="0" path="picon_oled">
<convert type="ServiceName">Reference</convert>
</widget>
</screen>
</skin>


Still getting nothing displayed though just black screen! Any ideas why?


Thanks

[ste141]

Does the screen support black backgroud picons becuase that is what my oled picon have?

[southpaw]

is your usb stick mounted ?
is your folder containing your picons labelled "picon_oled" and on the root of the mounted usb drive
did you reboot after changing anything
