Dsayers Picons Updater 1.2 (beta)

SNP Picon updater.jpg

Plugins to download and run scripts to download Ocram's light on transparent picons from my GitHub branch and places them in hdd (100x60 picons) and hdd/SkyQ (220x132 picons)

################################################################################################################################

Please note these plugins download picons to internal flash then moves them to hdd so you need to make sure your storage device is mounted correctly as media/hdd or it will fail to run the script please see the sub forum for your box/image for setting up mounts.

################################################################################################################################

Ftp the ipk to tmp

To install the ipk

Telnet command

opkg install -force-overwrite /tmp/*.ipk

Installing via the box

Openatv

Menu... setup... software management... install local extension memory/tmp Press ok on the package press green to install.

OpenVIX
Menu > setup > VIX > Iplkg install or install local extentions then ipk installer memory/tmp Press ok on the package press green to install.

Reboot box.

######################################################################################################################

Before running the plugin we need to update wget thanks to kiddac for the wget update script.

Unzip the run-me-first.zip and send the run-me-first.sh to:

Openatv usr/script OpenVix usr/scripts

Check the script is executable 755 or 777

To run the script OpenATV Menu > infopanel > plugins > Jobmanager

OpenVIX Menu > setup > vix > script-runner

Highlight Run-me-first.sh then press ok to run

Once ran you can delete the run-me-first.sh if you want

Alternatively run the script in talnet open the run-me-first.sh copy all the text and past in talnet/putty.

############################################################################################################################

Now we can run the plugin goto plugins and press ok to run the plugin this should now download and run the script to delete existing picons and install new picons and move them to hdd and hdd/SkyQ

This should mean that you can have both standard picons (100x60) for most skins and large picons for skins that support XPicons ie SlykQ, SkyQ, Slyk Onyx plus more

You can still use this for standard skins that use 100x60 picons then you can delete the SkyQ folder or leave it on as it wont do any harm being there.

These plugins will download light on transparent picons as its the most natural colour to suite most skins

As this is still early days and beta we may see bugs etc so always make sure you have a full backup of your box see your box/image section for creating a backup
