I have picons working on most screens but when I press the info button I get the below screen but sadly missing picons, I have checked the extras file and set the InfoBar to show picons, problem is I not sure that screen is the InfoBar lol as always any help would be much appreciated.

That screen is called eventview, and it doesnt contain picons, which is why u cant see any. The infobar is the one when u press ok once, and it shows u the current programme, next and later.
 
Kiddac I've been talking to someone else about wget and he managed to work around it he said.

The enigma2.sh start-up script sets LD_PRELOAD to point at a library that ensures that the close-on-exec bit gets set for all opened file-descriptors (this is so that all sub-processes start without all of the files opened by enigma2).

For some reason this affects wget.
The simple solution is to unset it at the start of the script.

This is the part of the script he gave me

#!/bin/sh
#

# enigma2.sh will set this, but wget fails when it is set.
# So unset it now....
#
unset LD_PRELOAD

This is my full script that will work without updating wget

Code:

Im not sure how ABM_urlbase works

How do the service icons work in movies.xml? As ive tried using chabs and slyks code but using session.currentService only shows the icons for the mini tv. And ive also tried changing it to "Service" with MovieInfo, but this doesnt work either.
 
If you are on about the planner, they don't work properly anyway. The only change once you start a recording and then press filelist again. So a bit pointless. Hence why they are not in my skin. I only put things in that work properly

Edit i see the above problems are for the mod. In his dropbox folder you also have to copy over his mybackgrounds and skyicons folder
 

Youll need to look at the extras.xml file and change it i think. As looks like youve got some other mods happening there with the progress bar changed to yellow. Plus the 3rd programme info on the infobar doesnt look like its got a start time on it. Are you fully updated to v5.106? If so id change the extras.xml to say infobartemplate1 instead of 2, and then youll need to change secondinfobar from 3 or 4 to 1 or 2 depending if u want ecm values or not.

We know its possible in other screens other than the 'show animation whilst busy' because a different spinner of the same design appears when starting/restarting/stopping the softcam - As for the toppicks shell script, I too had numerous headaches on this; when danmed released the final no matter what i did it would not work on my duo2 ; i had a lot of help from danmed but no matter what i couldn't get it to work; I then had some great help from birdman (on another forum) and now it works after much frustration; if you like I can pm you the details as I don't think I can post a link to another forum on this one (against the rules as far as I know)


Kiddac did you see my post yesterday (#617) quote above, just wondering if a possibility; thanks

@Chabs i've seen you've said today you'll try convert the mod for us on your version of the top picks screen; when you get round to it could you also convert your mod for the planner screen (post 578) - no rush on this though - thanks

don't want to sound like a p***taker but asked above originally 18th, then again on 19th, still had no reply; don't want to pm you kiddac as you've said you don't answer them; if it's not a possibility it's absolutely no worries; hope you don't take this the wrong way; i know you're busy and we've all got lives away from all this, apologies if you didn't see i posted before. thanks
 
There is no way to get a spinner to work in the pvr or timeshift screen without changing the screens python components. E2 has limitation with animation and graphics...

okay no probs; was just wondering about it as i saw there was an additional spinner on the softcam manager screen; that's fine though, all i needed to know ; thanks
 
Well if you follow what I write, I did say a few days ago my keyboard malfunctioned and blew up. I had to wait until monday until I could nick a new one from work. :)
I actually thought I posted a reply. It mustn't have posted.
As Chabs says there is no easy way without writing a massive amount of python code that does very little.
Here is the python component for the start cam.

Right I have spent the last couple of days perfecting my toppicks script as much as I can. I am now happy with it. Unfortunately I now don't want to remove any of the screens for a small menu ;)

I just now need to write in the menus. I also need to test something dsayer said about not needing to update wget. I will have to reflash my box to test that though.

Here are some random screenshot of it in action.
