Sky Q Skin Picons for large images on info bar installation problem

Hi all,

I've recently done a fresh basebuild install of Wooshman which includes the Sky Q skin. I've managed to get it looking and working the way I want it with one exception. The info bar type banner that appears when a channel is selected is only displaying the standard Sky Q type image although the smaller channel specific picon is showing on the right hand side of the bar. I've managed to find a plugin within the Wooshbuild plugin section that's called something like 'SkyQ large Picons' and have tried time after time to try and install it but it won't work. The screen changes to the installation progress screen but nothing happens and the box stops responding forcing me to do a hard reboot to get the box working again.

I've seen mention of using FTP services to install elements of skins but I've only ever used USB and Wooshbuild so have no idea how to do this type of thing. Is there anyone that can help me get this sorted. It's a minor thing but a constant annoyance now I'm aware of it.

Many thanks for all of your efforts in putting these packages etc together. Great work.

Cheers
 
Not yet mate. Need to give the ftp method a go to see if that works to import some onto the hdd but not had chance yet.
 
No I'm afraid not. Never did get round to researching the ftp method (I've always used whoosh build so have never needed it before). Am currently just living with it but continuing to find it annoying. Will likely change skin soon as I just can't be bothered to mess about with it just to sort out that minor problem.
 
I managed to get freeview large picons on the info bar where the big Q using filezilla there are some on iptv but not many none on sky sports or movies any update on picons for sports etc
 
Sadly I tried all of the above I can get the small sly sports picons to the right of infobar but nothing in the big Q
 
I had this problem awhile back when using the sky Q skin and onyx skin.

I did what dsayers2014 said above and the picons then became large.

On the skyQ skin you need to download SRP picons and put the picon folder into media/hdd/skyQ

There will be no skyQ folder there so you will need to create one!

Does this put them into iptv sky sports etc
 
Didnt like the slyQ skin so i changed to slyk HD

I now use slyk hd skin with no picons!

For IPTV you would need to match the service reference to the picon in order for it to show in info bar which would take ages!
 
No didn't get it working can get all freeview channels working and a few others but nothing in sports or movies
Does this put them into iptv sky sports etc

I couldn’t get the large picons to show on channel selection even tho I’d downloaded them from wooshbuild. I got them to show eventually by doing this:-

Whilst viewing a channel, press OK for info bar then press down arrow to bring up channel list. Press menu then settings then yes to ‘show picons on zap’. This worked for me although I don’t have IPTV in my epg so can’t comment on that
