[VU+ Ultimo] Flashing REC in the display (VFD) window

[delboy1]

Is it now possible to turn the REC on front of ultimo to solid (non flashing) when recording?

delboy, I modified mine as covered by this thread post #14:
http://www.world-of-satellite.com/showthread.php?18610-Magic-HD-Skin-change/page2
Once modified save the file in etc/enigma2 to prevent it being overwritten when updating.

Hope this helps

thank you Daytona.
just to check this will stop the flashing REC in display window on front of ultimo.
The banner rec is ok as is.

^correct, i've got mine so rec/update does not flash

 

[delboy1]

thank you Daytona and s31teg.
I can not find file (skin_display_no_picon.xml) .

thank you very much s31teg,
will let you know.

 

[delboy1]

thank you very much .
it seems to have done the job. :thumbsup:

does this file need reinstalling after an update?

 

[delboy1]

s31teg,
do you know which line to put clock (on front when turned to standby) back to 24 hour?
After installing file it has gone to showing in 12 hour mode.
once again thank you.:thumbsup:

 

[s31teg]

im not actually at home but this is the line you need, copy the original from skin_display_no_picon.xml

line #234

		<convert type="ClockToText">Format:%l:%M %a %d</convert>

also this is permanent, update safe

thanks, done .:thumbsup:
now after that I have no solid rec on front.
strange.
thank you s31teg for all your help. :thumbsup:
