[GiGaBlue UHD UE 4K] Front panel OSD

[abu baniaz]

Pretty sure it's following, (joe_90 and original birdman, feel free to correct)

Open terminal client on your Linux PC then type "Telnet 192.168.1.51"

Adjust IP address to match yours.

The picons are showing on the front LCD for me. The screen is not that big, so it is just the picon with no other information.

One issue I did find is that most of picon packs on the plugin server won't fit on internal flash memory. They are too big. Best to use a flash drive or SSD hard drive. They must be in in ext file system otherwise they will not be offered as a usable location.

nothing found

I'll connect my GB UE 4K and check if I have any issues. I don't understand what you mean by "Front Panel to OSD". Please re-phrase


Can you please issue these commands and post back the results. Please do one at a time. Better to copy and paste instead of typing.

df -Th

find / -type d -name picon

opkg list-installed | grep picon

A pictorial guide on how to use Putty for Telnet commands


You can download Putty from

https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/latest.html

You can right click, then paste the command to avoid errors!

Some commands:

Show storage devices, filesystem and type

df -Th

Put enigma to sleep (required before deleting files normally re-written at restart such as epg.dat)

init 4

Stop Enigma2 and then restart in console mode with debug

init 4 && ENIGMA_DEBUG_LVL=4 /usr/bin/enigma2

Stop Enigma2 and then restart...

You said picons are showing on the TV screen so maybe that command is not thorough enough to check the other devices. The information page will show which picons file it's using, but not to worry.

Please put the receiver into deep standby. Once receiver is off, disconnect both USB sticks/devices (120 GB and 4GB) and boot up, this will ensure only one storage device is mounted. Install a utf8snp picon pack from plugin server. Make sure you select the HDD as location. Then restart.
