vfd display recording

[loochy]

Hi all just got the ultimo loving it quick question is it possible to change the recording symbol on vfd to red or to make it flash just so it stands out im using bh image thanks

You can't make it red but you can make it blink!

here is the code in ViX -

<widget source="session.RecordState" render="Pixmap" pixmap="lcd/rec.png" position="180,0"  size="32,12">
			<convert type="ConditionalShowHide">Blink</convert>
		</widget>

Look for the line in your BH xml file referring to the RecordState and your recording png....add the 'Blink' as above and reboot...

remember to backup the original in case it doesn't work...I don't see why it shouldn't though!

Where is the path to that in bh thanks

its - /etc/enigma2/skin_user.xml


The lines you're looking for are -

                <widget source="session.RecordState" render="Pixmap" pixmap="vfd_icons/vfd_icon_rec.png" position="228,0" size="28,12">
			<convert type="ConditionalShowHide" />
		</widget>

change them to -

                <widget source="session.RecordState" render="Pixmap" pixmap="vfd_icons/vfd_icon_rec.png" position="228,0" size="28,12">
			<convert type="ConditionalShowHide">Blink</convert>
		</widget>
