If you are no longer using any of chab's skins you don't really need his script to run as well. So that can be deleted it if no longer required.
Mine are correct, scrapes sky at 6am, then should change the images every 30 mins.

Hi Kidda,
I really like Toppicks feature but as I am not a sky subscriber I would like it to show more relevant pics from the free to air channels (BBC, ITV, C4 etc.).
Is there a way to modify the download address to scrape from a different site? Or are the Top Picks pictures not coming directly from Channel websites?
The code is based on the json data provided on the sky website.
It isn't compatible with any other data from any other website. sorry.
I think freeview have some sort of json data, as Chabs must scrape it for his freesat skin.
I will have a nosey, but don't get your hopes up.
yeah freeview only has 16:9 images for programs. Which is not really good for my toppicks code as most of them images are portrait images.
Sky provides data for both landscape and portrait images.
what skin are you using
How would I get his script off pal I see which one you mean
Still won't change at the top picks tho I've restarted gui powered off box restarted network still not working pal
Right you might have a build where the cron folders are not initially synced up.
Go into
Menu > Info Panel > Plugins > Cron Manager
Click Add
Time to execute 06:00
Command Type > Predefined
Command to Run cccamscraper.sh
Save
Then see how you get on with that.
and in that crons panel I assume its set to autostart. I can't remember when I was looking at it.
OK I'll give it a go pal and yer it's set to autostart
Command to run only has skyscraper. Sh
Skypicker.sh or update.sh or vm2picks.sh
And update_xtream.sh
No cccamsacraper.sh
apologies.. getting confused myself, I was testing my cccam scraper when I wrote this post.
skyscraper.sh
OK pal no worries do I need to restart gui after or anything
I deleted chabs script added exactly as you put in previous post still hasn't made any changes little confused as like you said it's setup right
yeah freeview only has 16:9 images for programs. Which is not really good for my toppicks code as most of them images are portrait images.

Thanks for taking a look Kidda - no worries
I decided to start using this Slyk Q skin yesterday, and got it installed and am very happy with it! Good work! I though I would go about getting some picons installed, so installed the piconizer plugin and downloaded picons to my drive, "/media/hdd/picon". They show up in the "Channel Select (TV Button)" screen, but not for the "Graphical EPG (EPG Button)" or "Infobar (OK Button)" and "SecondInfobar (OK Button Twice)".
Is there a specific size I should be downloading the picons at in piconizer? I assumed that downloading to the location mentioned, and the fact that they get picked up on one screen seems to suggest the location is ok, or do I still have to manually copy them somewhere else?
Many Thanks
I teamviewered into someone elses box last week, there picons were not appearing in the EPG either. I checked all his settings and they were correct. I think openatv have broken something in one of their latest builds. I have a build that is a few months old and my picons are fine in the EPG.
Are you using openatv?
Yup, openatv 6.2. screen shot of my versions.
If I downgrade to 6.3 from 6.4 open atv backing up everything will this save mgcamd etc and settings for skins and top picks etc

Never trust a backup.
There are options to choose what folders the backup will backup, but personally you are safer, copying your line details as you will probably lose them.
I always recommend never restoring any settings or plugins when updating/downgrading an image.
Just do them all again, your box will play much nicer with fresh settings. Once you have done it a few times it only takes a short time to reset everything up.
See my waffle thread about install a fresh openatv image.
