Right how jedi currently works on update.

It loads bouquets.tv and deletes all entries related to that iptv.

It then rebuilds the list (in case there any new ones) and appends this new list to bottom of the bouquets.tv

This is why it resets.

In order to what you are asking. Its a bit more complicated.
I would have to not delete all entries for this iptv.
For every update entry I would have to check it exists.

If not append it to the bottom. Because if you have reshuffled the original list around, there is no known place of where to add it.

If I do the above, then the lists all become out of order very easily.

Can you show me a screenshots of what you mean.

Before update and after update.

also in /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/JediMakerXtream/update.py

i call this function

which is doing a standard bouquet load.

If your stream is locked and stable, I wouldn't worry about it.

If its not stable, then your dish probably needs a tweak or your f-connectors on your coax cables might need re-ending.

and this plugin is now on v13. So maybe bugs have been fixed.

Raed QuickSignal Plugin

I think you are reading them values incorrectly.

SNR = Signal to Noise Ratio - which means signal quality
AGC = Automatic Gain Control - which means signal strength

In the skin you can show these values as a percentage or as a decimal.

This skin is showing them as a percentage.

The higher the percentage the better

SNR needs to be over 60% to be stable
AGC the higher the better if a percentage

If your stream is solid and not breaking up, I wouldn't worry about it.

Cool. Good man. Enjoy.

Any further jedi questions can you please post them in the original JediMakerXtream thread. thanks.

Asking a skinner to change something because it clashes with one persons setup is a bit much.
Delve into the code yourself, find that element and tweak the positioning for your personal preference.

skin files live here

/usr/share/enigma2/...

find the folder. Add edit the skin.xml file.

try this one

The post above yours is a link to the user guide.
Please read it if you are struggling to use it.

I was just experimenting to see how small i could get this graphic heavy skin. I just gave you a benchmark to go off.

Its up to you to decide on the compromise of size or quality.

This has not been tested.

I removed thumbs.db (again) :derpthink:

Converted some of your non transparent backgrounds to jpgs and changed the refs in the skin.xml file

Ran all your pngs through pnggauntlet software - further reducing them.

Some of these pngs might have converted to index pngs, which will need to be checked if you are using alphatest="blend". Rgb pngs are better for transparent edges and gradients.

Removed a font file that didn't seem to be used.

You still got msn icons/weather icons in this - twice - are they still required - or are they different than default icons - you could save nearly another 1mb removing them.

So we have saved ... drumroll.. 6.6mb

Now we down to 8.5mb in total size :thumbup:

Getting there.

This file isn't an official release. Just for testing.

Because I am bored and got a little spare time this evening I am going to repackage this all up for you.

Lets see how small we can get it.
I will only be working on the files though and not actually be doing any box testing.
I am in the middle of something at the moment, so don't want to be installing other stuff at this moment.

Ok here is your largest menu image. Shoutcast.

Shoutcast.png compressed 472kb

shoutcast.jpg even at a reasonable high 80% quality. 129.3kb (using photoshops save for web option - yes I am fortunate I have photoshop - you might not)

I think you will find that is a considerable difference.

Even 0.5mb difference in a skin can make a difference. Don't presume users of your skin have high end boxes with lots of free memory.
You have to squeeze and squeeze every little last drop of saving you can.

I first started out on an old zgemma s2. Dog slow box. That taught me how to make skins small otherwise it curled over and died. :)

sandman_1983 it is probably best if you update the files on first post when you do updates.
People naturally download the file they see in post 1. It stops confusion then and people don't have to go hunting for the latest releases amongst the posts.

Hi All

Does someone know the setting to stop the active channel number flashing on the clock display?

I have openatv 6.4

Kiddac skyNEW 1.003

Zgemma h2s

When the channel number flashes the screen freezes and when the clock is displayed again the stream starts.

You have probably posted this in the wrong section as its not really jedi related.
Jedi plays streams via enigma2 channelselect code. The same way it plays a satellite stream. So I have no control over how a stream is played in this plugin. Or what happens when you do. It creates the bouquet folders only.

SkyNEW is not my skin - its chab's skin. I don't fix other people's skins. But you can see if its a skin issue by switching to default skin on your box.
(he probably doesn't realise he has just swore at me :) )

My skins live here. Are still maintained and problem free (ish)
Enigma2 KiddaC

And my equivalent old sky skin is here.
*UPDATED* Slyk 1080 R19 (Install - FAQs)

Do a full reboot, not just gui reboot.

you can turn them off, google it. disable windows 10 thumbs.db
I tend to just go to list view in file explorer. search for thumbs.db in root of your skin and then delete them all. Then create ipk

You gotta be cruel to be kind.
You have left 4.10 mb of thumbs.db in there again.

And due to the photographic nature of your menu backgrounds, I highly suggest you jpg the majority of them. You will save at least another 5mb doing that.
