Topic: C8 clock overlay and LCARS

I accidentally also posted this in the flash/widget  section
Hi to all the Chumy diehards, especially Duane-thanks.
I have a C3.5 as a bedside clock and it fine. I also have a C8 which was OK on ZURK but I have now reverted to normal. I have not been able to find how to put the text clock overlay on the C8. I want to just run the Mystreams screen with a clock on it as a kitchen radio.
Also, can anyone tell me how to stop the Mystreams screen timing out and reverting to LCARS?

thanks all.
PS. I would still be happy to contribute to a subscription service to get more functionality. Any News?

Re: C8 clock overlay and LCARS

First, the clock overlay only works on the 3.5" devices, as Duane says here: http://forum.chumby.com/viewtopic.php?id=5377 . Second, the menus and channels themselves are in a different UI layer, so you couldn't have a clock overlay and a menu like My Streams in the same place anyway. I'm sorry about this, but you'll have to go to My Streams when you want to change the radio station.

Hi Nathanm, thanks for the quick reply, pity.
My ideal is to have Youstreams displaying all the time but I dont think that ever worked on the C8 anyway.
cheers
