Post subject:  Channel Icons

Can someone please help me out with grabbing channel icons?

I have followed the tut in the wiki as well as a few posts from here but I have had zero luck. What is the easiest way to do it? some help would really be appreciated here. thanks

It appears that channel icon grabbing is no longer working in R5F27. They must have changed the web page that the mkiconmap.pl scrapes. I have tried the latest mkiconmap.pl from the SVN 20-fixes, but this does not help.

I just finished doing this very thing. I ssh'd into my Myth Box and changed to the /myth/image_cache directory.

1. Logged on to http://www.satlogo.com/
2. Found the icons I needed and right clicked on them and copied the location.
3. In the SSH window I type wget <paste the location I copied> and hit enter. This should download the icon.
4. Repeat until you have all the icons you need.
5. Log in to Webmin
6. Open Servers
7. Open Mysql
8. Open mythconverg
9. Open Channel table
10. Click on the "View Data" button
11. Select the channel you want to edit and click "Edit Selected"
12. Type in the full path to the icon you downloaded in step 3 (ie /myth/image_cache/Filename.jpg) in the "icon" field.
13. Click save when done
14. Repeat until complete.

Check out my post 4 messages down. That is the method I used for R5D1 and R5F27
