MythTV Channel Icons
I hate adding channel icons, in MythTV is one of my pet peeves. Since the last time I rescanned it has improved a little and the uk_rt XMLTV grabber now offers up lyngsat logos for the channels Radio Times cover.
Knowing of the impending doom, this time I tried to avoid it. I’ve now created a PHP script which will look through a data file, download the channel icons to the required path, and spit out a SQL script. At the moment it is very simple in that it doesn’t connect to MythTV and check what channels you have, it just blanket downloads all that it knows about.
I’ll get round to posting it in the next few days.
Oh nice! I’ve been using the old way of doing this and was looking for a better solution today. Posting this would be much appreciated.

Good tool, but it only covers Lyngsat TV Packages, like Sky Digital. In my case (using Virgin) its not that useful, but the right way to go.
