I'd like to know the answer to this too having just upgraded from 0.24 
to 0.27.4. Previously on my solo frontends I had to manually update 
icons on the frontends separate from the backend. What's the procedure 
for 0.27.4?

The old way, as I recall, was to run a script on the backend that would 
read the channel listings and pull in the icon files. These icons would 
be used by mythweb on the backend. But then these would have to be 
manually copied to the frontends for use by the GUI.
