The SQL statement shows full path names for the channel icon files.<br>

I believe the proper answer is retrieve the icons again (as user mythtv*.)<br>
However if someone wanted to change a single icon column to the filename,<br>
then the browser command would work for that channel (and for the FE.)<br>
<br>
*If you choose to retrieve icons as yourself, I don't think the MythTV<br>
police will raid you home. And the link solution will work.<br>
<br>
All programs are accessing the icons via the Services API - the same<br>
command as you just used from your browser. The icons are stored<br>
relative to the built-in ChannelIcons storage group (which automatically<br>
uses ~mythtv/.mythtv/channels.)<br>

I got icons to work in the frontend. I removed the symlink I created (/home/mythtv/.mythtv/channels) and recreated the directory /home/mythtv/.mythtv/channels. I then created the directory /home/mythtv/.mythtv/channels/home/<myuser>/.mythtv with a simlink (channels) in it to /home/<myuser>/.mythtv/channels.<br>
<br>
/home/mythtv/.mythtv/channels/home/<myuser>/.mythtv/channels -> /home/<myuser>/.mythtv/channels<br>
<br>
This seems to work.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
