It looks like Mythfrontend can't fetch programme meta-data images when the 
metadata name has a percentage sign in it.  it seems like the informational 
data is retrieved OK, just not the artwork.

For example, the show named "Ichigo 100%"  (AKA: "Strawberry 100%", "いちご 
100%").

 From the mythfrontend log:

I'd guess it needs to be escaped somehow before being munged through all 
those QStrings in remotefile.cpp.  But I don't know much at all about QStrings.

cheers,
