[mythtv-users] mythtv icons in Mate and mythweb not showing up

Regarding the mythweb tv icons...

I do have the symlink in /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/data that points
to /var/cache/mythweb/image_cache and in that directory there are a number
of .png files corresponding to the icons that still appear as broken image
links in mythweb.

When right click on one of those broken images and select "open image in
new tab", I get a new tab with a blank square in the upper right hand
corner, but the URL appears to be correct (e.g.
http://localhost/mythweb/data/tv_icons/kshb41_kansas.png )

Ah hah... when I attempt to open that file in an image viewer, I get "fatal
error reading .png file: Not a png file".

Looking at the contents of the file, it's just some xml that adds up to
nothing, as in:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><></>

I *thought* those files were generated when I was in the channel editor in
mythtv-setup, and clicked on the 'channel icon' button. I only found a few
- like for the major networks, but not for their sub-channels.

Like I said, it's not that big of a deal, but there's a failure somewhere...

Thanks for any advice...

George
