For some reason my guide doesn't display the channel icons, although MythWeb does

 WebFrontend URL = /Guide/GetChannelIcon?ChanId=20113



MythWeb URL = /mythweb/data/tv_icons/s87840_dark_360w_270h.png

web app gets the icons from .mythtv/channels. They are placed there by mythfilldatabase.



There is a hidden storage group called "ChannelIcons" that points to that directory.




mythweb gets them from data/tv_icons in the mythweb directory. I don't know how they get there.



Check these directories and see if you can locate the discrepancy. I suspect that mythfilldatabase was run under a different user id or on a different machine from mythbackend, or something like that.

Thanks Peter,

Found a .mythtv/channels folder that was filled with icons, copied them all to ~/.mythtv/channels for the mythtv user an, lo and behold, the icons now show up in the program guide.


Looks like I normally run mythfilldatabase as root - my bad, I’ll fix that 😀

Regards,
Dave.
