As roy already mentioned the names of analog channels are grabbed from the teletext. Unfortunately not all broadcasters are following the standard and use the desired data packet for something different. There is also no error detection etc. in this data packet. This is why sometime the TV-Server detects a wrong name.
If the desired data packet in the teletext stream isn't found the TV-Server will use the channel number as name.
