Recorded TV series icons/logo

wishywashy · 2005-07-24, 20:46

I was wondering about the possibility of implementing recorded TV series icons. Along the lines of: record Futurama "everytime this channel" and instead of the TV network logo showing, assign a Futurama icon.
I realize these would have to be manually placed in the thumbs directory. Could they be a generic name such as Futurama.jpg?
I know what I am trying to say but it isn't reaching my keyboard. If there are any questions don't hesitate to ask.

I had some there but screwed the nameing scheme. I looked into again and fixed it. Thanks for putting up with my ignorance.

I'm sure i'm missing something here - the icons have to have the same name as the show. However, every recording I make is date stamped in the title so I end up with 'eastenders_22072005' or similar. How can this work as every show title is different? :?

The naming is based on the EPGdata, not the recorded files :wink:
