You can find a very good guide about adding logos to your channels in the wiki:

TVChannelLogos - MediaPortal Wiki Documentation

I'm feeling a bit stupid at the moment, because I tried that and it doesn't work for me. I'm using the latest release (1.0.0 RC2). Firstly there was no Thumbs\TV\Logos directory in either \Mediaportal or \TVServer directories. So I created on in \MediaPortal. Tried a range of CAPS options on the naming of this directory. Also looked for the \cache directory but don't see one...... I tried logos with PNG extensions and without......The example image I was trying is square and has a very simple name 'ABC1' which matches the 'Name' in MediaPortal Setup -> Television -> TV Channels.

Has something changed for Mediaportal with TV server?
Is the Cache in a different place?
Should I be doing this in the TV Server instead?

:confused:

    Hi Callumgw,

    your issue come down to the fact that you created the dir in the wrong location.
    Also take care that those are alredy in place and so as a general rule, if you don't find a dir look somewhere else but not create it.

    Look here for correct paths: SystemFolders - MediaPortal Wiki Documentation

    You need to check the wiki for TVMosaic, you have recordings as source available once TVM is installed. And of course images and music are part of the NET6 version as for NET4. If you have issues with it further infos would be good.
