Any idea why I am only getting a few channel logos?

I added the logo pack linked elsewhere on this forum, clicked download icons and they are working now. I though it would get all the logos from the freesat signal though?

I have the Channel 5 logo in my media\channel folder, but there is no icon tag in the channel.list xml file for Channel 5.  How do I manually map it?

Your channel is named "5 HD" on the satellite and the match is by name. If you want you can edit the name or add an image.

I seem to be missing a channel that I should have (True Crime). If I do a rescan will it overwrite the changes to the channel list that I have saved, can these saved channels be exported or saved to a file in case everything gets lost?

Before doing any maintenance I am unsure of I copy npvr.db3 just in case.

Then I would create a single tuning file like I showed above but use 1=11344,V,27500,23,S2,8PSK and rescan and add (hopefully) the missing True Crime.

Thanks Martin
That's picked up quite a few more channels, some duplicates, but quite a few that I did not get before
I see this time its guide is DVB rather than Freesat. Would you mind explaining what is different in this ini file to use a different EPG?

I had to change the EPG from DVB to Freesat for the new channels as I got no listings in the guide with them se to DVB.
