Skindesigner uses the channel name CONVERTED TO LOWER CASE LETTERS to search for an

appropriate channel logo. With this, approximately 90% of the channel logos should work

immediately after placing the channel logos in the correct place. So if you have to change

the name of a channel logo (may be by inserting a space or a hyphen) so that it fits to

the channel name, only use lower case letters, and not the name of the channel with upper

and lower letters as displayed inside VDR.

If no logo is found for the channel name, additionally a search for a logo named as the
|

ChannelID is performed. Analog to the channel name the ChannelID is also converted to lower

case letters. This allows channel logos for channels with changing names (for instance

Sky Feed Channels).

Additional hint: some channels have slashes in their name (in germany nick/comedy for instance).
