Configuration:
Channel logo directory can be given via a command line option (-l) and
it defaults to "skinsoppalusikka" subdirectory in VDR's configuration
directory for plugins.
Notes:
- Only XPM format is supported for channel logos: 64x48 pixels and
13 colors (6 colors on DXR3) or less recommended.
- If you'll add new channels logos on the fly, remember to flush the
channel logo cache.
- The channel logos can be named according to channel name (YLETV2.xpm)
or channel id (T-8438-4097-33.xpm). There's a setup option to select
the naming scheme.
- There have been bug reports from some DXR3 users about vanishing
colors and flickering. However, the skin is also reported to work
without any problems on many DXR3 setups.
