The callsign is stored in the database and could just as easily be searched against. you don;t have to search against the "name". > > I think it should do a match against the callsign field first and if no > > matches are found then use the name. > > the responses are actually based on the name of the icon... if you > look at the results, and then go to the website and right click on the I'm aware of this, but it would be more accurate to search on the callsign and if none found then try the name. For instance "The Learning Channel" has a callsign of TLC which would easily match the logo name of tlc.jpg. I've gone through and matched up hundreds of these now in serveral states and I'd say that for Northamerica at least matching against the zap2it provided callsign (or DVB grabbed) is a better way to find matches. Matching this way would save on a lot of extra manual fuzzy matches.
