>Yup! You have to do it, it's not always going to match (or even >display a correct option). I just wanted to say Greg have done an amazing job! I always wanted to try fuzzy logic on something, but never had a good candidate. There always was a simpler way. As for lyngsat and dish customers, on lyngsat.com there are pages that list the channels by satellites, like 110,119 and 61. Here's an example http://www.lyngsat.com/packages/dish61.html Please note that the page references all the icons from lyngsat-logo.com. If one just needs small icons, everything could be gathered from those pages. No need to match call signs or anything like this. Channel numbers are there to rescue. Now the fun part, the big logos have the same file name but different location and extension. If one wants the logos instead of icons, all that needs to be done is to replace /icon/ with /logo/ and change the file extension into jpg. I wrote a small java program to verify the idea and it worked for me. I've put it on the web here http://web.tampabay.rr.com/abaiko/mythlyng.zip The program needs Java 1.5 to run. mysql connector is included, just unpack the zip into a folder on your frontend and run it something like this: java -jar mythlyng.jar -v It should locate your mysql.txt file, connect to the server and list your video sources. Once you know which source corresponds to which satellite, run it like this: java -jar mythlyng.jar -d dish110 -s 1 repeat for other sources if desired. Switch -b switches between icons and logos. Logos are on by default. SY Alex _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
