mythtv 0.22 channel icons location causes slow tv guide performance

[dm@…]

Sorry about the lack of precise error messages here, I have already fixed this in my install and dont have them now. Mythtv 0.22 frontend is looking for chanel icons in /home/mythtv/.mythtv/channels, whereas shepherd has them in /home/mythtv/.shepherd/icons This causes errors in the frontend when browsing the tv guide, and makes the tv guide extremely slow due to cant find iconname.png errors. To reproduce symptoms remove the channel icons, but leave the icon entries in the channel configuration in mythtv-setup and try to browse the tv guide in the frontend. To fix, create symlink from shepherd icon location to mythtv icon location ln -s /home/mythtv/.shepherd/icons /home/mythtv/.mythtv/channels Cheers David M

Hi David,

I'm not seeing that with branches/release-0-22-fixes [22594]. Where exactly are you seeing slowdowns? (I'm looking in Manage Recordings -> Schedule Recordings -> Program Guide.)

To reproduce symptoms remove the channel icons, but leave the icon entries in the channel configuration in mythtv-setup and try to browse the tv guide in the frontend.

This does indeed generate a bunch of errors ("Failed to save to /home/max/.mythtv/channels/testpic"), but I don't see how that's related... deleting the icon file while leaving the database reference will of course cause Mythfrontend to go fruitlessly looking for a file that doesn't exist, but that's not the same thing as putting the icon in ~/.shepherd/ rather than ~/.mythtv/

Closed due to lack of further information.
