I used mythfilldatabase to get my icons (USA, DataDirect), they are
all .jpgs:

	[rtsai at myth:/home/myth/.mythtv/channels]
	(10:30am) jpeginfo -i -v *
	abc_30.jpg   30 x 30   24bit JFIF  Progressive Huffman,72dpi    1052 
	cbs_30.jpg   30 x 30   24bit JFIF  Progressive Huffman,72dpi    1045 
	fox_30.jpg   30 x 30   24bit JFIF  Progressive Huffman,72dpi     964 
	nbc_30.jpg   30 x 30   24bit JFIF  Progressive Huffman,72dpi     905 
	pbs_30.jpg   30 x 30   24bit JFIF  Progressive Huffman,72dpi    1050 
	upn_30.jpg   30 x 30   24bit JFIF  Normal Huffman     860 

The last number in each row is the filesize.

They all show up fine and legibly in my system (OSD, EPG, etc.).
