Yes.  Looking at the channel record with the channel editor it shows the
icon file name as:

    /usr/share/mythtv/icons/tv/itv1.gif

Similarly, looking at the entry directly with mysql shows the same.
However each time an attempt is made to access the icon by my front end
the access fails and mythbackend logs:

2005-07-27 17:52:17.374 Could not open /mirror/video/itv1.gif

It's possible of course that it's the log message which is wrong, but
the icon file is definitely where the database entry says it is.  Anyone
know why mythbackend is looking in the wrong place?
