Really quickly, anyone might know why my channel logos show up on my tv and computer at home, but when I log in to plex on a remote computer, the channels show up but the logos don't? I figured I'd ask both here and at the plex forums. BTW, using .png images for logos.

Plex doesn't proxy the channel logos, so the remote computer tries to load it using the address that was used to add the DVR to Plex. Meaning your local network address

So, does this mean it just takes a little longer to load them? Would it help if I had them all in their own folder?
junior needle
No, it means they will never work remotely

Gotcha. Not a big deal, since that's not my primary usage, I was just trying to show someone how awesome ErsatzTV is and they asked how I knew which channel was which.

yeah, unfortunately plex needs internet-accessible images. i could probably add a feature to use a specific url for the images, but it would involve extra steps of finding somewhere to host it publicly if it's a custom image
