Some clients have issues processing the images for 9 Network channels

I use Channels DVR on my Apple TVs in unison with your M3Us

I've noticed that because the tvg-logos specifically for Nine channels have longer, more complex URLs than the other channels in the lineup, they fail to load on Channels DVR clients (excl. Web Browser admin panel, and some Android TV devices)

Example 1:

https://imageresizer.static9.net.au/lx1XIWcrYZRtnfJOqvxNn9CshDI=/768x0/https%3A%2F%2Fvms-tv-images-prod.s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com%2F2024%2F09%2F630608%2F9nine-1.png

I use the docker compose you made to get around the token issue with 9Now (cheers for that by the way), and to get around this, I simply copy pasted the contents of the playlist it generated into Channels, and manually pointed the problematic channels to a GitHub repository I made with their respective icons.

Example 2:

So far this seems to have fixed the issue, I assume because the URL is much simpler, or maybe 9 is checking the user agent of people accessing their CDN, and whatever Channels is using to grab it, it doesn't like.

Isn't much of an issue anymore, but thought I'd report it in case people are having similar issues.

Might be worth fixing this on the main playlist 👍

Thanks for all your great work Matt!
