Based on the remote filenames of the icons, conflicts can arise, causing a mess:
These cases generates the same icon filename 'icon320_light.png?v2023_48_0'.
The proposed solution no longer uses the original filename; it now generates a user-friendly name from the source identifier of channel (xmltvid), followed by the hash of the full remote URL and, optionally, the file extension. This way, the generated name can no longer conflict with that of another channel, and it is easily identifiable with the xmltv identifier, as it is user-configured.
Now downloaded icon names from xmltv source look like the following.
