Channel images

I apologize if this is answered already, I did try to search and couldn't find the answer.

I don't have any traditional TV or IPTV service, and I was looking at adding some news content options to my emby server, I found this list of public iptv:

https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv

While I have used Emby for 9 years, this is the first time I have looked at the livetv functionally, so I am not very familiar with it.

I downloaded the english .m3u file (https://iptv-org.github.io/iptv/languages/eng.m3uand using VLC removed all the channels I didn't want leaving mostly news channels, however they are just showing up as generic icons when I browse Live TV using Emby.  I can't find anywhere to edit the metadata or images for the icons? 

With other media I would just click on the 3 dots and click on edit images, however the 3 dot menu is missing on these.

Can you let me know how I can upload images for these channel icons?

 

Strangely I also noticed that for all my channels there is just 1 with an image, however its wrong, so I don't know where its getting this image from:

This is for the Adventure Sports TV channel, when I click on it, it plays correctly and is Adventure Sports, definitely not MLB Extra Innings?

If there is no 3 dot menu for the channels, I assume its not saved in the Emby database, so where is it getting the images from?  Do I need to edit a text config file or something?

As these are public channels from around the world I don't have any guide configured, as it seems to want me to choose a physical location, and then select a TV provider which I don't have, so I don't really care about a guide, just want to make this look nice with the correct channel logos

Hi, isn't the three dot menu right there in your first screenshot?

If you examine the contents of the m3u, you will probably find this image in there.
