Add channel metadata

Add channel metadata

Adding company information to metadata is an easy way to identify and copy protect your broadcast or
recording.

Older versions of the Pearl firmware also added no signal images, backgrounds and logos through
the branding feature. Background images and logos are now available through a generic
procedure that doesn't limit you to just one background or logo. See Add an image (custom
channel)
. Custom no signal images are temporarily unavailable.
