Channel Logos Ideal Size

If supplying your own custom TV network logos in your m3u file, What is the ideal size to create them? What size are they displayed?

I believe 640 x 480 is the preferred size

To clarify, I'm referring to the tiny ones that appear to the left of your TV listings grid.

It's a 4:3 aspect ratio. The number of pixels is less relevant. So, 400 x 300 would be fine. See this for more details:

I recommend .png files so that they they can be clear in the background, too. Here's an example of mine with a custom vs. Gracenote TVE vs. provided by Pluto.
