That looks like an issue with the source images from Stirr.. but I'm traveling for the week and I can investigate further when I get back next week.
Can you try using the "custom" link for Stirr and see if the images are available?
I just tried changing it to
https://nocords.xyz/stirr/custom.php?start=10000
The update to the channel numbers is immediately reflected in the guide / line-up, but the images still do not load.
So it seems to behave the same whether I use the custom link or the straight m3u one.
Thank you!

What is curious though is if I download the custom m3u file, I can see the source for the image logos is from nocords.xyz rather than that other URL I posted above. If I manually copy and paste one of the nocords.xyz links into a browser, the logo loads.
Anyhow, in the channels backend, if I go to 'manage line-up' and inspect the broken images using the browser, the source for these is still looking to gateway.sinclairstoryline.com which is what seems to no longer be accessible.
I think it must be looking at epg.xml as this file is the one that references gateway.sinclairstoryline.com.
I'm not sure, just putting my findings out there. Probably not explaining them very well!

Is it just me or is this normal for Stirr? If i go to stirr.com and look at their guide, they show the show title and description as expected.
In the channels guide I don't any titles or descriptions.

You holding the remote correctly?
Kidding.
The settings look correct.
Try redownloading XMLTV from the sources dropdown and check the DVR log for errors.
It's just you.
Did that multiple times. Will check logs, any suggestions to look for?
Any suggestions?

Your settings look funky to me. These are mine, and it works perfectly. I suspect since you are trying to FORCE your channels up to above 20000, the epg can't find them.
Try mine just for the heck of it, Reload after making the changes, and RE download the guide (you might need to wait a few minutes after the full guide download, for it to index). See if you now magically get proper guide. IF YOU DO, then we need to figure out why YOUR custom settings are causing issues with the guide data matching.
If you paste the EPG into your browser on the machine you’re running Channels on, does it open or download?
This probably wouldn’t work, but you could try “Delete and Recreate Database” in the Guide Database section.

In theory, it shouldn’t matter what the channel numbers are. The EPG is associated with the channel ID, not the channel number.

I know that, BUT, it's a good test anyway to see what happens. He might have something else be going on with his setup that's causing it.
Download.

Just check my DVR logs and am seeing this error.
2022/10/26 10:23:33.540168 [ERR] Failed to download XMLTV-Stirr: xmltv fetch: 404 Not Found
I can browse (in chromium) to that url on the DVR machine and it downloads the file and when I open the file it contains valid data.
Using the same setup for pluto and get correct guide data. And I use the customer channel offset.

You entered the epg url incorrectly. There is an extra space at the end
Damn copy and paste.
