Hello,

I have encountered a reproducible bug in recent versions of ProgDVB Standard.
Problem: The first character of every channel name is missing.
Examples:
• BBC News appears as BC News.
• 123 Sport appears as 23 Sport.
• And if the channel has country prefix, the first character is also missing:
UK| SKY SPORTS NEWS appears as K| SKY SPORTS NEWS
US| Fox Sports 1 ᴴᴰ appears as US| Fox Sports 1 ᴴᴰ
US| DISCOVERY HD appears as S| DISCOVERY HD

The problem also affects channel names displayed in the on-screen display and is present in Channel Properties.

Testing performed:
• ProgDVB 7.73.x x64 and x86: problem occurs.
• Xtream Codes IPTV: problem occurs.
• M3U IPTV: problem occurs.
• Fresh channel database: problem persists.
• Different Windows computers: problem persists.
• Different Windows scaling: problem persists.
• Different skins: problem persists.
• ProgDVB 7.72.5 x32 and x64: works correctly.
• ProgTV also inherits the missing first character problem.

Missing first character problem starts from version 7.72.6
This strongly suggests a regression introduced after version 7.72.5.
Could anyone please investigate and advise whether this is a known issue?

Thanks.
