NAME

XdTV (a X11 program based on xawtv) is a software that allows you to watch TV. It interacts with AleVT for Teletext and Nxtvepg for NextView, and uses the video4linux API. It can use some deinterlacing filters and can record video files in various containers (AVI, MPEG, OGG, etc.) with many codecs (FFMpeg(>=0.4.6), XviD(0.9 & 1.x), Ogg Theora (>=1.0alpha5) & Vorbis and DivX4/5). It has also some plugin capabilities.

SYNOPSIS

XdTV [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

XdTV is a simple program for watching TV with your linux box. It uses the Athena widgets. (xaw, xaw3d, xawM, xaw95 or neXtaw) XdTV supports the bttv driver and v4l &v4l2 (video4linux, included in 2.1.x).

XdTV reads the config file $HOME/.xdtv/xdtvrc at startup. This file holds the available TV stations and a few settings like TV norm. On the first start XdTV will create a default minimal config file. You will then have to edit the file yourself to suit your needs, see below for details.

OPTIONS

-b depth
force XdTV into depth bits color depth. Might be needed for 24/32 bits. However the best performances in grabdisplay mode are achieved with a 16 bits color depth.
-f
startup in fullscreen mode.
-n
don't read the config file ($HOME/.xdtv/xdtvrc).
-o filename
set output filename for ppm & jpeg grabbing (default is snap000.ppm or snap000.jpeg)
-v level
Be verbose, level may be 0 (default), 1 or 2. It exists just for debugging. If no level is provided, a level of 1 is assumed.
-x
disable the usage of X11 extensions (DGA, VidMode).
-d
disable the usage of X11 DGA extension.
-D adr
set framebuffer address to adr. Needed for overlay mode if DGA is not available (needs root privileges, use with caution !).
-c video_device
video4linux video device. For devfs enabled systems, default is /dev/v4l/video or /dev/v4l/video0, in that order. For non devfs systems, default is /dev/video or /dev/video/video0 or /dev/video0, in that order. Note that on /proc enabled systems, video device detection is automagic.
-C vbi_device
video4linux vbi device. For devfs enabled systems, default is /dev/v4l/vbi or /dev/v4l/vbi0, in that order. For non devfs systems, default is /dev/vbi or /dev/video/vbi or /dev/vbi0, in that order. Note that on /proc enabled systems, vbi device detection is automagic.
-noxv | -no-xv
disables the Xvideo support if it was compiled in.
-xvport number
set Xvideo Image port (defaults to the first usable if Xvideo is available). A usuable one is one which does support YUY2 format.

-doublekey on/off
enables double keys (default=on if there are more than 10 stations)
-doublekey_firstisone on/off

 Order is important!  Each page number opens a new window
 with the previously given geometry, device, and display.
 
 ppp[.ss] stands for a page number and an optional subpage
 number (ie 123.4).  If the subpage number is omitted the
 first transmitted subpage is shown.
 
 The -child option requires a parent window. So, it
 must be preceeded bya parent or another child window

XdTV is an X application. So you can use all parameters proposed by X11(1):
 -iconic : launch XdTV initially not be visible.
 
 -xrm resourcestring : This option specifies a resource name
 and value to override any defaults.  It is also very useful for
 setting  resources  that don't have explicit command line arguments.
 
 for example:
 xdtv -xrm "xdtv.onscreen*foreground:red (get the OSD red)
 xdtv -xrm 'xdtv.vtx.label.font: -*-*-bold-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1'
 all ressources which are into XdTV.ad could be temporarily modify
 with this method.

GETTING STARTED

Just start up XdTV, this will work without a config file too. Then check out the options (right mouse button) and adjust the settings (TV norm, Video source, freqency table). With the cursor keys you can control the tuner and look for TV Stations.

If you've found one, start up your favorite text editor and stick it into the $HOME/.xdtv/xdtvrc config file. Or you can check out the new channel editor. Hotkey 'E' will start it. Warning: Writing the config file with the channel editor will kill all the comments you might have added to your config file.

Mouse functions

The left mouse button will popup a menu with all TV stations found in the config file. The middle button switches to the next station. The right button brings up a window with alot of options and control functions.

 The branches hold some string (TV station ID), the lines below are the
 settings for that channel. Usually the channel line is enougth.
 
 There are a few other options.  They are allowed both for a station
 (and will be used for that station) and before the first station (will
 be used as default for all stations). The later is useful for common
 settings like the TV norm. See also the example below.
 
 Here is the detailed description of the options:
fine = n
finetuning (what left+right keys do), default: 0
norm = pal | ntsc | secam
which TV norm, default is pal
key = keysym
Hotkey for the channel. All X11 keysyms allowed here. You can prefix a keysym with Modifier+, i.e. ^F is "Ctrl+F".
capture = off | overlay | grabdisplay
capture mode: off, overlay (default, TV card => video, 0% cpu) or grabdisplay (TV card => main memory => X-Server => video, frame rate depends on load and picture size).
source = Television | Composite1 | Composite3 | SVHS
input source
color = n
bright = n
hue = n
contrast = n
Valid range is 0-65535, default is 32768
deinterlace = none | bob | weave | greedy | onefield
deinterlace function applied to the image
subpage = val (different from 888)
Allow save an default subtitle page that will be used at every "show subtitles" use.

 
 The following global options are allowed before the first station only. 
 They may be superseeded by individual channel options:
norm = pal | ntsc | secam
which TV norm, default is SECAM
capture = off | overlay | grabdisplay
capture mode: off, overlay (TV card => video, 0% cpu) or grabdisplay (default TV card => main memory => X-Server => video, frame rate depends on load and picture size).
source = Television | Composite1 | Composite1 | SVHS
input source
colorkey = value
If Xvideo is enabled, assigns value to colorkey.
fullscreen = width x height
specify which video mode should be used for full-screen. Works with X11 only, and of cource you need a valid modeline for this mode in your X11 RC file.
fullscreen_mode = 1 | 2 | 3
Choose the method you want when fullscreen is launched.
windowsize = width x height
specify the startup size of the TV window. Overrides what has been specified in the XdTV.ad resource file.
wm-off-by = [+-]x[+-]y
Some WM's handle static gravity not correct (I know mwm and kwm). This is somewhat boring with fullscreen mode. With this options you can correct this with a displacement for moving windows. For example, wm-off-by = -4-24 does the trick for kwm (the KDE window manager).
subpage = val (default = 888)
Allow save an default subtitle page that will be used at every "show subtitles" use.
freqtab =
select a channel-to-freqency mapping. Options window->Frequency table brings up a menu with all valid entries (and allows table-switching at runtime).
pixsize = width x height
size of the channel pixmaps (within Channels window). 0x0 disables this feature.
mixer_tvchan = device
This allows to control volume using the sound card mixer. device is *not* /dev/mixer (which is set by mixer_dev), but the name of the sound source (line1 for me, just take one of the mixer programs floating around and try which is the tv card...). Volume-control works with the keypad: + is up, - is down, Enter is mute.
mixer_dev = xxx | mixer_pcmchan = xxx | audio_dev = xxx
Advanced mixer/audio parameter, see section OPTIONS for explications
