Linux Video Studio TV README
================================================================
Introduction
---------------
Linux Video Studio TV ('stv') is a simple TV-app for linux, based
on Gtk+. It works, that's all. It has no fancy special features,
like video capturing, image grabbing, bladiebla. Nothing of this
all. It just shows TV. Because that's all it needs to do.
If you want to capture video or grab images, look at Gerd Knorr's
wonderful and fully-featured XawTV (http://www.bytesex.org/xawtv/)
or try Linux Video Studio, a simple video editor based on the MJPEG-
tools (and on which this TV-app is based).
How it works
--------------
First, read INSTALL for installation instructions.
Start it (doh!). It will probably autodetect the video4linux port. If not,
you will be notified in the terminal and you will have to start it and
provide the port number manually (see "stv -t"). Do "stv -p <portnum>" and
have fun. If you don't see any port, be sure that you have read the
installation instructions, especially these about making a change to the
X-configuration.
Right-click for a control-window (choose channel and change picture
properties). Press the "settings" button to get to the Channel Editor and
the Remote Control configuration window.
In the channel editor, you can (doh!) make a selection of channels. In the
remote control editor, you can specify which buttons should take which
action.
Now, use the remote control, keyboard or mouse to control the app.
Remote control buttons
-------------------------
You can specify your own button configuration since each remote control
has different signals. A "general configuration" would be impossible to
create.
Keyboard keys
----------------
arrow down - next channel
arrow up - previous channel
arrows left/right - Volume control
q - quit
a - toggle audio
0-9 - choose a channel by number
enter/escape - toggle fullscreen
Mouse control
----------------
Wheel down - next channel
Wheel up - previous channel
Middle button - toggle fullscreen
Left mouse button - control window

Thanks to Gerd Knorr <kraxel@bytesex.org> for the help on the brightness,
saturation etc. sliders.
Thanks to Edwin Versteegen <ir-ontvanger@gmx.net> for providing me with a
LIRC-infrared module to test and develop LIRC support in this app. See
http://home.wanadoo.nl/novh/ for more info.
Disclaimer
-------------
If it doesn't work, if it formats your hard disk, if it does something
it shouldn't do, if you see a bird flying by, don't blame me. This is test
software in alpa/development state, it can do anything or nothing at all.
I'd be happy if you reported bugs to me, though :-) (see contacting).
