--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction
============
Some time ago Iaki G. Etxebarria, the original author of this
program, bought a TV card for his computer. In his Linux box there
were only a few TV viewing programs, and none of them for Gnome. So
he built a TV viewer following V4L2 spec (at that time not part of
stable kernels), trying to make it as complete as possible. This is
the latest version of that software.
Requirements
============
Zapping requires an analog TV card, with a driver supporting the
- V4L or V4L2 API on Linux, or the
- BKTR API on FreeBSD, or the
- XVideo API.
Software:
- Gnome 2.0, Gtk+ 2.4 libraries.
- optional libzvbi for Teletext, subtitles and closed caption support,
Linux and FreeBSD only.
- optional librte for recording, Linux only.
- optional liblirc for remote controls, Linux only.
Download
========
Zapping, libzvbi and librte are available from
http://zapping.sourceforge.net
Installation
============
From CVS:
./autogen.sh (configure options) && make
From tarball:
./configure (options) && make
Type ./configure --help for a list of options.
As root type:
make install
or
make uninstall
Usage
=====
Please see the Zapping built-in documentation (help menu).
