YES it works! it's indeed independent from other playback! The only odd thing is that it's just mono..... but there was already a mentioning of that in the settingsfile I will play a little bit with it and see what will come up. I have a few other question 1) I do capturing with mencoder, i noticed that the corresponding fxd file includes the filename with mpeg extension.. where can i manipulate this setting....? 2) how do I enable timeshifting? I saw this was possible but i can't find how to enable it. or use it is it a plugin that has to be activated 3) Another odd thing is a little bit off topic and perhaps related to tvtime, when i run tvtime, the picture is when a fast motion is on TV with stripes and fading, it looks like my hardware configuration is to slow for looking tv directly, but i'am using a P4 with 1.8 ghz this should be sufficient, of is one of my settings wrong? BTW, my processor utalization is 20%, so it's not cpu related i guess, the used graphics is Nvida geoforce 4, xv driver on Fedora core 2 with 8k stacks.
