Hello,

With the help of the v4l mailing list I can now get mplayer to record my 
television programs with sound on my Winfast Expert video card.

There is a problem however; the following is my channel list as for use 
with tvtime:

TV_CHANNELS = [
        ( "euronews", "Euronews", "S37"),
        ( "bbc1", "BBC1", "S13" ),
        ( "tf1", "TF1", "E6"),
        ( "france2", "France 2", "U24"),
        ( "france3", "France 3", "S5"),
        ( "arte", "Arte", "S16" ),
        ( "tv5", "TV5", "S17"),
        ( "la%20une", "La Une", "E7"),
        ( "la%20deux", "La Deux", "S15"),
        ( "kanaal2", "KanaalTwee", "S6"),
        ( "vt4", "VT4", "S12"),
        ( "tv1", "Een", "E5" ),
        ( "vtm", "VTM", "S11"),
        ( "ketnet", "ketnet", "E11"),
        ( "mtv", "MTV", "U26", ('1234567','1800','0559')),
        ( "mtv", "nickelodeon", "U26", ('1234567','0600','1759')) ] 

However some of these channel names don't exist in freq.py (such as S13, 
U26) and mplayer/mencoder seems to use the same data as freq.py so I 
can't record some channels. The corresponding channel list using freq.py is:

TV_CHANNELS = [
    ( "euronews", "Euronews", "S37"),
    ( "bbc1", "BBC1", "SE13" ),
    ( "tf1", "TF1", "E6"),
    ( "france2", "France 2", "24"),
    ( "france3", "France 3", "SE5"),
    ( "arte", "Arte", "SE16" ),
    ( "tv5", "TV5", "SE17"),
    ( "la%20une", "La Une", "E7"),
    ( "la%20deux", "La Deux", "SE15"),
    ( "kanaal2", "KanaalTwee", "SE6"),
    ( "vt4", "VT4", "SE12"),
    ( "tv1", "Een", "E5" ),
    ( "vtm", "VTM", "SE11"),
    ( "ketnet", "ketnet", "E11"),
    ( "canvas", "canvas", "E11"),
    ( "mtv", "MTV", "26", ('1234567','1800','0559')),
    ( "nickelodeon", "nickelodeon", "26", ('1234567','0600','1759')) ]

Which works with mplayer.

However, the mplayer channel list doesn't work with the tvtime list so I 
can choose either to watch tv or record it but not both using freevo!

Is there a way I can specify two channel frequencies for a channel that 
are passed to viewing and recording apps?

Otherwise I will modify my recording script to change the tvtime channel 
names before passing them onto mplayer, which is a bodge.

ps. freevo still shows both sets of channels that are time dependent. Is 
there anyway to hide a channel when it isn't broadcasting?
