Hi, lot's of things have changed since I wrote my last message to this mailing list. TV-Viewer has now about 150 - 200 Users from all over the world :).
I've released a new version 0.7.7b1 which introduces a lot of new features. Bugfixes: * Translation issues. * The scheduler produced an error when the video device is already in use. * Minor things in the code. New features: * Now using frequencies instead channels. This will allow you to use finetuning. * Automatic station search no longer depends on scantv or a working VBI device node. Now all users should be able to use it. * Update-Daemon is now a News-Reader. * Videocard control options (Hue, saturation...) and video standard (Pal, secam, ntsc) will only be changed if necessary. * Splash screen. In fact I've changed hundred of lines of code. Not all changes are visible to the user, but it should be worth to upgrade. Note that TV-Viewer now depends on Tcl/Tk version 8.5 or higher. If this version is not provided by your distribution you may use ActiveTcl from ActiveState. These new features are a preparatory work for version 0.8.x. Normaly BETA versions are only announced on the website and with the News-Reader of TV-Viewer. As this version brings lot's of changes I will announce it the same way as always. See the download section on how to get this version. http://home.arcor.de/saedelaere/download_eng.html It woul be interesting if my little Program works with tv-cards like hvr-1500/1600. So if there's someone out there willing to try analogue tv with tv-viewer, let me know if it works.
