Cannot talk about Xine here, as I don't use it, but MPlayer has DVB-support and supports remote controls through LIRC. If you need to do time-shift recording this will work: tzap -r "<program>" cat /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 > recording.mpg mplayer recording.mpg For removing interlacing you can use MPlayers post-processor. -vop pp=md seems to give the best quality for me. If you get too many MPEG-artifacts try -vop pp=hb/vb/md. For cropping the image to remove flickering/black bars try -vop crop=688:512,pp=md . If you have too much CPU power you can try things like -vop hqdn3d,pp=md for removing noise. If you have problems with corrupted MPEG-streams (ie dvb-t with bad antenna), try -vfm ffmpeg since that can do error-concealment without crashing. It's all in the docs. BTW make sure you use latest CVS.
