I was just trying to find a better 'version' of a channel myself earlier actually (UK based).
something like ivtv-tune -t europe-west -c 65 for example, at my location would tune to channel 65 out of the europe-west allocation, which happens to be Channel 4 in the UK . A little tip (again apols if you already know this) is to use 'mplayer -x 512 -y 384 /dev/video0' (or some other suitable values for x & y) so you get a smaller window and you can keep the console in view easier. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
