NAME¶
tvtime-scanner - an all-band scanner for tvtime to help users of European
cable providers that do not use standard frequencies
SYNOPSIS¶
tvtime-scanner [ OPTION ] ...
DESCRIPTION¶
tvtime-scanner allows a user to scan all frequencies for stations. This
is useful for European cable provides such as UPC or Casema
which do not use standard frequency tables for their channels.
tvtime-scanner checks for frequencies across the full band and writes
it to your stationlist.xml file in a table called "Custom". This can
be selected by running "tvtime --frequencies=custom" or by selecting
the Custom frequency table within the OSD menu inside tvtime.
