NAME
tvtime-configure - change settings in the tvtime configuration file
SYNOPSIS
tvtime-configure [ OPTION ] ...
DESCRIPTION
tvtime-configure allows a user to set configuration settings for tvtime
without starting the application. This is useful for installation
programs such as debconf to let them configure tvtime without having to
write a parser for the configuration file. The command line options
are a subset of those for tvtime itself.
OPTIONS
-a, --widescreen
This option starts tvtime in 16:9 aspect ratio mode.
-A, --nowidescreen
This option starts tvtime in 4:3 aspect ratio mode.

Sets the height of the output window to start up at in
scanlines. The default output window size is 576 scanlines.
-I, --inputwidth=SAMPLING
V4L input scanline sampling (defaults to 720. This sets how
many pixels per scanline to request from the capture card. A
higher setting gives better quality, while a lower setting means
we do less work, and so tvtime will run faster. If you have a
slower CPU (like, less than 500Mhz or so), maybe values of
480 or 400 might suit you best. For best quality, choose a high
value like 720 or 768. Many capture cards cannot sample higher
than 768 pixels per scanline.
-d, --device=NAME
video4linux device to use (defaults to /dev/video0).
-b, --vbidevice=DEVICE
VBI device to use (defaults to /dev/vbi0).
-i, --input=INPUTNUM

bunch of sources, for example, on my WinTV card, source 0 is my
tuner and source 1 is the composite input.
-c, --channel=CHANNEL
On startup, tvtime will tune to the given channel. Otherwise,
the channels from the config file will be used.

OSD.
