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.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help

              bunch  of sources, for example, on my WinTV card, source 0 is my
              tuner and source 1 is the composite input.  The scanner requires
              using an input that has a tuner.

       -n, --norm=NORM
              The  mode  to  set the tuner to (defaults to NTSC).  Valid modes
