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
	      Show usage information.

       -F, --configfile=FILE
	      Additional config file to load settings from.

       -d, --device=NAME
	      video4linux device to use (defaults to /dev/video0).

       -i, --input=INPUTNUM
	      video4linux input number (defaults to 0).  Cards commonly have a 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 are:

	      o   NTSC
	      o   PAL
	      o   SECAM
	      o   PAL-NC
	      o   PAL-M
	      o   PAL-N
	      o   NTSC-JP
