stationlist.xml - tvtime station configuration file SYNOPSIS
~/.tvtime/stationlist.xml DESCRIPTION
The stationlist.xml file contains the configuration of channel information for capture cards with tuners. It contains a list of active channels along with their frequencies, renumbering information, and channel name. The stationlist.xml file is updated by tvtime at runtime to store settings across sessions. For this reason, you should not edit this file while tvtime is running, as your changes may be over- written. This file is created or updated whenever channel information is changed in tvtime. This is done when renumbering a channel, using the channel scanner, or manually activating or deactivating a specific channel from the list. Channel settings are saved specific to norm and frequency table. <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE stationlist PUBLIC "-//tvtime//DTD stationlist 1.0//EN" "http://tvtime.sourceforge.net/DTD/stationlist.dtd"> <stationlist xmlns="http://tvtime.sourceforge.net/DTD/"> <list norm="NTSC" frequencies="US-Cable"> <station ... /> ... station list </list> </stationlist> That is, each norm/frequency combination will get its own section in the configuration file. The frequencies name is not special, you can have frequencies="foobar" and running tvtime -f foobar will do the right thing. The norm, however, must match the norm being used. Entries in a list are in the following form: <station name="CNN" active="1" position="18" band="US Cable" channel="18"/> <station name="DSF" active="1" position="12" band="VHF E2-E12" channel="E12"/> STATIONS
Each station has its own properties that should be set. name The human-readable name of the current station. active When set to 1, the channel is active. To deactivate the channel, set this value to 0. position This setting specifies the position the channel occupies on the dial. This allows users to arbitrarily map any particular channel to a particular position on the dial. band channel The possible bands and channels available in tvtime are: Band name Channels provided US Cable 1-99 US Cable 100 100-125 US Two-Way T7, T8, T9, T10, T11, T12 T13, T14 US Broadcast 2-83 China Broadcast 1-68, A1-A7, B1-B31, C1-C5 Japan Broadcast 1-62 Japan Cable 13-63 VHF E2-E12 E1-E12 VHF S1-S41 S1-S41 VHF Misc X, Y, Z, Z+1, Z+2 VHF France K01-K10, KB-KQ, H01-H19 VHF Russia R1-R12, SR1-SR19 VHF Australia AS1-AS12, AS5A, AS9A VHF Italy A-H, H1, H2 VHF Ireland I1-I9 VHF South Africa 1-13 UHF U21-U69 UHF Australia AU28-AU69 Australia Optus 01-058 Custom channels can be included manually by specifying the frequency in megahertz: <station name="2" active="1" position="0" band="Custom" channel="55.69MHz"/> norm A per-channel norm can be specified in the stationlist. This is for stations which receive both PAL and SECAM stations, such that they can choose the colour encoding format per-channel. The only valid values here are either PAL or SECAM. network Sets the name of the network for the OSD display. In NTSC regions, this is set from the XDS information in the VBI if VBI decoding is enabled. call Sets the call letters of the network for the OSD display. In NTSC regions, this is set from the XDS information in the VBI if VBI decoding is enabled. xmltvid Sets the XMLTV channel identifier to associate this channel with if tvtime cannot automatically make the association. For following channel definition in an XMLTV file: <channel id="I10119.labs.zap2it.com"> <display-name>CICA</display-name> <display-name>TV Ontario (CICA)</display-name> <display-name>Canadian Independent</display-name> </channel> An associated stationlist entry would be: <station name="2" active="1" position="0" band="Custom" channel="55.69MHz" xmltvid="I10119.labs.zap2it.com"/> AUTHORS
