No kidding. I'll take a look at this one. mplayer now supports it. Is this still wanted? (In reply to comment #2) > mplayer now supports it. Is this still wanted? > i would appreciate it. I'm glad to see that mplayer now supports it as well. But TV-Viewer supports scheduled recordings, has a good small GUI and can scan for channels automatically. I haven't found a similar GUI for mplayer's new capabilites so far (well tv-viewer is now based on mplayer) It is very well documented (see http://home.arcor.de/saedelaere/doc/help/TV-Viewer_0.8.x_userguide_en.html#table_of_contents) and still in active devolpment. If you have another good "in-portage" GUI, please let me now. But at the moment I would be very happy to see tv-viewer in portage. Martin Created attachment 222381 [details]
ebuild for media-tv/tv-viewer-0.8.1
Created attachment 222385 [details, diff]
Fixes access violation when an instance of tv-viewer has already been installed.
This patch removes a line within tv-timer installer script which tries to remove the symlink /usr/bin/tv-viewer if it exists and thus evokes an access violation. The symlink will be removed by emerge anyway so the offending line is not needed.
(In reply to comment #4) > Created an attachment (id=222381) [details] > ebuild for media-tv/tv-viewer-0.8.1 > This is my first ebuild so please have a look at it. It uses the installer script of tv-viewer. I could successfully emerge tv-viewer on amd64. But there is a bug: When starting playback there is sound but no picture. Although there is sound and picture if mplayer is called via command line: mplayer /dev/video1 I will send a bug report upstream and test the ebuild on x86.

I had this line in /etc/make.conf LINGUAS="de en" and changed this to LINGUAS="en de" After recompiling mplayer it worked. Created attachment 255445 [details]
