Xawtv contains various command-line utilities for grabbing images and .avi movies, for tuning in to TV stations, etc. Xawtv also includes a grabber driver for vic. Additional info: xawtv was in Fedora Core until FC2 (now tvtime is a base apps to watch TV). Xawtv seems to be a first project capable to show TV, written by the same people as v4l drive. Besides "xawtv" program itself, "xawtv" package includes a lot of another useful things: command line tools, console radio apps, frame buffer tv, teletext web daemon etc. These "addional tools" are the main reason to package xawtv for Fedora. This package includes ability to write avi files with motion jpeg video, as well as raw "YUV 4:2:0" called "yuv4mpeg". All those seem to have no legal issues (avi support is already in Fedora (dvgrab, xine-lib), mjpeg and yum4mpeg are just a stream of images (jpeg and raw YUV respectively)). Another distros like to split xawtv to several subpackages. I dislike that, because initial Fedora's xawtv was a single package, there is no common agreement how to split (various distos do it differently), splitting itself seem to be unuseful (even some pure cmdline tools require X11 libs etc.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
