Ptune-ui

From IVTV

Jump to: navigation, search

This utility needs to be updated so it works with the new api. Until that time it will not work!!

ptune-ui.pl is a simple perl-based graphical program allowing you to tune to different channels with your ivtv card. It is found under utils/perl/ in the driver source tarball. If you have previously used ptune.pl to tune via the command line, you should now use ivtv-tune

Requirements

Perl, as well as a number of perl modules are required to run ptune-ui:

Many, if not all of these should be available as a package in most distributions. If they aren't, you can install manually by downloading, untar-ing, entering the source directory and doing the following:

perl Makefile.pl
make
make test
make install

Using ptune-ui

  1. Select your standard (NTSC, PAL, or SECAM) from the top left drop down list.
  2. Select your frequency map from the drop down list below that.
  3. Select the input you are using from the top right drop down list.

Now, tune to a channel by:

  • selecting one from the drop down list below that
  • using the graphical numpad
  • using the channel up or channel down buttons.
