An analogue TV viewing application. Focused to use KDE 4 new features, like Plasma, and intended to be what the (likely) discontinued kdetv was for KDE 3.
In the original authour's own words [1]:
- It uses mplayer and mencoder as the backends for viewing & recording, respectively. I was noticing in the application porting status page on techbase that the status of a KDE4 version of kdetv was unknown. So, I'd like to suggest LinTV as a drop-in replacement for it. I've attached a screenshot showing just a few of the features LinTV has at the moment, even though some features don't fully work as expected sometimes.
- I'd eventually like to see LinTV go into extragear for KDE4 if possible.
It currently resides within the KDE playground and has, unfortunately, seen only limited further development.
