Me TV, it's TV for me computer

Me TV is a digital television viewer for GNOME.

Me TV was developed for the modern digital lounge room with a PC for a media centre that is capable of normal PC tasks (web surfing, word processing and watching TV). It is not designed to be a full-blown media centre such as MythTV but will integrate well with the existing GNOME desktop. If you think that a remote is something that belongs in a museum then Me TV is probably for you.

Features currently include:

  • Completely mouse driven (Hooray!)
  • Current channel and program information
  • Instant Record
  • Double-click fullscreen
  • Very simple installation and set up

It currently supports only DVB-T but I'm willing to add support for other DVB types because it seems straight forward. It just needs to be tested.

Why Me TV?

The name Me TV comes from Australian slang for "My TV". Hence, "it's TV for me computer" is Australian slang for "it's TV for my computer". The pattern can be followed for all instances of "My", such as "Me dog", "Me ute" and of course "Me beer".
