Hi, I am new to Ubuntu. I wanted to use VLC for displaying and
Recording TV programs in all channels transmitted through my Analog cable TV. I
have installed Pinnacle card saa7133 and able to view the same through TVtime but
can’t record. Hence I tried to install VLC. It gets installed but shows
only one channel. Any forward or backward command does not show any new
channel. However, If I activate TVtime and switch to another channel and
deactivate it and then go for VLC I get that new channel(only one) but not the
old! How to make VLC to scan all channels and make it record programs? I am in Please help me to solve this problem. Kumar -- ubuntu-users mailing list [hidden email] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users |

I'd recommend Kaffeine for that purpose. It has very well integrated
tv support. Switching channels and saving the stream to a file works very well for me for quite some time. As far as I know vlc does not support switching of channels. You would have to use a separate tool to control the channels, vlc then streams the selected channel.. HTH! 2009/7/11 Dr G S Kumar <[hidden email]>: > Hi, > > I am new to Ubuntu.

Hi Michael Weller,
Thanks for your suggestion. However even this programme does not help in either viewing or recording Tv programmes (Analog, cable Tv). I went through the procedure given in help of Kaffeine site. It got installed but not displaying any TV channel.
