## Introduction

The LinTV icon

&kmyapplication; is a program that allows you to watch and recording TV. It uses Mplayer and Mencoder (see www.mplayerhq.hu) as the backends for viewing and recording, respectively. LinTV supports many different TV tuners. Please visit the supported devices section for a list of TV tuners known to work with LinTV.

LinTV was designed with the end-user in mind. The end goal for &kmyapplication; is to create a down-right simple and easy-to-use program that everyone can use without having to grep through tons of documentation just to figure out how to watch TV. If it's not obvious in &kmyapplication;, then it needs to be fixed or redesigned!

If you have any problems or would like a feature implemented, please either report a bug using Right-click -> Help -> Report Bug or send me an email at xtremek2009@gmail.com. If you have any questions, please visit the FAQ section.

### Requirements

In order to successfully use &kmyapplication;, you need &kde; 1.1. Foobar.lib is required in order to support the advanced &kmyapplication; features. &kmyapplication; uses about 5 megs of memory to run, but this may vary depending on your platform and configuration.

All required libraries as well as &kmyapplication; itself can be found on The &kmyapplication; home page.

You can find a list of changes at http://apps.kde.org/kapp.

### Compilation and Installation

### Configuration

Don't forget to tell your system to start the `dtd` dicer-toaster daemon first, or &kmyapplication; won't work !

### If your TV tuner doesn't work...

    If you can't get your TV tuner to work with LinTV, please check the following:
     * Check to make sure your device has the correct driver loaded
     * Make sure you have the lintv-mplayer executable in /bin or /usr/bin.

    If you still can't get it working, please email me at xtremek2009@gmail.com and tell
    what's the name of your TV tuner, what driver it uses, and possibly if there are
    any special programs for changing channels or inputs would be quite helpful also!
