hi,

am i the only one who is completely unsatisfied with tvtime ?
with  xawtv i am satisfied as i was it in the last years ( RHLx  / FC1 )
sure xawtv has some bugs, but ...


xawtv:    http://bytesex.org/xawtv/
- better image quality ( with an digital-sat-receiver via 
scart-svideo-cabel )
- 'export DISPLAY=remotehost:0; xawtv'  works here without problems
because i have several workstations it is a nice feature to export xawtv 
to the other workstations.


tvtime:
- really bad image quality in directly comparison with xawtv
    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=117651
- 'export DISPLAY'  or  'tvtime --display=remotehost:0'    is  not working




unfortunately it looks like  tvtime  should replace  xawtv  in fc2
in my eyes is it a step backwards and not forwards  :-(
tv-history afair in  RHL7.x -> FCx :
    gtv   ->   xawtv   ->    tvtime
