TV-Viewer

TV-Viewer is a frontend to watch and record TV. Designed for analog TV-cards working with ivtv, pvrusb2 or cx18 driver and others with a build-in hardware MPEG-2 encoder. The Gui is written in Tk, so it does not rely on a special desktop environment.

Great job! I was using vlc for tv, but after using tv viewer, I use it almost exclusively now. Keep up the good work.

Guess what, this frontend is way better than hauppauge's WinTV. I really like it. Had to install ActiveTCL on Ubuntu 10.04 but Wiki has a great howto for that.
