VLC launcher for Freebox TV

Project description

This package is used to wrap vlc and use it with the FreeboxTV.

Requirements

You need vlc

Installation

Install freeboxtv with easy_install:

$ sudo easy_install -U freeboxtv

Troubleshooting

Some older versions of vlc require a –m3u-extvlcopt option to read .m3u files options. If you need this, you can add a .freeboxtv in your $HOME and add this:

[default]
options = --m3u-extvlcopt

If you still having problems, run:

$ fbxtv -d

And send the traceback at gael at gawel dot org.

Usage

Get channels list:

$ fbxtv -l

Launch the full playlist:

$ fbxtv

Launch a channel:

$ fbxtv <channel_id|channel_name>

For example:

$ fbxtv nova # launch radio nova

$ fbxtv france 2 # launch France 2

Close vlc:

$ fbxtv -s
