-
anything vdr can do and will do
-
handles the overlay of your dvb-cards
-
lets you zap through your video devices or display up to
for overlays at once (if you have more than one card).
However - changing the channel via vdr is currently
only supported on the "primary" dvb-interface.
-
The picture in picture allows you to follow the movie at the other device in the small image.
You can exchange those by a single key-press.
-
the Xv-mode lets you zoom the image to larger resolutions and optionally handles
deinterlacing by 50Hz half frame upscaling or field1 upscaling.
-
The Tiny-Sticky-Mode is intended for use with multiple desktops - when you change to another desktop, kvdr will be sticky but also tiny to not obscure to much of the other windows.
-
fullscreen-mode (mouse, dpms and screensaver automatically handled)
-
can be used for "remote" viewing of vdr-recordings if you have 2 dvb-cards
and the remote-video-directory mounted
-
let's you grab images during viewing, playback or recording in jpg or pnm
format, filename is automatically generated out of channel-name, date and
time.
-
let's you control Brightness, Colour, Hue and Contrast of the overlay (not
applied to grab-images!)
-
handles 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios corrected with viewport-dimensions (currently
at 4:3 monitors only)
-
handles PAL and NTSC accordingly (but only PAL tested so far - i'am living
in Germany ;-)

stores all configuration to file
-
sound-handling: mixer-channel, volume and mute using alsa/amixer
