ttb "This could be a great application if it worked. My day of test was 11-jan-2014 And I suspect that somewhere in 2013 teletext has changed his layout and TTB by version of v1.0.1 has not adapted to this change. Same is true for another teletext browser called telegnome (v0.1.1)." |

vlc "VLC Player can be used as a TV-viewer as well. Comparable with ME-TV only better for what concerns; - speed in switching channels. - loudness of the inbuild speakers of the PC. The ME-TV was a little to soft, I had to use external speakers. However quite some will not succeed in getting a working TV-viewer in general, because of the missing driver. Therefor I offer this practical guide in tackling this problem: First be sure you have a driver installed for the DVB-T USB-stick. This can be confirmed when the LED of your DVB-T USB-stick do burn. So if a LED doesn't burn it means there's no driver. This can be solved easily in Linux with distro's based on ubuntu like Lbuntu/Peppermint/Bodhi by installing the driver through the Software Manager. Type the word driver in the textbox and you filter at all the available driver-software. For me I had to choose: LINUX-FIRMWARE-NONFREE After installing a driver this way and before trying your TV-viewer out: 1) you first need to boot your Linux-machine so the driver can be effective. If it's a correct driver: 2) a LED on the DVB-T USB-stick starts to burn. If it doesn't your DVB-T USB-stick can not operate, look for other drivers. 3) ONLY after carrying out successfully step 2 it makes sense firing up your TV viewer and is scanning the available channels peanuts. Hope I brought Linux a step forward with this small contribution of mine, as it is an aweome Operating System requiring little resources like RAM, HD and CPU power. Especially the lightweight versions of Linux. Also seems Linux machines more secure/save then Windows. Hope you all succeed in making Linux lightweight versions your first Operating System.
