.TH vdr 1 "24 Mar 2002" "1.0.0" "Video Disk Recorder"
.SH NAME
vdr - the Video Disk Recorder
.SH SYNOPSIS
.\" The general command line
.B vdr
[options]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B vdr
implements a complete digital Set-Top-Box and Video Recorder.
It can work with signals received from satellites (DVB-S) as
well as cable (DVB-C) and terrestrial (DVB-T) signals.
At least one DVB card is required to run \fBvdr\fR, but in order
to watch one broadcast while recording another, or to start watching
a recorded programme before the live broadcast has ended (\fBtime shifting\fR),
two DVB cards are necessary. By default \fBvdr\fR can support up to four
DVB cards. The primary DVB card (the one your tv set is connected to) has
to be a "full featured" card, which means it must contain an MPEG decoder
and provide audio and video signal outputs.
\fBvdr\fR uses the On Screen Display of the DVB card to display its menus.
It can be controlled by the PC keyboard, a home built "Remote Control Unit"
(RCU) or the "Linux Infrared Remote Control" (LIRC).
Remote access is possible via the "Simple Video Disk Recorder Protocol" (SVDRP),
which can be accessed on port 2001, for instance by \fBtelnet\fR.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.BI -a\ cmd ,\ --audio= cmd
Send Dolby Digital audio to stdin of command \fIcmd\fR.
.TP
.BI -c\ dir ,\ --config= dir
Read config files from directory \fIdir\fR
(default is to read them from the video directory).
.TP
.B -d, --daemon
Run in daemon mode.
.TP
.BI -D\ num ,\ --device= num
Use only the given DVB device (\fInum\fR = 0, 1, 2...).
There may be several \fB-D\fR options (by default all DVB devices will be used).
.TP
.BI -E\ file ,\ --epgfile= file
Write the EPG data into the given \fIfile\fR
(default is \fI/video/epg.data\fR).
Use \fB-E-\fR to disable this.
If \fIfile\fR is a directory, the file \fIepg.data\fR
will be created in that directory.
.TP
.B -h, --help
Print a help message and exit.
.TP
.BI -l\ level ,\ --log= level
Set logging to \fIlevel\fR.
\fB0\fR\ =\ no logging, \fB1\fR\ =\ errors only,
\fB2\fR\ =\ errors and info, \fB3\fR\ =\ errors, info and debug.
The default logging level is \fB3\fR.
.TP
.B -m, --mute
Mute audio of the primary DVB device at startup.
.TP
.BI -p\ port ,\ --port= port
Use \fIport\fR for SVDRP. A value of \fB0\fR turns off SVDRP.
The default SVDRP port is \fB2001\fR.
You need to edit the file \fIsvdrphosts.conf\fR in order to enable
access to the SVDRP port.
.TP
.BI -r\ cmd ,\ --record= cmd
Call \fIcmd\fR before and after a recording.
.TP
.BI -s\ cmd ,\ --shutdown= cmd
Call \fIcmd\fR to shutdown the computer.
.TP
.BI -t\ tty ,\ --terminal= tty
Set the controlling terminal.
.TP
.BI -v\ dir ,\ --video= dir
Use \fIdir\fR as video directory.
The default is \fI/video\fR.
.TP
.BI -w\ sec ,\ --watchdog= sec
Activate the watchdog timer with a timeout of \fIsec\fR seconds.
A value of \fB0\fR (default) disables the watchdog.
.SH EXIT STATUS

Successful program execution.
.TP
.B 1
An error has been detected which requires the DVB driver and \fBvdr\fR
to be re-loaded.
