-----------------------------
Repository : openSUSE-Tumbleweed-Oss
Name : zvbi
Version : 0.2.42-2.1
Arch : x86_64
Vendor : openSUSE
Installed Size : 368.6 KiB
Installed : No
Status : not installed
Source package : zvbi-0.2.42-2.1.src
Upstream URL : https://github.com/zapping-vbi/zvbi/
Summary : Linux "VBI proxy"
Description :
With "video4linux" drivers, only one application at a time can capture
VB data. The 2nd generation "v4l2" API allows multiple clients to
open a device, but still only one client may read from the device. If,
for example, the Nxtvepg daemon runs in the background, users will not be
able to start a Teletext application. The VBI proxy was developed as a
solution to this problem.
