It +captures a given set of dvb channels from one dvb device and provides +the streams via minimal http. + +OPTIONS +------- + +The following options can be passed to the *gstdvbbackend* daemon: + +*-D, --nodaemonize*:: + This option instructs *gstdvbbackend* to run in foreground + instead of becoming a daemon which is the default. + +*-u, --username <username>*:: + run as this user. If no group is specified (*-g*) the default group of + the user is used. The default is to not drop privileges. + +*-g, --groupname <groupname>*:: + run as this group. If no username is specified (*-u*) this gets ignored. + The default is to not drop privileges. + +*-C, --chroot <path>*:: + Instruct *gstdvbbackend* to run in a chroot jail. The default is + to not run in chroot. + +*-P, --write-pid <filename>*:: + Instruct *gstdvbbackend* to write it's pid to this file. The default is + to not create a pid file. + +*-L, --log <target>:<level>[,<param1>[,<param2>[..]]]*:: + add log target to logging system. This can be invoked several times + in order to log to different targets at the same time. Every target + has its own log level which is a number between 0 and 5. Where 0 means + disabling log and 5 means debug messages are enabled. + + The file target can be used more than once with different levels. + If no target is provided at the command line a single target with the + config *syslog:3,gstdvbbackend,daemon* is added. + + The following targets are supported: + + *syslog*;; log to syslog daemon, parameters <level>[,<logname>[,<facility>]] + *file*;; log to file, parameters <level>[,<path>] + *stdout*;; log to standard output, parameters <level> + *stderr*;; log to standard error, parameters <level> + +*-U, --debug*:: + This option instructs *gstdvbbackend* to run in debug mode. It implicits *-D* + (don't daemonize) and adds a log target with the configuration + *stdout:5* (logging with maximum level). In future releases there might + be additional output when this option is supplied. + + +BUGS +---- +Most likely there are some bugs in *gstdvbbackend*. If you find a bug, please let +the developers know at equinox@helsinki.at. Of course, patches are preferred. + + +SEE ALSO +-------- + +*gst-launch*(1) + +AUTHORS +------- + +Christian Pointner <equinox@spreadspace.org> + + +RESOURCES +--------- + +Project Page: http://www.spreadspace.org/gstdvbbackend + + +COPYING +------- + +Copyright \(C) 2011 Christian Pointner.
