# lvs-studio(1)

a MJPEG-tools GUI

## NAME

Linux Video Studio - a MJPEG-tools GUI

## SYNOPSIS

studio \[-h\] \[-v\] \[-p num\] \[-t\] \[-d\] \[-c name\]

## DESCRIPTION

**Linux Video Studio** is a small-'n-simple GUI for the MJPEG-tools (http://mjpeg.sourceforge.net/). The MJPEG-tools can be used to record video from a zoran-based capture card (DC10+, Buz, LML33), playback video to the same card and encode video to MPEG. Linux Video Studio tries to extend this with simple editing functions, like deleting frames, adding frames from new videos, moving frames, scene detection etc. All this hoping to be useful.

## OPTIONS

**Linux Video Studio** ('studio') accepts the following options:

- **-h**

  Prints a help/usage message and quits

- **-v**

  Prints version information and quits

- **-p num**

  Gives you the possibility to select a Video4Linux Xvideo port to be used. By default (if you omit this option or if you give 0 as an argument), Linux Video Studio will try to select one automatically. You can select another one with this option or in the Options window.

- **-t**

  Prints Video4Linux Xvideo ports information and quits.

- **-d**

  Enables verbose/debugging mode.

- **-c name**

  The name (default: 'studio') is used to safe the configuration. By using multiple names, you can use multiple configurations all for one user. For example, if you have both a Buz and a DC10+, you could use '-c buz' for the Buz and '-c dc10' for the DC10+ card so that the two configurations will both be saved separately.

## BUGS

Do we contain bugs? Yes, very likely. We just don't know which bugs yet, so that's for the user (you) to find out! If you've found bugs, please mail a bug report to the developers (see **CONTACTING**). Before sending bug reports saying nothing more than "it won't work", please try running in a terminal window with the -d (debug) option and attach the output to the bug report. Also, if it gives a segfault,  please run the core-file through gdb or run studio within gdb and attach  the output of gdb too, so that we know where it crashed.

## CONTACTING
