DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the vdr command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution to provide an overview about existing vdr versions. The common description of vdr is contained in the vdr(1) manpage.
vdr is a program that can be used to watch TV via a DVB-S card. The program does not need a monitor - all user interaction is done via the TV box and the keyboard or (optionaly) a remote control.
OPTIONS
You can get an overview of the exisiting options with "vdr -h". For detailed descrition look in the miscellaneos documentation distributed with the package. This Debian package contains multiple binaries with different control frontends: Keyboard control (kbd), IR remote control (lirc) and RCU receiver (rcu). A special case is vdr-daemon: this version cannot be controled directly, you need an additional frontend like kvdr to do anything with vdr-daemon.
