     Hopefully he monitors this list (he mailed me for fxtv help with what
seems to be a bogus e-mail address...)

Teardrop Sky:
 |im wondering if there's an easy way you know of to adjust the source for fxtv
 |so that i can change the channel easily from a remote computer
 |or at least to set up something where i can change the channel via stdin or such
 |
 |(i know nothing of xwidgets and not alot of c, but i think if i can
 |  get the program to read stdin i can write something in perl for the rest)
 |thanks.

I have good news for you.  Setting the channel is accomplished through a
device handle that supports simultaneously being open by multiple
processes.  So you can set the channel external to fxtv and it'll just
work.  Fxtv rereads the tuner when you move mouse focus back into its
window so at that time it'll update the displayed channel name/number
annotation, but the video window will reflect the change back when you sent
it to the tuner.

Compile the attached program (cc -o setchannel setchannel.c) and then just
provide a channel number on the command line (e.g. setchannel 40).
