XMMS DVB Input Plugin is a plugin for XMMS for users
with a DVB-S (Digital Video Broadcast/Satellite) PCI
adapter supported by the driver from LinuxTV to
receive and record audio streams from this adapter.
The incoming MPEG-1 layer II audio data is
decompressed and fed to XMMS which can then in turn
process it any way it pleases. At the same time the
plugin can optionally write the original MPEG stream to
file for archiving or further processing at a later time.
Recordings can be automatically split either by predefined intervals or whenever the energy level drops below a configurable amount for an (also configurable) duration.
