TvOnResEl

Sorry, this project is discontinued because of a lack of time. If you want to start maintaining it, contact me.

This program is used to ease the watching and saving of the free TV channel broadcasted by the ResEl (students’ network of TELECOM Bretagne). This program is useful only for people in TELECOM Bretagne, so I won’t completly translate this article into English. But it can be easily adapted to other networks.

Presentation

This program is written in Java. It was my first program in Java. I improved it a lot along the new versions, but there are probably still some bugs. Tell me if you find them.

Features

  1. Display the available channels list, this list can be updated through a button in the configuration
  2. Show a channel (“Lire la chaine” button or double-click in the list)
  3. Save immediatly a channel (“Enregistrer la chaîne” button) (All files are put in a directory you can configure)
  4. Programm the saving of a channel (“Programmer un enregistrement” button). It can be unique or repeted per day or week. If VLC stops during the saving (bug), a new saving is immediatly started.
  5. Timeshifting (simply start a saving and read it)
  6. Display the TV program. You can configure a saving directly from the program
  7. Browse current savings and programmations
  8. Browse, manage and read your saved files
