DESCRIPTION

15       tvtime-scanner allows a user to  scan  all  frequencies  for  stations.
16       This  is useful for European cable provides such as UPC or Casema which
17       do not use standard frequency tables for their channels.   tvtime-scan‐
18       ner  checks  for frequencies across the full band and writes it to your
19       stationlist.xml file in a table called "Custom".  This can be  selected
20       by  running  "tvtime  --frequencies=custom"  or by selecting the Custom
21       frequency table within the OSD menu inside tvtime.
