SYNOPSIS

       kaffeine	[-d, --debug] [--tempfile] [-f,	--fullscreen] [-m, --minimal]
		[-t, --alwaysontop] [--audiocd]	[--videocd]
		[--aspectratio aspect_ratio] [--dvd] [--dumpdvb]

       Please notice that --channel, --tv, --lastchannel, --audiocd,
       --videocd, --dvd	and files are mutually exclusive.

DESCRIPTION
       Kaffeine	is a media player. What	makes it different from	the others is
       its excellent support of	digital	TV (DVB). Kaffeine has user-friendly
       interface, so that even first time users	can start immediately playing
       their movies: from DVD (including DVD menus, titles, chapters, etc.),
       VCD, or a file.

       Kaffeine	uses libVLC as video/audio play	backend.

OPTIONS
       -d --debug
	   Enable all debug messages. Please notice that Kaffeine also allows
	   fine-tuning debug messages, by enabling messages per	category, by
	   using the environment var:

	    QT_LOGGING_RULES=kaffeine.category.debug=true

	   where category can be:

	   cam
	       for dvb CAM logs

	   dev
	       for dvb device and libdvbv5 logs

	   dvbsi
	       for dvb MPEG-TS SI parsing logs

	   epg
	       for dvb EPG logs

	   dvb
	       for other dvb logs

	   config
	       for configuration logs

	   mediawidget
	       for media widget	logs

	   playlist
	       for playlist logs

	   sql
	       for SQL lite logs

	   vlc
	       for libVlc logs

       --tempfile
	   The files/URLs opened by the	application will be deleted after use

       -f --fullscreen
	   Start in full screen	mode. When in full screen mode,	all menus are
	   hidden by default. In order to unhide the menus, move the mouse to
	   the menu locations, e. g. to	the top/bottom or left position	of the
	   screen.

       -m --minimal
	   Start in minimal mode. In minimal mode, the window decoration with
	   the title bar is shown. All other menus are hidden by default. In
	   order to unhide the menus, move the mouse to	the menu locations, e.
	   g. to the top/bottom	or left	position of the	Kaffeine window.

	   Starts in minimal mode

       -t --alwaysontop
	   Tells the window manager to start Kaffeine main window always on
	   top of other	windows. This option can be disabled later via the
	   window manager, usually by clicking the title bar with the right
	   mouse button	and deselecting	the always on top button box.

       --aspectratio aspect_ratio
	   Forces Kaffeine to start with an specific aspect ratio, disabling
	   the automatic mode. This can	be useful on wide and ultra-wide
	   monitors, where the user always want	to see video in	full screen
	   mode	using the maximum possible resolution. Valid values are: 1:1,
	   4:3,	5:4, 16:9, 16:10, 2.21:1, 2.35:1 and 2.39:1. If	an invalid
	   value is passed, or if this option is not used, it will default to
	   automatic mode.

       --audiocd
	   Play	Audio CD

       --videocd
	   Play	Video CD

       --dvd
	   Play	DVD

       --dumpdvb
	   Dump	dvb data (debug	option)

       --channel name /	number
	   Play	TV channel

       --tv channel
	   (deprecated option)

       --lastchannel
	   Play	last tuned TV channel

       files
	   Files or URLs to play

FILES
       Kaffeine	uses the file scanfile.dvb with	a list of known	channels per
       locality	and per	Satellite (for DVB-S).

       When either new channels	are added on some City,	or when	new Satellite
       beams are added,	which are not available	in Kaffeine, either use
       dvbv5-scan or w_scan to generate	a new file (in the latter case,
       converted to the	proper format using dvb-format-convert), and submit it
       to <linux-media@vger.kernel.org>, with the subject "[PATCH]
       dtv-scan-tables:	some description". The new patch will be added to
       scanfile.dvb and	the updated file will be available to be updated from
       the Internet in the Kaffeine application.
