NAME
       xanalogtv - Simulate reception on an old	analog TV set

SYNOPSIS
       xanalogtv  [--display  host:display.screen] [--window] [--root] [--win-
       dow-id  number][--install]  [--visual  visual]  [--cycle]  [--no-cycle]
       [--fps]

DESCRIPTION
       xanalogtv shows a simulation of an old TV set showing test patterns and
       any  other  images  you have provided. It reproduces a wide range of TV
       reception bummage: snow,	bloom, ghosting, and loss of vertical and hor-
       izontal sync. It	also simulates	the  TV	 warming  up.  It  will	 cycle
       through	12 channels, some with images you give it, and some with color
       bars or nothing but static.

       The images that it uses will be grabbed from the	portion	of the	screen
       underlying the window, or from the system's video input,	or from	a ran-
       dom  file  on  disk,  as	 indicated by the grabDesktopImages, grabVide-
       oFrames,	and chooseRandomImages options in  the	~/.xscreensaver	 file;
       see  xscreensaver-settings(1)  for  more	 details. It looks best	with a
       video input or your digital photo collection.
