Use

1. Find the program you want to download in the archive

2. Run tv-dl and give it the URL of the show page as a parameter, for example:

 ./tv-dl http://www.ceskatelevize.cz/ivysilani/10348527168-jak-na-ryby-s-rudou-hrusinskym/211562220200013-jak-na-ryby-s-rudou-hrusinskym/

3. The script will download the show in the highest possible quality.

List of qualities/videos

To list possible qualities, run tv-dl with parameters in the form:

 ./tv-dl -q list URL

To download, use one of the identifiers that will be listed in the left column instead of the word sheet. The selection of a video from the Jan Kraus Show page (parameter -m ) proceeds in a similar way.

Elections

 -g, --get-url does not download, only prints the URL of the video (can be used in some players)
  -q QUALITY, --quality QUALITY
                        sets the quality (options sheet)
  -m MOVIE, --movie MOVIE
                        selects a video from a page (options sheet)
  -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
                        sets the output file

Script tv-play

This script does not download, but directly starts the player with the given program. It accepts the same parameters as tv-dl . totem is used as the default player.

Selecting a different player is possible by creating a file ~/.tv-play with contents in the form player=příkaz_pro_spuštění_přehrávače Unfortunately, it probably only works with totem...
