Summary:

  TV-like OSD display for alsa sound cards with lirc support

Introduction:

  This program shows you the volume level of your alsa card in a similar
  way as a TV would.
  If built with lirc support, you can also use your remote control to
  change the volume level or mute any channel.

Requirements:

  The only requirement is alsa, but if you want the remote control
  functionality you would need lirc.

Compilation:

  Just run make and everything should be detected.
  You may override the defaults, for example:

  make LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include

  Some important parameters you can use:
  - LIRC
    Set to yes or no if you want to override the automatic detection.
  - SYSTEM_XOSD
    Set to yes or no if you want to override the automatic detection.
  - STATIC_XOSD
    Set to yes to build statically against xosd.
    By default it will link dynamically if a dynamic library is found.

Installation:

   Just run: make install

Configuration:

   If built with lirc functionality you may configure its behaviour through ~/.lircrc.
   For example:
   begin
      prog = airmix
      button = vol-
      config = dec 1
      repeat = 1
   end
   begin
      prog = airmix
      button = vol+
      config = inc 1
      repeat = 1
   end
   begin
      prog = airmix
      button = mute
      config = togglemute
   end

Usage:

   Available command line parameters:
   --card <cardname>		default: default	for example: hw:0
   --channel <channel name> 	default: Master		for example: PCM
   --font <font>		default: -*-helvetica-*-r-*-*-34-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
   --color			default: green		for example: #ffcc00
   --daemon
