Welcome to the RetoTV Wiki. This is the main source for all your RetroTV inquiries.
== Introduction ==
RetroTV is a project that didn’t appear to exist: the goal is to run a fully automated TV station with virtually zero knowledge. The project depends on open source tools and technologies and is just a hub linking all these things together. Its not the goal to make the most elaborate, flexible and dynamic programming system on earth; it aims for straight and easy streaming, no questions asked.
== End user goals ==
Running a fully automated TV station (streaming) will be straightforward. Only this:
- Add content files (bumpers, shows, commercials)
- Specify what show airs at what time
- Run the “create playlist” command
== Technologies used ==
- Creating playlists: PHP
- Storing show-states: SQLLITE
- Playlists: XSPF
- Streaming: VLC
