Free channels software for linux

Channel is a generic/simple facility with the purpose of making event dispatching and message passing as straightforward to use as data structures:
Channel is a template library, with its major components configurable as template parameters:
template
<
class Id_Type,
class Id_Trait = IdTrait ,
class SynchPolicy = ACE_MT_SYNCH,
class AllocPolicy,
class Router = MapRouter
>
class Channel
By replacing Id_Type, Id_Trait and Router with various concrete classes, Channel can support table/linear message routing, hierarchical routing and associative routing (Linda style) at the demand of user. The same way, we can use integer, string, POD structs or any class as message ids (provided that proper operations are defined with Id_Trait)
Channel provides complete publish/subscribe interface for channel members (peer threads in message passing and objects in event dispatching) to pub/sub message/event ids/types and send/receive messages/events
Channels are process local entities which can be "connected" to allow transparent distributed communication between members in different channels (Connectors based on tcp socket and unix domain socket are provided as samples)
Namespace control:
The ids published/subscribed by channel members constitute channels namespace.
Channel provides publish/subscribe scope control; When ids are published/subscribed, peers can specify desired scope (LOCAL, REMOTE, GLOBAL)
When 2 channels are connected, their namespaces are automatically "merged", which is transparent to both channel members and programmers. Members can communicate with members in remote channels the same way as with local members (by pub/sub ids).
Namespace merge/integration is controlled by:
Id scope specification
filters and translators defined at channel connections
Channel communication are peer-2-peer; there are no central daemons required for message passing.
Channel support both asynchronous message passing and synchronous event dispatching models.
Channel is built on top of
ACE (Adaptive Communication Environment) to gain platform independence.
Enhancements:
- The framework was ported to Windows XP with VC8.
- Dispatching policy was added as a Channel template parameter to support various dispatching algorithms.
- Broadcast and simple RoundRobin dispatching policies were implemented for testing.
- Callback was changed to functor style so that normal functions and functors can be directly used as callbacks.

Relay-bot is a program we initially wrote because our group of friends that hang out on one channel could never seem to all stay on EFnet, and even if we could EFnet was splitting so badly at the time that it was unusable. However, we couldnt readily switch to another network because not everybody is always online and a few people wanted to stick with EFnet because there were other friends of theirs still there. So, relay-bot was born. It allowed us to split our channel across 2 (actually, 3 or 4) different IRC networks fairly effectively.
You[l need a copy Of Perl since perlay bot is written in Perl. Youll also need a copy of Net::IRC.
Theres currently no real installation routine; just untar the tarball, edit "relay-bot.config" and run "relay-bot.pl".
Enhancements:
- relay-bot.config: Fixed small issue in example config file
- BUGS, relay-bot.pl: Prepping for update to a new release

XChat-XMMS is an XChat script for controlling XMMS. Use XMMS from within XChat, including remote control and having XChat interact with your IRC channel or /msg (including allowing remote users to browse your playlist)

It can send out messages to channels or other IRC users, and supports searching playlists with Perl regular expresions, DCC transfers, understands MP3 and Ogg-Vorbis tags, caches playlists for quick searches, and allows remote playlist browsing via /msg. It also supports auto- messages and auto-topics.

shalVideo is a TV record scheduling program, the goal is that you can just use your computer just like a video recorder.

shalVideo just gives you the abstraction from other tools you MUST have installed, look at the Requirements for details.

shalVideo reads the channels list from a file that you have to write down, or download if there is one for your place. Right now, thanks to JCamGra, you can create the channels file from xawtv config using the xawitv2svch script

Media Listings project aims to provide a comfortable way to see the TV listings of supported TV channels. More exactly, it displays defined number of programs, which are yet to come, based on current date and time.

Clicking one of the displayed programs will start your default browser and navigate to appropriate additional info page of the program.

Octavian is a realtime software synthesizer for the GNULinux operating system. Octavian is design is like analog modular synthesizers, so it can be used both as a synth and as an effect processor.

Modular tasks separation allows to extend features in a simple way. Modules can be connected between each other via channels.

Octavian provides two types of channels: audio and control (MIDI), so they can be freely converted to each other (e.g. MIDI can be converted to "voltage" in order to control modules that support voltage-controlling and vice versa).

Dynamic MP3 Lister was a project I started a long time ago to create dynamic lists of MP3s quickly and easily.

Features MP3 Information extraction for things like bitrate, channels, playtime and more.

Please note that this script is discontinued, and is only shown here now as an example of my work.

Amarok XM Tuner is a script that allows playing of xmonline channels through Amarok. Based on a shell script by B. Galliart it requires python and pycurl. You must have a valid xmonline account. The tuner is opened from the playlist.
