NAME
utoppya —
Topfield TF5000PVR DVB recorder file
manipulation program
SYNOPSIS
utoppya |
[-f device]
command ... |
DESCRIPTION
utoppya is the userland interface to the Topfield
TF5000PVR range of DVB recorders (nicknamed `Toppy') which uses the
utoppy(4) device driver.
The options are as follows:
-f- Communicate with device instead of the default /dev/utoppy0.
Using the services of the
utoppy(4) driver, utoppya can perform the
following operations, specified by the command
operand:
df- Display disk size and free space
ls[directory]- List the files in the specified directory. Default is the Toppy's root directory.
mkdir⟨directory⟩- Make the specified directory. You must supply the full pathname to directory.
rm⟨pathname⟩- Delete the file or directory specified by pathname.
rename⟨source⟩ ⟨target⟩- Rename the file or directory specified by the source operand to the destination file or directory specified by the target operand.
get[-prt] ⟨toppyfile⟩ [localfile]- Copy toppyfile from the Toppy to
localfile on the local file system. If
localfile is omitted, the file will be copied into
the current directory and will be named using the last component of the
toppyfile operand. If
localfile is ‘-’, then
toppyfile will be copied to the standard output.
The following options are available for the
getcommand:-p- Display a progress bar.
-r- This option is useful if you wish to resume a previously interrupted
getcommand. Instead of restarting from the beginning of the file, the transfer will resume where it left off. -t- Enable ‘
Turbo’ mode. This instructs the Toppy to drop everything and concentrate on transferring the file as quickly as possible. You will be able to watch live TV, but all other functions, including changing channel via the remote control, will be inoperative.
put[-prt] ⟨localfile⟩ ⟨toppyfile⟩- Copy localfile on the local filesystem to
toppyfile on the Toppy. If
toppyfile specifies a directory on the Toppy, the
last component of the localfile operand will be
appended to the toppyfile operand.
The options described for the
getcommand (above) also apply to theputcommand.
