\item Select the desirable channel, and watch TV. You will have to enable the audio by checking the \textit{Monitor audio} in the Recording window for sound.
\end{itemize}
The main menu pulldown, \texttt{Settings $\rightarrow$ Preferences $\rightarrow$ Playback A} and \texttt{B} Tabs, must be properly configured in order to take advantage of the Dual Screen Mode capability.
-In the main menu Window pulldown there are \textit{Tile left} and \textit{Tile right} options for the 2 monitors. If you have only 1 monitor, you will see no change upon activating these options. Tiling is possible due to the existence of one long horizontal screen display buffer. Tile left takes \CGG{} and moves all of its windows to the $2^{nd}$ monitor/TV and Tile right puts it back to the $1^{st}$ monitor. The left and right monitors are the left part or right part of a Playback A/B Xwindow host referenced in the Video Config Playback A/B for separate X screens. Shortcuts for Tile left and Tile rights are the letters \texttt{a} and \texttt{b} on the keyboard once you have set \textit{Remote Control mode}. Below is a summary of the configuration letters:

\CGG{} DVB recording/playback can now easily be done in \textit{couch potato} mode using a remote control. This comes in handy when you want to playback on a big TV screen for multiple person viewing. You can use the Application/Menu key on the keyboard to toggle between standard \CGG{} usage or a Dispatcher methodology through use of a remote control, an Android programmed device such as a tablet, or keyboard. The Application/Menu key on most keyboards is between the Alt and Ctrl keys on the right hand side bottom and depicts a menu on it either with or without a pointer (see image below). An ati-x10 Remote Control device (figure~\ref{fig:remote01}) is currently working with \CGG{} and other remote controls may work but have never been tried. The red/orange box on the top left main screen of \CGG{} indicates Dispatcher Method access is activated which allows for keyboard grab which routes all key strokes until toggled off. Below are the currently defined operations.

\begin{itemize}
\item Choose \texttt{Settings $\rightarrow$ Preferences $\rightarrow$ Recording} tab in the Preferences menu (figure~\ref{fig:recordingx}).
\item Choose a \textit{File Format} -- a common suggestion is \textit{ffmpeg} with a \textit{file type} of mp4. In some cases depending on your capture card, the File Format will be set to \textit{MPEG stream} capture. Some formats support MPEG stream capture technique, otherwise the data has to be decoded first and then encoded.
\item Also, \textit{Device path} should be verified to be correct in case you have more than 1 device. In the 2 previously mentioned devices, it should proabably be set to /dev/video0.
\end{itemize}
+\textit{Step 3}: Next use the \textit{File} pulldown to choose \textit{Record} and then the Recording menu will popup (figure~\ref{fig:vhs01}).

\begin{itemize}
\item Click on the Antenna icon ($3^{rd}$ icon from the left on the left side of the right hand screen window).
\item In the popup \textit{Channels} menu, click on \texttt{Add} which brings up the \textit{Edit Channel} menu.
\item Use the down arrow in the \textit{Input} box to display the available options. In the test case, and very likely your case too, \textit{S-Video 1} should be picked.
- \item In the Recording menu, be sure to designate a complete path and filename in the \textit{Path:} textbox which will be used to record/write the playing media. Remember you must have the media on a file in order for \CGG{} to load it on the timeline for editing purposes.

\item Then highlight \textit{S-Video} in the \textit{Channels} Menu. Again, the choice in the Channels Menu might not be S-Video -- choices could vary widely. Start recording in your Recording menu by clicking on the second icon from the left, next to the \textit{Transport} label (it is usually a round red colored button).
\item Next press \textit{play} on your media hardware device. If on the \textit{Video In} side window you see only noise, then S-Video or something else was an incorrect choice and you will have to perform some tests to find correct choices.
