Sounds OK. I guess it is ready for addition at Kaffeine.

Answering your questions:

<!--<member>qt5options(1)</member>  only for application with a GUI FIXME use 
if we have an updated man page qt5options-->

Kaffeine does accept qt5options. It doesn't do anything special to them, just 
whatever Qt5 implements.

<!--<member>foo(1)</member> FIXME any ref to an other man page here ?  vlc? or 
an utility to detect a tv card and gives outpout necessary to unse kaffeine?-->

For now, I don't think we need to point to VLC manpage, as there's nothing 
there that would help the user. Yet, we can mention at the manpage that it uses 
libVLC as video/audio play backend.

The only thing external that Kaffeine indirectly uses is this tree: 
https://git.linuxtv.org/dtv-scan-tables.git/

It contains the list of known channels per locality and per Satellite (for 
DVB-S). There's a developer's utility that generates a Kaffeine-specific file 
(scanfile.dvb) with uses such information. We run such tool from time to time, 
and we store the scanfile on a public repository. There's a button at the 
"Configura Television" screen that says: "Update scan data over Internet". When 
the user clicks on it, it downloads the latest file stored at: 
http://kaffeine.kde.org/scanfile.dvb.qz (I'm actually thinking that maybe the 
best would be to store it at linuxtv.org, and add there some automation to 
auto-create it when the upstream dtv-scan-tree changes).

Unfortunately, we don't have a manfile for dtv-scan-tables yet - patches are 
welcome.

Anyway, if the user has the need for a channel that it is not listed on 
Kaffeine, he needs to either use dvbv5-scan or w_scan to generate a new file 
(in the latter case, converted to the proper format using dvb-format-convert), 
and submit it to linux-me...@vger.kernel.org, with "[PATCH] dtv-scan-tables: 
<some description>" at the subject, for us to add it at the tree and create a 
new scanfile.dvb.qz.

So, I guess we should mention the above procedure and point to the manpages for 
dvbv5-scan and w_scan.
