Dear Debian Multimedia Maintainers,
I think that there are some typos and potential for improvements in the
package description (1). (CCed l10n-english as it is a new package).
Current state:
Description: Internet television and radio player
FreetuxTV is a video player based on LibVLC allowing you to watch and
record
TV on your PC. A large database (growing daily) of free
WebTV/WebRadio/WebCam
channels in more than 20 languages is accessible. You can also play
streams
from ISP television service if it provides this feature. Moreover, it
is also
possible to easily program your recording on each channel with differents
transcoding formats.
.
The vlc package provides all multimedia codecs required by freetuxtv.
I'm afraid the short description does not adhere to the Developer's
reference,
section 6.2.2 (no need for capitalization). And a program does not allow
something.
Please consider my proposal for a new description.
