There are 3 modes of operation on this applications. You can cycle through the 3 modes by

The 3 modes are described below:

On mode
Clicking on the rightmost button <3> for the first time (after the start of WMTV)
will turn the TV on. While in this mode, the left <1> and right <2> buttons change to
preset channels which has been defined in your config file. Use the left button to
move down one channel and the right button to move up one channel.

Tune mode
Clicking again on button <3> after On mode will change WMTV into tune mode. Left-
clicking on the left <1> or right <2> button performs a channel scan. Scanning stops
when there is a strong signal strength. Right-clicking on the left <1> or right <2>

fine tuning to your config file and brings you back into "On mode".

Off mode
Holding down button <3> for about 3 seconds from any of the two modes described above
turns the TV off.

Right-clicking the TV screen mutes/unmutes the audio.

Double left-clicking the TV screen launches the application specified with --exe. If --exe
was not specified, then the built-in full-screen mode is used instead. Double middle-
clicking will always invoke the built-in full screen mode.
