True.  So  mencoder dvb:// -ovc copy -oac copy does modify the input? Or would
that be the same as  -dumpstream?

Ah, well. That's a pitty. Probably the TU BS is researching on what I want but
if it is so high development it won't be free:(

Did  it with mplayer -fs -v -vo cvidix dvb://ard &> mplayer.out to have cvidix
and to see when the second channel is visible. Again pressing the h changes it
but  then  the  q  for quitting appears in the tty and I have to close mplayer
with Ctrl-C. mplayer.out attached.
