To start DVB you do dvb://[card#] on the command line.  You don't have 
to provide a card number if there is only one.
To start TV you do tv://.  The options are incompatible.
Tuning is different.  On DVB you have to provide a "channels.conf" file 
generated by a dvb channel scan program.  In the future it would be nice 
to read the channels.conf into the playlist and use that to specify a 
specific channel.

I am attaching the patch to show the dvb in the GUI.  As I said, it is 
brute force, because it does not consider the card number.
