[Mplayer-dvb] Mplayer and DVBsat card

[Thomas Glomann]

Hi,

try to use rgb32 as outputformat (see docs) . then it schould work though it 
is very slow and choppy.  any other format didn't work for me either. I also 
got a green image.  
 But why don't you just use xawtv or KVDR or simply connect a real TV set to 
your computer ;)

bye
Tom
