no, it includes other files that depend on dvb_defaults.h (a bit 
annoying, though)

you are right: in dvbin.h you should add at line 5
#include "dvb_defaults.h"

You have dvb-in module compiled in mplayer, now.

Actually there isn't any menu for the channels (I'm working at it now).

You should compile a list of free-to-air channels with the same format 
used by tzap (tzap provides a precompiled list) in

~/.mplayer/channels.conf

then, assuming you have a channel named "MyChannel" in that list  you 
can run
mplayer -dvbin on=1:prog=MyChannel

and change to the next and the previous with 'h' and 'k'.

Does it work?

If it still doesn't go, please run
mplayer  -v -v -dvbin on=1:prog=MyChannel >& err

and post the file err, thanks.
