Hi,

I can't use mplayer to watch TV with my Technotrend DVB-S card using the 
dvbin plugin. The following does work but is uncomfortable:

szap -c ~/mychannels.conf -r "ProSieben" &
mplayer - < /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0

Using mplayer's builtin DVB support doesn't work:

[philwo at erazor philwo]$ mplayer -v -v -v -dvbin file=~/mychannels.conf 
dvb://

I've attached the mychannels.conf to the mail. I created it using 
"./scan -x 0 -t 1 -l UNIVERSAL dvb-s/Astra-19.2E | tee 
/home/philwo/mychannels.conf".
