I think it all works like it should, but you didn't point the configure
script from MPlayer to the DVB-driver sources. So it cannot play via the
DVB card. To confirm this, search for a file called "grab.mpg". If you
find it, you have to recompile MPlayer with the configure option
--extraincdir=/path/to/DVB/include or put the DVB sources into /usr/src/DVB.
