Thanks for answering..
I resolved the "green screen" problem, and now, starting VDR with the 
analogtv plugin, I can see the DVB's channels but not the analog ones..
I added lines for the analog channels in channels.conf and when I switch 
to one of this channels, i get in /var/log/message:

Mar 29 10:02:19 troy vdr[15514]: switching to channel 4
Mar 29 10:02:19 troy vdr[15527]: transfer thread started (pid=15527, 
tid=49156)
Mar 29 10:02:19 troy vdr[15528]: receiver on device 5 thread started 
(pid=15528, tid=65541)

(where 4 is the analog channel)
but all i can see is a black screen... this time the "m" key is working 
and i can switch back to dvb channels.
Maybe is the format of the lines in the channels.conf wrong?
I followed the README in the analogtv package and I know the frequency 
of analog channels in my country, but I don't know how to set some of 
the others parameters. Here is a line for an analog channel in my 
channels.conf:

ANALOG Chan:519250:B6C12D0:C:0:160:80:0:A0:612:0:0:0

I don't know how to set the arbitrary parameters... have they to be 
unique in the channels.conf?
And what is "SID - Service ID" (the fourth parameters from the end)? 
Reading plugin README i find out that i have to "link" this value(612)to 
the ChannelMap.h. But I don't understand the way i should do this.

I also tried to use the Composite Line In with the following line

composite1:1:B6C12D12:C:0:160:80:0:A0:65004:0:0:0

but without any results...

Thanks in advance
Vincenzo
