+Set up and use DVB:
+
+Make sure your device is supported by Linux and running.
+See http://www.linuxtv.org/ for more details.
+
+If the DVB device works on your system (see 'hwinfo --usb'
+when using a DVB usb device for example), then make sure you
+have the scan util from dvb-utils available:
+
+# aptitude install dvb-utils
+
+Then create a channels.conf configuration file:
+
+% scan /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/... > ~/.mplayer/channels.conf
+
+You can find some example configuration files on
+your grml system in ~/.channels. Usage example:
+
+% ln -s ~/.mplayer/channels.conf-AT-graz ~/.mplayer/channels.conf
+
+Tip: w_scan (see http://free.pages.at/wirbel4vdr/w_scan/index2.html)
+might be useful if you do not know the initial configuration
+details.
