Hello everyone - I hope this will be an easy one!

I'm using the latest CVS of everything DVB related I can think of and
the hardware works - I can use other tools (dvbstream/mplayer) to watch
TV on the local 100Mbps network, but I'd prefer to use vls/vlc for this.

Now, I seem to be missing the channel definition file "dvbrc". I've put
one in /root/dvbrc, /root/.dvbrc, /root/.dvbrc.0 and lots of other
places, but vls never seems to find one (see below)
Also, what format is this file in - I've found some that look this this

:TV|
BBC ONE:505833:0:0:0:600:601:0:2:4164
BBC TWO:505833:0:0:0:610:611:0:2:4228


...or this...

transport_stream {
        id = 0x6000;
        original_network_id = 0x233A;
        terrestrial_tuning_info {
                frequency = 537833330;
                bandwidth = "8MHZ";
                constellation = "16-QAM";
                hierarchy = "none";
                code_rate_hp = "3/4";
                code_rate_lp = "3/4";
                guard_interval = "1/32";
                transmission_mode = "2K";
        }
        service {
                id = 0x6840;
                pmt_pid = 0x0406;
                type = 0;
        }
        service {
                id = 0x6780;
                pmt_pid = 0x0402;
                type = 2;
                name = "BBC World Sv.";
                provider_name = "BBC";

...or this...

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<satellite>
<transponder type="T" freq="505833333">
</transponder>
<transponder type="T" freq="481833333">
<service id="22080" ca="0">
<description tag="0x48" type="1" provider_name="Sky" service_name="Sky
News" />
</service>
