[streaming] Help ! DVB input module

[Manu Abraham]

Hi,
	I'm using VLS-0.5.4 alongwith the associated libraries and libdvb-0.5.0. Is 
it possible for VLS to demux from the currently tuned transponder, rather 
than searching for the transponder or satellite (through a command line 
switch maybe can be added to the dvbinput module and hence to VLS ? ) ?

	As per Benjamin's advice i generated dvbrc from satscan. (libdvb-0.5.3 where 
satscan -s option does not tune and lists on the currently tuned 
transponder.) 

	"SatcoDX does not work for me as the channels and frequencies listed in 
SatcoDX lists are totally different and they keep changing all the time in 
this region !!!!!. It is therefore hapless that a dependency with the SatcoDX 
and satscan !!!!!!!" One cannot keep going to SatcoDX twice a week and 
download the new file and generate a dvbrc.

	What works out at least is to take the updated values from some place like 
http://lyngsat.com and put in the values manually or by using some app like 
scan.
