If you don't mind rebuilding the rpm, it's not that hard. You need to do
the following steps:

1) Get the vlc source rpm you want to use, either the official one or
the one at http://dag.wieers.com/packages/videolan-client/ which is
http://dag.wieers.com/packages/videolan-client/videolan-client-0.8.1-3.rf.src.rpm

2) You really want to build RPMS as a user, so create a file called
'.rpmmacros' with an entry like
%_topdir /home/spindler/Work/redhat
You should replace the directory with the one you want to store your
RPMs.

2.5) Setup directory structure inside redhat
./SOURCES
./SPECS
./RPMS
./RPMS/i386 (replace with your architecture)
./RPMS/noarch
./BUILD
./SRPMS

3) Install the src.rpm with rpm -ivh videolan...src.rpm. This will place
the spec file and sources somewhere below %_topdir

4) Go to the spec file in %_topdir/SPECS and add the dvb configuring
option below %configure

5) Build rpm with 
rpmbuild -bb videolan-client.spec

6) If it doesn't fail, an rpm is stored in %_topdir/RPMS/{arch}/, just
read the output of rpmbuild

Good luck!
Bye,
Torsten
