You can create a data file for your source if it's missing.
Go to ~/.kde/share/apps/kaffeine, you will find dirs dvb-s, dvb-c, dvb-t
These dirs contain data files. Create one (take an existing one as start 
point). Follow the naming scheme. When done, you are strongly encourage to 
submit that new file to linux-dvb_at_linuxtv.org

In the configuration dialog, you assign a "source" to a device (or several for 
diseqc). 
If you are on cable or terrestrial network, the source will probably not 
change.
If you have several lnb, all the sources are available for scanning.
