Announcement: DVBCC Module, second public release

<p>
	DVB Caroussel generation software for LinuxTV
</p>

<p>
DSM-CC <a href="http://www.cselt.it/mpeg/documents/dsmcc/dsmcc.htm">
		(Digital Storage Media - Command and Control)</a> is a very recent
	  ISO/IEC standard developed for the delivery of multimedia broadband
	  services. The MPEG-2 ISO/IEC 13818-1 Standard for encoding/decoding of video
	  streams contains an early version of DSM-CC where a simple stream control
	  protocol for MPEG-2 Transport Streams is introduced. 
    
</p>

<p>
The DSM-CC standard is used by many broadcasters to transmit software
	  applications to set-top boxes. There is no free implementation of the
	  DSM-CC standard for the client-side available yet. However, for a start
	  you might be interested in the server side.
