You don't need dvbtune, only dvbstream

./dvbstream -f 657833 .... -o 6210 | ts2es 6210 | mpg123 -

will work.

Change ... with the other tuning parameters, if needed: inversion, bandwidth, modulation, coderate, 
guard interval and hyerarchy; all of them have default values, but not always they are
correct for every transmitter.

dvbstream -h will give you a list of possible options.
