I can't get VDR working on mine :-(

The DVB drivers installed the devices under /dev/dvb/*, and I think VDR
wants /dev/ost

I'm guessing dvbstream's stream is different to VDR's - but I can't
compare so not sure.

It might be multicast isn't working on XP, but I'm pretty sure I tweaked
the registry right.  The utility rtpdump I found doesn't connect though.

I hate not knowing which part isn't working :-)

Thanks,
Andy.
