Ok, I'm responding to myself, but this could help some future users ;)
The plugin is now working. The sound goes out of the DVB card with a 
rather good lipsync (I had some troubles to understand the cabling 
between the output of the analog TV card that has to be in the Line IN 
of PC's soundcard). Now, I have some troubles with the settings.
I'm using Andreas's predefined settings on my Athlon 1800Mhz but the 
video gets choppy after some seconds and it is barely viewable even if 
CPU usage is around 20%.
I still have to work on it to make my wife happy ;)
I know I have to provide traces. I will do that in the next day or so.

Olivier.
