[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] dvb input fails after a couple of seconds

[Nico]

Hi,
I posted something similar in mplayer-dvb  one month ago and asked for 
feedback, but no one seems to have realized.
The patch works well for me and includes additional code that fixes 
other minor bugs.
I've just reposted it here (-dev-eng).

Thanks,
    Nico
