The alternative solution to loading dvb-core with dvb_shutdown_timeout=0 
is to change mplayer to keep the "frontend" device open whilst you are 
reading the data from the card.

This can be accomplished by simply commenting out the two occurrences of 
"close(priv->fe_fd);" in libmpdemux/dvb_tune.c

The CVS version of dvbstream now implements this behaviour (as of about 
4 days ago).
