Red-Button

1. I've only tested this with DVB-T in the UK (ie FreeView channels)

2. I've just upgraded my system from 2.4.25 to 2.6.13 and the frontend device
seems to close a lot quicker than before. So you need to run rb-download 
immediately after dvbtune, ie

dvbtune -f 722166667 && ./rb-download

rather than as two separate commands

3. If you don't have a very recent version of the DVB drivers, you need to
make sure this patch is applied:

http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2005-September/004914.html

otherwise it will miss large modules that follow very short ones

here's a copy of the patch, apply it to the files in
/usr/src/linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/
