The only supported option with freevo-1 is to dedicate one of the two
tuners for recording and the other for playing, this should work fine
with DVB cards, though I don't have either DVB or a DVB card. But other
people on the list have.
If I'm not mistaken, DVB cards write mpeg files so I think you don't
need to use mencoder to capture the data stream. Search the wiki for DVB
and you may come up with something.
