I was able to scan using the "media_build" install method described 
above but when trying to watch a free channel the image and sound was 
stuttering severly. I have tried both MythTV and mplayer with similar 
results.

I created the channel list for mplayer with:

lintv ~ # dvbscan -x0 -fc /usr/share/dvb/dvb-c/no-Oslo-Get -o zap > 
.mplayer/channels.conf

And, for example,  I get this output from mplayer plus a very (blocky) 
stuttering image and sound:

lin-tv ~ # mplayer dvb://1@"TV8 Oslo" -ao jack

MPlayer SVN-r33094-4.5.3 (C) 2000-2011 MPlayer Team
mplayer: could not connect to socket
mplayer: No such file or directory
