This should work automatically, if you have a DVB-s card. If you have a Nova card, you can't use /dev/video because the card has no MPEG decoder. You'd need a software decoder. It could also be that you do not have the node /dev/video. In that case you need to create it with "mknod /dev/video c 81 0". Another reason could be that there is another card or USB device that uses /dev/video in that case the DVB card would use the next available device, i.e. /dev/video1. But if you have another card using /dev/video it should be possible to get a picture from that device. That is all that comes to mind right now. For more help you should have given more information about your system.
