Public bug reported:

See: http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-dev-eng/2008-March/056738.html
Short info:
"- if channels.conf is not found with get_path(), try to load the system wide 
one."

"I noticed that the dvb code looks for channels.conf only using get_path().
I'd like it to be able to also look for a system wide channels.conf
file in MPLAYER_CONFDIR.
This way, for an embedded system like geexbox, we can put all *.conf
in /etc/mplayer and specify --confdir=/etc/mplayer when compiling."

- It's also handy when you have a custom daemon that launches mplayer
with a system call, I't won't be able to read any channels.conf file
because it has no shell/home


The patch is already in the svn but it's not in the ubuntu repository yet.

** Affects: mplayer (Ubuntu)
