I believe TV Vlaanderen uses SECA - Any problems with that one?

Oh, talking about multiple streams, what exactly describes a 
transponder? For example, when I use dvbstream to tunnel a DVB signal 
into VLC I can select a few other channels (6-7, on some BBC streams 
even 7-8 or more) from the "navigation" menu, is this the content of a 
transponder? (Because that would mean there are on average about 6-7 
channels on one transponder)
Or is it actually more?

Btw, what MythTV revision were you using again? (I badly want to get 
MythTV to work!)
