Receiving german tv by the web is only allowed and possible in Germany. It's 
only possible in other countries in using a VPN and I have no VPN.

So be sure vlc does not receive tv by the web.

I use a playlist you can dowload at localhost:22000, it contains entries like

#EXTINF:-1 tvg-logo="http://sundtek.de/picons/?g=3sat",3sat
#EXTVLCOPT:network-caching=1000
http://localhost:22000/stream/3sat

#EXTINF:-1 tvg-logo="http://sundtek.de/picons/?g=ARD%2Dalpha",ARD-alpha
#EXTVLCOPT:network-caching=1000
http://localhost:22000/stream/ARD%2Dalpha

So vlc cannot help me. Even when I use "Media -Open capture device" and tv 
works, the LNB fields in advanced options are empty.
