I also tried to do this, problem is that gnome-dvb-daemon runs on a
headless machine here and only seems to bind to localhost, 

jens nas:~$ lsof -n -i tcp | grep dvb
gnome-dvb 7482 jens   11u  IPv4 1247477      0t0  TCP 127.0.1.1:8554
(LISTEN)

so I tried with X11 forwarding, but I cannot connect to localhost either
(with gst-launch playbin2 uri=rtsp://localhost/1/516).

jens nas:~$ LANG=C gst-launch-0.10 playbin2 uri=rtsp://127.0.0.1/1/516
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
ERROR: Pipeline doesn't want to pause.

Currently I also can't check in rygel since master seems to have some
regression in the external handling.
