In my sources.list have:

deb http://debian-multimedia.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/debian-multimedia/
etch main
deb-src http://debian-multimedia.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/debian-multimedia/
etch main

You then need to do:

apt-get install debian-multimedia-keyring
apt-get update

You should have no problems after that.
