The bttv driver, bktr, hasn't had any major updates for over 2 years now, and so doesn't support the newer cards or tuners. Even Linux struggles to use my Pinnacle PCTV Pro card (bt878, tda9887) with the newest drivers. I've seen quite a few posts about TV cards recently, maybe we need a project to either port bttv/v4l2 from Linux, or start a new project to properly support tv cards in FreeBSD?
