I have two of them: a Plus card with composite video-in and an FM card with an FM tuner.

I have no experience whatsoever using the tuner portions of the cards, but I am successfully using three bktr-based cards (non-Hauppauge) in a FreeBSD 6.2 machine. bktr0: <BrookTree 878> mem 0xee000000-0xee000fff irq 11 at device 8.0 on pci0 bktr0: [GIANT-LOCKED] bktr0: MT2032: Companycode=3c3c Part=3c Revision=3c bktr0: MT2032 not found or unknown type bktr0: Pinnacle/Miro TV, Philips NTSC tuner. bktr1: <BrookTree 878> mem 0xee002000-0xee002fff irq 5 at device 9.0 on pci0 bktr1: [GIANT-LOCKED] bktr1: Warning - card vendor 0x1554 (model 0x4011) unknown. bktr1: Pinnacle/Miro TV, Temic PAL I tuner. bktr2: <BrookTree 848> mem 0xee004000-0xee004fff irq 10 at device 11.0 on pci0 bktr2: [GIANT-LOCKED] bktr2: STB TV/PCI, Temic NTSC tuner, dbx stereo. They all work fine for doing simultaneous video capture. I'm using them with motion (multimedia/motion) for surveillance.
