I use a Hauppauge WinTV (bt848 based) video capture card with FreeBSD and
following kernel config (3.1-R):

controller      smbus0          # System management bus
controller      iicbus0         # I2C bus support
controller      iicbb0          # I2C bit-banging code
device          bktr0           # Hauppage TV card (bt848 based)

fxtv from the ports/packages collection works fine for video capturing (as
well as vic for videoconferencing) but I don't know any video editing
software like e.g. Adobe Premiere for MacOS/MS-Windows.
