In general, only usb devices work with webcamd. AFAIK, no PCI devices work with webcamd. In general, very few non-usb DVB devices has FreeBSD drivers. I have a TerraTec Cinergy 1200 DVB-C[1], it didn't have any FreeBSD driver long agao when I tested it, and I haven't seen any driver after that either. Another card I have is the TechoTrend Premium C-2300 Hybrid[2], also with no FreeBSD driver, AFAIK. This isn't meant as a complaint, it is just the way things are. Too few eyes and hands I guess.
