And I'll let a driver guru take this piece of your message -- any thoughts
Amancio?  (Ccing A.Hasty, and -multimedia in case others there have clues).

Donald Burr:
 |And FreeBSD does recognize it [Donald's Bt848-based "TV Capturer" card]:
 |
 |bktr0 <BrookTree 848> rev 18 int a irq 10 on pci0:10:0
 |Miro TV, Temic NTSC tuner.
...
 |occasionally, the card gets really confused, and it thinks that it's a
 |PAL card instead of an NTSC card:
 |
 |bktr0 <BrookTree 848> rev 18 int a irq 10 on pci0:10:0
 |Miro TV, Philips PAL I tuner.
 |
 |Naturally, this means that I can't view anything (being in the USA, our
 |cable systems are NTSC).  Switching modes in the FXTV program does *not*
 |work.
 |
 |Any ideas?  Please e-mail if possible.  Thanks!
...
 |Here, in brief, are the details of my system:
 |
 |Pentium 133, motherboard based on VIA VP 586 Apollo chipset, Creative Labs
 |Graphics Blaster MA202 with 2 MB VRAM (Cirrus Logic CL-GD5446).  Other
 |cards in system include Adaptec AHA-2940AU PCI SCSI controller, ISA NE-2000
 |ethernet clone, USR Sportster 56K modem, Sound Blaster ViBRA16C PnP sound
 |card.
