Hi Andrew,

FYI:
I got /dev/video1 working with kernel 2.4.20 and the latest driver 
(saa7134-20030822.tar.gz).
Of course, I had to work around pci_name and video_device_alloc/release that's 
missing in 2.4.20.
I had to modprobe saa6752hs after modprobe saa7134 since it was not loaded 
with it.
I ran mplayer directly on the video1 device and got video but no audio and an 
awful lot of PAT with invalid CRC32. Don't know if you have any use of this 
but...

Is it possible to turn of PAT and PMT generation in the driver?
