do you have a Fullfeatured card with MPEG decoder onboard (do you see a 
chip labeled with a big 'DSP' logo and the string av7110 or av7111 in 
the name)?

use a recent driver from CVS and the makedev.napi script in the 
DVB/driver directory. The video device /dev/dvb/adapter0/video is not 
intended as v4l device, you use it to control the MPEG video decoder.
