This could be your problem.  You might also need to set "tuner="

See the video4linux BTTV docs in the kernel tree, and if nothing else
works, try all possible combinations of card and tuner options. (using
insmod is easier than editing modules.conf and rebooting each time)

bt848 and bt878 are effectively identical.
