Got bktr capturing to work!
In command line 'tvstd' MUST be specified
before '-f bktr' or else it gets ignored.

Dumps VHS stream into raw data for later processing:
BKTR_DEV=0 ffmpeg -y -tvstd pal -r 25 -s 768x576 -deinterlace -isync \
-f bktr -i /dev/bktr0 -f audio_device -i /dev/audio \
-acodec pcm_s16le -s 768x576 -vcodec rawvideo /data/raw.avi
