That shouldn't happen. If vdr doesn't open /dev/video it should be
possible to open it. I haven't tested it with vdr, but I am currently
running rtuxzap and just tested it with tuxview and there were no
problems.
Are you using the latest versions of the driver and vdr?

That is also possible, although I haven't tried it in a while.
