I personally use
tuner type=5
bttv card=8
but I have a card different from yours (a bt848 based one).
I think you'll either have to google for your exact card and see what
people suggest or simply try all the possibilities. You can see the list
in linuxkernelsource/Documentation/video4linux/bttv/CARDLIST (probably
also googleable if you do not have kernel sources on your machine).

Good luck,
