Thanks for the compliment :-)

The uvcvideo driver supports UVC devices only. I very much doubt that your 
device is UVC compatible (but please check http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/faq to 
make sure). Have you checked the drivers available in the 2.6.29 kernel ?

The Linux kernel includes drivers for many Connexant-based DVR/PVR devices. 
You should try them and, if they fail, contact the linux-media list for help.
