DVB has the major number 212. As for the minor numbers, I'm not sure
how they are decided - in one machine I have:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ll /dev/dvb/adapter0/
total 0
crw-rw----  1 root root 212, 4 Nov 11 23:33 demux0
crw-rw----  1 root root 212, 5 Nov 11 23:33 dvr0
crw-rw----  1 root root 212, 3 Nov 11 23:33 frontend0
crw-rw----  1 root root 212, 7 Nov 11 23:33 net0
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ll /dev/dvb/adapter1/
total 0
crw-rw----  1 root root 212, 68 Nov 11 23:33 demux0
crw-rw----  1 root root 212, 69 Nov 11 23:33 dvr0
crw-rw----  1 root root 212, 67 Nov 11 23:33 frontend0
crw-rw----  1 root root 212, 71 Nov 11 23:33 net0

There is a rule for creating the individual device minor numbers
relative to each other (check http://dl.bytesex.org/misc/dvb-devices)
but as to which base number to use I don't know. I'd be tempted to
start from 0 and create the nodes using mknod  (like the numbering for
my adapter0 above), and then see if it works.
