Yep, i used it extensively with a
bktr0 at pci0 dev 4 function 0 "Brooktree BT848" rev 0x12: ivec 0x7d8
using mplayer -tv device=/dev/bktr0:driver=bsdbt848:input=1,audioid=1 tv://
to watch what was sent on composite input of the card. worked really
nice at that point... to bad bktr is only i386/amd64, i'd have like to
make it work on sparc64 (didnt test macppc yet).
