Here's a snippet from my current kernel .config:

#
# Multimedia devices
#
# CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV is not set

video_dev seems to activate the v4l API in the kernel, which then gives
you access to mutlimedia input devices.  IIRC - I think you do need to
specify this option to get access to the planb device, as well as other
video input hardware...
