I have a bktr(4) card with an onboard NTSC tuner. I can't control the bktr(4) setup channel and broadcast type because there is no radio(4) device attached, probably? because the auto-detect of the tuner failed? My plan is to pull the card, and verify what tuner is on it. Then build a new kernel based on GENERIC adding option BKTR_OVERRIDE_TUNER and possibly option BKTR_OVERRIDE_CARD to see if I can get a radio(4) device attached.
As previously mentioned, I never had to go that far and under ideal circumstances it should just autodetect and attach; however, that the options exist hints that the developer(s) thought the autodetection routine was less than perfect. IMHO, it's a bit of a reach, but I would still make the attempt in a reversed situation. I can't help you much with video capture from a shell.
