I didn't check every version from bttv released in the last 5 years, but this
is from linux-2.2.20 kernel driver:
case VIDIOCGTUNER:
{
struct video_tuner v;
if(copy_from_user(&v,arg,sizeof(v))!=0)
return -EFAULT;
if(v.tuner||btv->channel) /* Only tuner 0 */
return -EINVAL;
See that if(v.tuner||btv->channel)? You can only query the tuner if you
have channel 0 selected as input. So in this case, you're the one who's
wrong.
