>Yes. rmmod or modprobe -r. ok, once I started removing the module before attempting to load it with a new tuner/card ID, it quickly became apparent what was going on. A little trial and error found me the right card ID and now everything's working beautifully. Thanks for the help >No, video[0-3] are *devices*. BTTV is *only* device 0 (video0). Each >device cna have multiple inputs, which can be set by applications >(inputs include tuner, composite, etc.). yes, now that I have it working I can see that you're right. I'm curious then what video1-3 are?

No, video[0-3] are *devices*. BTTV is *only* device 0 (video0).

Currently modprobe reads /etc/modules.conf, insmod doesn't. modprobe also preloads other needed modules (such as i2c-core/-algo-bit and videodev for bttv) by looking which symbols are missing for the module to load correctly and checking which modules provide these symbols. > I'm doing neither, they are loaded automatically (i see tuner related > entries in my modules.conf - apparently placed there automatically by > redhat).
