bttv.cards.c "tuner=0"  !=  insmod bttv tuner=0
bttv.cards.c "tuner_type=5 == insmod bttv tuner=5
So the default is tuner=5 (Philips PAL).

Gerd, this name coincidence is misleading, how about renaming
tuner -> tuner_pos && tuner_type-> tuner in bttv-cards.c ?

Alecs, try "insmod bttv card=78 tuner=2" if you live in NTSC land.

Remove the Jetway sticker to determine the exact tuner model.
