well, i'm trying this very regularly, but v4l plugin doesn't work at all for 
me: 
i activate the plugin, but i still don't see any new device (only Xv ones)
then i deactive Xv plugin, and i'm able to select my /dev/video0 device, 
select source (television), but i don't see anything about encoding (i need 
secam), and then of course, i don't get any channels...
is there any hardcoded variable involved there ?
