Ahh, under device menu, I have:
  AverMedia M156 / Medion 2819 Video4Linux(/dev/video)
  video4linux - XVideo-Port 69

Sorry for the wrong identifier, but the XVIDEO plugin is more 
interesting for me, since it allows for scaled fullscreen (without 
switching resolutions)..

I've attached outputs of kdetv (switching to FS and back) and v4l-info 
(Sorry Gerd, I know, you got them already, sorry..)

Dirk, could you point me to the method, where XVideo Scaling happens? 

BTW: I noticed a mysterious Xv port 70 "Matrox G-Series Backend 
Scaler", why cannot it be used?

Thanks,
Pete
