Sorry, I wasn't clear in the previous email; I did try the card= option anyway. I wrote a looping script and tested first 70 card= options, and none worked properly for streaming capture. Some did show different behavior though. I might try the remaining 50 later today.
I did notice one strange thing though; the card= option is only applied to the first bttv card. All remaining cards in the system are still autodetected (which ends up assuming card=0 in my case). Not sure if this is the intended behavior or not, since someone really could run two different bttv cards in the same system.
