OK.  Great catch.  Thanks, I'll update the driver for this (and I think 
there are multiple places where this has to change).  Thanks for tracking 
it down.

Yes, this is a problem that needs to be understood.  I don't have any 
traction on this yet because I haven't had a chance to chase it.  You can 
still use mplayer - but it won't be using the V4L API to operate so an API 
problem won't be noticed.  Another datapoint is that MythTV (still) works 
and it does use the V4L API.  So what need to figure out is what xawtv is 
being sensitive to that recently changed.
