Look at pvrusb2.html, in the section about module options.  There's an 
option to specify the initial video standard.  You can use that to set 
PAL-N, however it needs to be a hex value at that point.  Jump into 
#pvrusb2 right now if you'd like me to try to elaborate further.

There's also a way to do this in sysfs: You need to echo "+PAL-N" into 
ctl_video_standard_mask_available/cur_val; that will tell the driver to 
allow PAL-N as a choice.  Once you've done that then you can set PAL-N in 
ctl_video_standard/cur_val and hopefully it should work.

Also, please tell me the exact model of device you have (what's on the 
white sticker).  I'll modify the driver to permit PAL-N if it sees your 
combination of allowed modes.  I suspect tveeprom isn't reporting 
everything that is possible for a given device.  For example with 
NTSC/NTSC-J devices (i.e. my device), tveeprom only report NTSC-M being 
available (not the Japanese variant) so I modified the driver to add 
NTSC-Mj to the list of valid choices if tveeprom report NTSC-M as 
available.
