I totally overlooked that due to [ ]   Enable Video For Linux API 1 (DEPRECATED), thank you.

However I have some trouble getting mplayer/xawtv to work:

mplayer:

 WARNING: YOU ARE USING V4L DEMUXER WITH V4L2 DRIVERS!!!
 As the V4L1 compatibility layer is broken, this may not work.
 If you encounter any problems, use driver=v4l2 instead.
 Bugreports on driver=v4l with v4l2 drivers will be ignored.
