Ok . Video4linux is an API rather than anything else and is using the bttv
code ported to a common API with other modules and arranged to be a bit
more secure (until I've sorted hacking the Xserver this will never be
absolutely perfect).
The video4linux bt848 code is bttv 0.4.x rewrapped. The PMS code is taken
from the PMS-Grabber application and the quickcam support from libqcam (as
per the credits in all the source files). The non video4linux introduced
bugs and also improvements in the original stuff will get folded into
the video4linux versions too
