I have this card too. It's not auto detected.
Add these to /etc/modprobe.conf, save and reboot.
options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1
alias char-major-81 bttv
options bttv card=78 tuner=5 radio=1 pll=1 gbuffers=16 bttv_gpio=0 bttv_debug=0

You have to change the tuner number though to match your country's tv system. Check your tuner number in this list (http://lxr.linux.no/source/Documentation/video4linux/CARDLIST.tuner)
(it's not the best link that I could found, but it 'll do for the tuner type)

If I do something I write what is going on after modyfications.

Hello,
I have the same card and when I run tvtime I take that

Running tvtime 1.0.1.
Reading configuration from /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml
Reading configuration from /root/.tvtime/tvtime.xml
xvoutput: No XVIDEO port found which supports YUY2 images.

*** tvtime requires hardware YUY2 overlay support from your video card
*** driver. If you are using an older NVIDIA card (TNT2), then
*** this capability is only available with their binary drivers.
*** For some ATI cards, this feature may be found in the experimental
*** GATOS drivers: http://gatos.souceforge.net/
*** If unsure, please check with your distribution to see if your
*** X driver supports hardware overlay surfaces.

Can anyone help?
thanks!!!
