Unfortunately no, you're seeing what I've been seeing.

Yeah, there's no problem loading the planb driver, it's just that the v4l
stuff can do nothing with it.

If you can get around this one:
ioctl: VIDIOCSCHAN(0,Composite,flags=0x0,type=2,norm=3): Invalid argument
You're a saint. Until you can get around that you won't have any joy.
According to v4l the problem lies in the driver (and seeing as v4l works
with a lot of other cards, it's the driver). A fair bit of hacking on the
driver did not result in any improvement.
