This got added to the FreeBSD ports collection today:

http://www.freshports.org/multimedia/cx88/

Quote:
cx88 provides drivers for TV/radio capture cards based on
the Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 series of chips. This port
includes the cx88 kernel drivers as well as a simple app
for HDTV capture. It requires multimedia/libtuner for
channel selection and peripheral configuration.
Not related to the Video for BSD project btw ... (This guy seems to produce less noise and more code).

I'd be interested in knowing how well it works ... I have a few (old) TV tuner cards, maybe one of them uses this chip ...
