Yes, that is right. The only video devices that work with BSD (that I know about) are bktr devices and some usb webcams.

The main lack is v4l support, which is what linux uses to support the wide range of video devices. there are some efforts to produce videoBSD, but I believe they have stalled.

So, sorry, there are no USB video capture devices available for FreeBSD. I do not know about the other BSDs, but suggest that you are stuck with linux.
