Comment 13 for bug 220857

ca111a -- I do not consider the uvcvideo issue to be a problem - rather, it is a matter of fact:

If you replace the videodev module by installing new v4l-dvb modules from linuxtv.org, then you will need to rebuild the uvcvideo module against the v4l-dvb headers, rather than the ubuntu source headers.

When (and if) uvcvideo ever gets merged into the v4l-dvb repository, then this issue will be a moot point for you.
