This card works a little different than the others. The inputs are not bound to any spacific bt878 chip but go through a crosspoint video switch. The way this works is you have inputs (channles) 0-15 and you can assign them to any of the video devices (bt878 chips /dev/video 0-3)
/dev/video0 (3) assigns composit input 3 to the first device
/dev/video1 (0) assigns composit input 0 to the second device etc... More information can be obtained at linuxtv.org

Add a single card

modprobe bttv gbuffers=16 card=133,132,133,133
or
edit your modprobe.conf to include
options bttv gbuffers=16 card=133,132,133,133
requires a 2.6.12 kernel but fully supported in a 2.6.13
I tried and failed on the 2.6.12 but succeeded on the 2.6.13
