On my machine I am running xawtv in corner of my screen in order to keep an eye
on the program and switch to my TV screen if it starts to become interesting.
When using Skype I want to use my webcam.
I run xawtv with the instruction to use video1 (xawtv -c /dev/video1) and keep
the Skype on video0.
In order to achieve that I have to give a "#modprobe bttv" before using xawtv.
I assume that there must an easier way to achieve that but did not find out the
howto.
Could somebody help me out?

Try
alias char-major-81-1 bttv
in /etc/modprobe.d/*-tv.conf

HTH,
