One could use xawtv that has xv (I use it also with an Hauppauge WinTV)
and my fullscreen is 1600x1200 which is very convenient because I don't
have to change resolution for fullscreen ;-)

I have never tried to run xawtv without my WinTV card...

I hope that kvdr will sooner or later support it ;-)
