I ran into the same stuff a few days ago. The problem is that you are 
probably compiling the in-kernel stuff (videodev, bttv) and the dvb 
stuff against different version of the header file videodev.h

I fixed this problem in the build-2.4 CVS a few days ago, now the 
videodev.h from the currently running kernel is used.

I'm using 2.4.23-pre8 which has the videodev changes already in, plus 
the bttv-snapshot you are currently using, too, plus a fresh CVS 
checkout of the dvb-kernel driver. Perhaps you should try to upgrage 
your kernel.

Additionally make sure that no stale videodev.h files are lying around, 
ie. in /user/include/linux. You can add a "#warning videodev.h from 
<foo>" to the top of each occurence of videodev.h, so you can track down 
which file gets actually included.
