That was the hint i needed. :-)

After looking on another of my computers what device video0 was (81 0) i
created the same video0 and now it works.

I tought that only the "old" drivers/vdr used /dev/video0 ((nearly) 4
years ago when i first used vdr it used /dev/video0. Later the drivers
changed to the dvb/adapter<x>/... files so i thought that video0 was the
same(tm) as the /dev/video0)
