hi all :)
trying to get this 8 channel dvr card to work in linux, but I get this:

Board is currently unknown. You might try to use the card=<nr>
saa7134: insmod option to specify which board do you have, but this is
saa7134: somewhat risky, as might damage your card. It is better to ask
saa7134: for support at linux-media@vger.kernel.org.

so here I am. I have not tried to set the card myself as I don't know what number to use. Was hoping I could get some help here to get it working. Some info I collected so far can be found here http://pastebin.ca/2430477 any ideas what I might try next or what card to specify?
thank you in advance for any help.

ok, thanks to theBear on IRC i managed to get it working with mplayer, so in case someone in the future runs into the same problem i hope they will find my post.
I connected a camera to one cable and tried all inputs and video devices:
mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:device=/dev/video0:input=0

...
mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:device=/dev/video7:input=8


most resulting videos were just black, but there were also some green and some grey lines ones, then i remembered another post, namely:
http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/Videocards_with_Philips_saa7134_chipset) 
So this made me add to my modprobe and rebooted:

alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 saa7134
options saa7134 card=33,33,33,33


then tried the mplayer command again and it worked!!! :)

As long as you found a card number that works, it shouldn't matter. BTW, do
you have its card info, like manufacturer, Model number, picture, ..., etc.?
What's your app? If you only use it for video surveillance and don't need
stereo audio, you may use a low cost capture card, like Sensoray Model 812
(http://www.sensoray.com/products/812.htm) for your application.

Best,
