Linux Mint 17.2 - Zoneminder issue (SOLVED)

Hi, just came back to Zoneminder after a spell away.

Trying to set this up and for some reason I have NO devices for Video, ie: in /dev/ I dont have any video0, video1, video2 etc etc.

I can see my card under lspci -v, part of the output is below,

05:0d.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture (rev 11)
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 3
Memory at d8004000 (32-bit, prefetchable)
Capabilities: <access denied>

05:0e.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capture (rev 11)
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 19

05:0f.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capture (rev 11)

Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11

Capabilities: <access denied>


This is in my modprobe.conf file:

options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1
options bttv gbuffers=16 card=102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102 radio=0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 tuner=4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4 chroma_agc=1 combfilter=2 full_luma_range=1 coring=1 autoload=0

Any help much appreciated :D

If you type lsmod can you see that the modules (bttv and i2c-algo-bit) have loaded ?
