when you specify card=113, i2c_hw=1 is assumed by newer changes in bttv 
as i can see. So you need not explicitly state i2c_hw=1, unless there 
have been changes to bttv again. Can't state that for sure, since bttv 
undergoes changes every now and then.

so that would mean you can pass arguments like bttv card=113 card=112, 
these will mean card0, card1 etc.
