What you need to do is scan your i2c bus. Get the sensors-detect script
that comes with lm_sensors, and run it. It should tell you which devices
are available on your system. It will probably not identify your video
decode chip, because it's mainly aimed at sensor chips, but at least
it'll tell you at which address the chips were found (you can also use
i2cdetect to obtain the same information).
