You have most probably been hit by this:
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/perl/mailarc/gforum.cgi?post=85748;search_string=could%20not%20open%20%2Fdev%2Fvideo%20probe;guest=1430245&t=search_engine#85748

As you're messages are very colorfull, but don't mention anything about
the version of MythTV, I can't be sure.

Be sure to do a 'make distclean;' and 'cvs up -fd;' if you have cvs.
