Ah, wasn't aware of this.
The v4l2-ctl -n command shows me what I have, which seems to be missing the dvb-s2 card.

Input   : 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 equate to the following.
Tuner 1, S-Video 1, Composite 1, S-Video 2 and Composite 2

 So, I need to switch between them somehow, in order to test my s-video input for example.
