Please try with mplayer for example:
mplayer -tv driver=v4l2:width=320:height=240:norm=SECAM:outfmt=yuy2:channels=21-F2 tv://
Customize the norm, and channel to your needs.
vlc should work with a line like this:
vlc v4l2:///dev/video0:width=320:height=240:standard=PAL:input=2
this for looking at the S-video input.
