Something like this would do the same thing:

enabled bktr &&         video_grab_format=bktr ||
enabled video4linux2 && video_grab_format=video4linux2 ||
                        video_grab_format=video4linux

That said, I don't like the design of the grabbing code at all.  IMHO it would
be much cleaner to simply run ffmpeg -f v4l2 -i /dev/video0 or whatever,
dropping the whole concept of a default grabbing device used if no input is
specified.
