Data Anyone using NetBSD pkgsrc on FreeBSD?

I confess, I'm getting a hair frustrated with the FreeBSD ports system. Is there a reasonably headache-free way of migrating all my installed apps to pkgsrc? Is it advisable or not? Or should I just change my systems over to NetBSD? Or stop worrying an learn to love FBSD ports?

NAME
auvitek -- Auvitek AU0828 video capture device driver SYNOPSIS
auvitek* at uhub? dtv* at dtvbus? video* at videobus? uaudio* at auvitek? audio* at uaudio? DESCRIPTION
The auvitek driver provides support for USB video capture devices based on the Auvitek AU0828 bridge. This hybrid analog/digital device requires a hi-speed USB host controller (such as ehci(4)) to function properly. For auvitek devices with analog audio capture interfaces, the uaudio(4) device driver provides access to the audio stream. Application soft- ware can find a video(4) device's audio(4) device by comparing the VIDIOC_QUERYCAP bus_info field with the audio device's AUDIO_GETDEV config field. The following cards are supported by the auvitek driver: Device Decoder Tuner Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-850 au8522(4) xc5k(4) Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-950Q au8522(4) xc5k(4) Cards with an XC5000 tuner require the firmware provided by the pkgsrc/sysutils/xc5k-firmware package to function properly.
