Users / WinTV HVR-1950 USB2
« on: February 25, 2009, 01:22:57 am »
BACKGROUND
I read someone was able to get the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1950 external USB2 analog and digital tuner working with MythTV and LMCE. I believe they got it working with the existing PVR-USB2 drivers. I have read all the problems with internal PCI/PCIe cards and lack of support for new chipsets, etc. like the HVR-2250. It seems like it is easier to support if the interface is USB and all that changed is messages.
QUESTIONS
Is the HVR-1950 planned for official support soon?
Is there anything that I can do to help test/develop since I have the hardware?
