DVB-S/S2 PCI card. Similar to the [[Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-4000 | HVR-4000]] but without DVB-T or analogue TV features.
This now works with standard modules from the http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb

repository, but see the link below or [[Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-4000]] for getting the firmware. It is identified as "Hauppauge WinTV-HVR4000(Lite) DVB-S/S2".
Product page: http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/site/products/data_novahds2.html .

The card is supported in the stock Linux kernel since version 2.6.28, so ideally you should simply use
2.6.28 or later, and obtain and install the latest firmware as described here: [[Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-4000]].
The right modules should be loaded automatically on boot (check lsmod and dmesg output).
Then start [[Kaffeine]] 0.8.8 for example.

If you have to run an earlier kernel try the v4l-dvb repository at http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb, and see [[Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-4000]] or the link below for getting the latest firmware. It is identified as "Hauppauge WinTV-HVR4000(Lite) DVB-S/S2".

DVB-S/S2 PCI card. Similar to the HVR-4000 but without DVB-T or analogue TV features.

Product page: http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/site/products/data_novahds2.html .

The card is supported in the stock Linux kernel since version 2.6.28, so ideally you should simply use 2.6.28 or later, and obtain and install the latest firmware as described here: Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-4000. The right modules should be loaded automatically on boot (check lsmod and dmesg output). Then start Kaffeine 0.8.8 for example.

If you have to run an earlier kernel try the v4l-dvb repository at http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb, and see Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-4000 or the link below for getting the latest firmware. It is identified as "Hauppauge WinTV-HVR4000(Lite) DVB-S/S2".

Resources

  • An old ubuntuusers.de forum thread with how-to on page 3 in German (should be easily machine-translateable), which seems to work for some people. Uses driver code, which used to be in the linuxtv Hg repository, with some updates to that code back then so that the HD-S2 code works with newer kernels. Recognized as a "Hauppauge WinTV HVR-4000(Lite)". (Wonder why that code was removed.)

Sample kernel output

Note that this differs slightly from the HVR-4000 model in that there are no analogue sound inputs on the card. This results in the following line in the kernel log: tveeprom 0-0050: audio processor is None (idx 0)
