md5sum -b hcw88bda.sys 3f685a2ca6d1dae35b10c06f3a538d82 *hcw88bda.sys
The firmware will be reported as
sudo dmesg|grep cx cx24116_load_firmware: FW version 1.26.90.0
Mythbuntu 9.04 users
Attention Mythbuntu 9.04 users: This card should actually work with this version of Mythbuntu out of the box. However, the installed firmware seems to be buggy so it is necessary to install the Firmware v1.20.79.0 following the steps above.
Drivers
Ubuntu Hardy users should read the note about the sound driver (cx88_alsa) below.
Kernel / v4l-dvb driver
There is a complete driver for this card in the Linux kernel since version 2.6.28. It supports DVB-T, DVB-S/S2, analogue TV, A/V capture and FM radio. If you have the kernel 2.6.28 (or later) you do not need to install a driver yourself.
For developers, or those who need to use a kernel earlier than 2.6.28, a development version of the driver is available in the v4l-dvb repository of the LinuxTV project (the ususal route to merging improvements into the kernel).
hg clone http://hg.kewl.org/pub/v4l-dvb-20100517/ cd v4l-dvb-20100517 make make install reboot
Multiple frontends are supported: DVB-S/S2 and DVB-T appear as /dev/dvb/adapterN/frontend0 and /dev/dvb/adapterN/frontend1 respectively.
Due to a hardware limitation, the two frontends cannot be used simultaneously. However they can be used sequentially within the same application. The driver handles the mutual exclusion appropriately.
DVB-T and DVB-S are supported within API v3.2 (or the new API v5.0) and so it is compatible with current applications. DVB-S2 is accessed through API v5.0, also known as S2API, which was released in kernel 2.6.28.
Command-line scanning for channels can be done with scan-s2. Tuning DVB-S and DVB-S2 channels can be done with szap-s2 :
hg clone http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/scan-s2 hg clone http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/szap-s2
Kaffeine handles multiple frontends well without modification -- they appear in the DVB settings as "DVB Device 0:0" (=/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0, i.e. DVB-S/S2) and "DVB Device 0:1" (=/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend1, i.e. DVB-T). Both devices can be configured and tuned in the application, and Kaffeine will switch to the correct one each time you change the channel. DiSEqC 1.2 is supported too. Kaffeine will display HDTV delivered over DVB-S2 or DVB-S, e.g. BBC HD, see Kaffeine.
See the section below on how to use this card with MythTV.

Sound driver
Alsa driver: cx88_alsa.
To make sure the sound card in the HVR-4000 does not grab card index 0 (instead of your motherboard or discrete sound card) add the following to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base (or wherever your distro sets alsa kernel module options):
# Prevent abnormal drivers from grabbing index 0 options cx88_alsa index=-2
Note: the Ubuntu Hardy kernel (2.6.24) has a separate Ubuntu version of the cx88_alsa module which causes problems if you compile your own drivers (modprobe cx88_alsa gives 'cx88_alsa: disagrees about version of symbol' errors). Upgrade the kernel to one which uses a stock cx88_alsa module and then compile and install the HVR4000 driver. See http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu.
Usage with MythTV
MythTV v0.22 onwards supports multiple frontends and works fine. UPDATE: DVB-T has no channel search under Broadcast with h264/HE-AAC. Scan resulting in:
Signal Strength: 99%, signal/noise: 49%
All channel scans end up with "Timed out, no signal". Seems to be something broken in MythTV for this function.
A bug since kernel 3.3.8 (according to http://www.sat4all.com/forums/topic/324586-iemand-sasc-ng-al-werkend-met-32-kernels/page__st__20#entry2123480) triggers a race condition that makes MythTV unable to get a lock (http://code.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/10830).
Most easily worked around by running 'femon -H -aX' (where X is the adapter number used) for scanning to help MythTV get a lock. Confirmed to work on Kubuntu 12.10 running MythTV 0.26-patches with kernel 3.5. Installation of firmware still required.
Audio/Video capture
Scan for channels (UK):
mplayer -v tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:device=/dev/video0:chanlist=europe-west:normid=4:alsa:adevice=hw.1:immediatemode=0 -tvscan autostart:period=2.0:threshold=20
Play channel (BBC1 WOOLWICH UK):
mplayer -v tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:device=/dev/video0:chanlist=europe-west:normid=4:alsa:adevice=hw.1:immediatemode=0:freq=759.25
Capture channel (BBC1 WOOLWICH UK):
mencoder -fps 50 -ofps 50 -vf harddup,softskip,yadif=1 tv:// -tv channel=57:driver=v4l2:device=/dev/video0:normid=4:input=0:alsa:adevice=hw.1,0:audiorate=32000:width=768:height=576 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:autoaspect:vbitrate=512 -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr:preset=96 -endpos 60 -o test.avi
Analogue TV and Teletext Receiver
Does anyone have any info about Linux support?
Another way is to use tvtime (http://tvtime.sourceforge.net/) which is available in many distros.
S-Video input
Play the video
mplayer -rawaudio rate=48000 tv:// -tv norm=PAL-BG:input=2:alsa=1:adevice=hw.1:audiorate=48000:immediatemode=0:amode=1
This will play the video coming in input=2 (S-Video) (input=1 will be the Composite1 input), use alsa for the audio on device hw:1.
Record the video
mencoder -fps 50 -ofps 50 -vf harddup,softskip,yadif=1 tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:device=/dev/video0:norm=PAL-BG:input=2:alsa:adevice=hw.1,0:audiorate=48000:width=768:height=576 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:autoaspect:vbitrate=512 -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr:preset=96 -endpos 60 -o test.avi
FM Radio Receiver
The Latest Drivers have radio support. See here for radio listening applications http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Radio_Listening_Applications.
Example test. First start playing the ALSA sound:
arecord -D hw:1,0 -f dat | aplay &
and then tune with fm-tools:
fm -T forever 99.3
or with radio (which can have preset radio stations):
radio -c /dev/radio0
Change to mono mode
v4l2-ctl -d /dev/radio0 -t mono
Go back to stereo mode
v4l2-ctl -d /dev/radio0 -t stereo
Remote Control Support
When you have installed the drivers check dmesg/logs and you'll find a line like:
input: CX88 IR (Hauppauge WinTV-HVR4000 as /class/input/inputX
You can run lirc for example like: lircd --driver=dev/input --device=/dev/input/eventX (replace X with what it finds in the dmesg)
Debian: edit /etc/lirc/hardware.conf DRIVER="dev/input" DEVICE="/dev/input/eventX"
/etc/lirc/lircd.conf (Works)
