A Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2250

The Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2250 is an ATSC PCIe card from Hauppauge. Support for its digital side was added to Hg in September 2009.

Overview/features

  • Low-profile PCI Express (PCIe) ×1 board
  • Two analog tuners, each with their own hardware MPEG-2 encoders
  • Two digital TV receivers for ATSC or clear QAM

Components used

REV C1F1

  • NXP SAA7164E/3
  • Pair of Conexant CX24228-21Z demodulators
  • Samsung 819 K4H561638H-UCCC

REV C2F2

REV C3F2

  • NXP SAA7164E/3
  • Samsung 846 - K4H561638J-LCCC - H56162YI369GDU
  • Pair of Conexant CX24228-21Z - NI3W4H - 0811 KR
  • 0916 - 3506 - EFE - N8578
  • 24C3265I- 408(4)9E - not sure on the (4)
  • Pair of LD1117 - C822

REV C4F2

  • Trident SAA7164E/3 (P2A988.00 02 / ESD11252)
  • Samsung S5H1411X01-Y0 / N3511ND / H1103 (Two of these)
  • Presumed pair of: NXP TDA1827 1HDC2 / GT1049 03 / TSD10501 (no confidence in last line, did not remove EMI shield)
  • 54 MHz and 24.690 MHz oscillators (two of the latter, seems to be for the Samsung chips), there is a third oscillator under the EMI shield that was not viewed
  • ESMT M13S2561616A- 5T / ASK1PO35E 1052
  • Linear Technology (LT) 1120 / 3506 / EFE N9096 / e3 (last presumably a date/lot/factory code)
  • ATMEL1040 / TINY13A / Δ SSU (on reverse side of PCB)

Making it work

Digital support

In September 2009, Steven Toth at kernellabs submitted code to the linux kernel mailing list that adds support for the NXP Saa7164 PCIe A/V bridge used by the Hauppauge HVR-2250 card. See Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2200. Note that the upstream driver support is limited to DVB-T / ATSC / QAM digital TV only.

Firmware needed for current cards is: 

wget http://www.steventoth.net/linux/hvr22xx/22xxdrv_27086.zip
wget http://www.steventoth.net/linux/hvr22xx/HVR-12x0-14x0-17x0_1_25_25271_WHQL.zip
wget http://www.steventoth.net/linux/hvr22xx/extract.sh

sh extract.sh
cp *fw /lib/firmware
# for some linux distros, might need the following line instead of the above
cp *fw /lib/firmware/`uname -r`

Installing this firmware is all that is needed.

For systems based on Ubuntu 16.04 or later, after installing the Steven Toth firmware, it may also be necessary to:

1. Create the file, /etc/modprobe.d/options, with this in the first line: 

options saa7164 card=8

2. Reboot.

Now your MythTV Backend Setup should see all of your Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2250 adapters. (Many thanks to dwsideri at https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2400652 for sharing this information.)


Analog support

Experimental analog support was released by KernelLabs on July 31, 2010. See here for more details related to installing analog support: KernelLabs saa7164 analog announcement

Development continues at http://www.steventoth.net/blog/products/hvr-2250/

Firmware

The Windows driver and Linux firmware extraction scripts are up on http://www.steventoth.net/linux/hvr22xx

Drivers

Drivers were merged into the kernel in Linux 2.6.32.
