Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-5500

A hybrid DVB-T & DVB-S & DVB-S2 & DVB-C card from Hauppauge with a PCIe 1x interface.

It is almost identical to the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-4400 (difference is si2161 on HVR-4400 and si2165 on HVR-5500).

Not fully supported (May 2014). Patch from Zzam for si2165 chip, DVB-C works.

DVB-S/2 confirmed working on Ubuntu 14.04 with downloaded firmware.
