Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-4000
A hybrid DVB-S/DVB-S2/DVB-T/Analog/FM Radio PCI card from Hauppauge.
It is currently not supported under Linux. However, experimental support for some of the device's features is available (see below for details).

Making it Work
Firmware
One could use the script provided from wget-fw.sh to fetch the firmware for us.
Basically what it does is :
1) fetch an archive : "wget ftp://167.206.143.11/outgoing/Oxford/88x_2_119_25023_WHQL.zip"
2) decompress what's needed : "unzip -jo 88x_2_119_25023_WHQL.zip Driver88/hcw88bda.sys"
3) put the firmware at the right place : "dd if=hcw88bda.sys of=/lib/firwmare/dvb-fe-cx24116.fw skip=81768 bs=1 count=32522"
Debian: Place file in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/
Drivers
There are currently no in kernel drivers for this card.
If someone wants to provide a brief synopsis of the driver tail of woe, outlining why there isn't a greater level of support, then do so here ... this means you
However, experimental support does exist.
Download v4l-dvb code: hg clone http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb
Download patch: http://dev.kewl.org/hauppauge/v4l-dvb-hg-2007-12-26.diff
Install Patch: ln -s v4l-dvb a; ln -s v4l-dvb b; patch -p0 < v4l-dvb-hg-2007-12-26.diff Note: this doesn't cleanly apply to 2.6.23.14 so a manual patch may be needed for some parts
Compile: cd v4l-dvb; make;make install;reboot ...
http://dev.kewl.org/hauppauge/ about enabling DVB-T or DVB-S2 (DVB-S is the default at the moment)
--- Information Below May need editing changing ---
provide the details of where the drivers and patches and necessary tools are available ... this means you ... you can use the following older content from the article as a basis for your write up:
For DVB-S there is an experimental drivers repository from Steven Toth (see http://www.linuxtv.org/hg/~stoth/hvr4000-dvbs). Analog video and remote control works also with this driver (*).
Currently, no support for simultaneous operation of both DVB-T and DVB-S is implemented. Default operation mode prefers DVB-S.
Guess Note : Using HVR3000 as example the DVB-T and DVB-S use the same demux on the card, so only one will ever be available. The above I expect to be the same for the HVR4000, ie not a linuxtv issue. It is suggested to create symbolic links to access the frontends for some apps (see HVR3000 in this wiki), but you need to ensure your application does not attempt to access both DVB-T and DVB-S at the same time.
(*) Work in progress patches to enable features of this card have been merged into the hvr4000-dvbs repository, yet an updated patchset is available for v4l-dvb hg here: http://dev.kewl.org/hvr4000/
This patchset also adds two hacks which will allow DVB-S2 reception (command line) for experimental purposes, also it allows the selection of which DVB frontend to load, DVB-T or DVB-S/S2.
Multiproto driver
wiki in german language describe what has to be done in order to compil "standard" multiproto driver. Unfortunately at the date of writing, there is no support for our beloved card, so one should fetch the patch from :
patch from linuxtv mailing list.
which you should apply to the tree before compiling the driver (here a little more docs could be usefull...)
After having applied the patch, one could follow the first link of this section to have a VDR with full DVB-S2 support!!!

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"
