Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-950Q

Basic Configuration

The xc5000 driver needed for this WinTV-HVR-950Q is already part of the latest Linux kernel (v4l-dvb). First you need to download and install the xc5000 firmware: wget http://www.steventoth.net/linux/xc5000/HVR-12x0-14x0-17x0_1_25_25271_WHQL.zip wget http://www.steventoth.net/linux/xc5000/extract.sh sh extract.sh cp dvb-fe-xc5000-1.1.fw /lib/firmware modprobe xc5000 The firmware will be added lazily (on-demand) when you first use the driver. After you plug-in the device on a USB 2.0 input, you can use something like this on dmesg: usb 1-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 usb 1-3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice au0828: i2c bus registered tveeprom 0-0050: Hauppauge model 72001, rev B3F0, serial# 5280879 tveeprom 0-0050: MAC address is 00-0D-FE-50-94-6F tveeprom 0-0050: tuner model is Xceive XC5000 (idx 150, type 4) tveeprom 0-0050: TV standards NTSC(M) ATSC/DVB Digital (eeprom 0x88) tveeprom 0-0050: audio processor is AU8522 (idx 44) tveeprom 0-0050: decoder processor is AU8522 (idx 42) tveeprom 0-0050: has no radio, has IR receiver, has no IR transmitter hauppauge_eeprom: hauppauge eeprom: model=72001 xc5000 0-0061: creating new instance xc5000: Successfully identified at address 0x61 xc5000: Firmware has not been loaded previously DVB: registering new adapter (au0828) DVB: registering adapter 0 frontend 0 (Auvitek AU8522 QAM/8VSB Frontend)...
