The system recognizes the card and all modules are loaded without problem. One with no remote, one that's only good for their software, and another with a Vista MCE remote. I have installed a WinTV-HVR-1800 v4l from the head and ivtv on a 2.6.25-gentoo-r8 kernel with analog cable. Hauppauge has multiple SKUs for their stuff, the 1600 at least if not most/all. I haven't used mine for NTSC, and only once for unencrypted QAM, so beyond that I don't know. Its my understanding that the TS is the ATSC/QAM tuner, which I am not utilizing at the moment. In SageTV under sources, I see PCI 1 and 2 (the two tuners on the PVR-500) and 885 and 885 TS (the analog and ATSC tuners on the HVR-1800). Hardware encoding? In the case of ATSC, it's just the transport streams, no encoding necessary. I am using a Hauppauge WinTV PVR-500 and a Hauppauge WinTV HVR-1800 with SageTV.
HAUPPAUGE WINTV HVR1800 INSTALL
I can't really say I've heard anything bad about it, and all you really need to do is hook it up to a router - no install and roll the driver dice like w/ my Dvico. I'm seriously considering the HDHomeRun for my next HTPC/tuner "card" purchase. DVICO's software/drivers like dropping out complaining about "no TV tuner installed" sometimes. I've grown to love Visa MCE for my OTA/ATSC viewing, unencrypted QAM would be a welcome addition, since the Hauppage software blows (perhaps it's improved since I last tried it a few months back). I really wish M$ would have told the cable co's to fuck off. Couldn't pull in nearly as many (unencrypted QAM, ATSC was no difference for me) channels as the shittacular Dvico software/my Fusion 5 RT Lite. Clear QAM are digital ATSC channels which are re-broadcast on digital cable TV Two tuners on board: a 125 channel cable ready TV tuner and an ATSC digital TV tuner. Nice when it works, but it's software SUCKS. Found 1 driver for Windows 8, Windows 8 64-bit, Windows 7, Windows 7 64-bit, Windows Vista, Windows Vista 64-bit, Windows XP, Windows XP 64-bit.
