An update on my pvr500 weak tuner problem in case anyone may have the
same problem I am.

I contacted hauppauge directly and described the problem. Their tech
support emailed me some pre release drivers to try, so I installed
windows and installed those drivers and tested with Snapstream's trial
download of Beyond TV. I had the same problem in windows as I did in
Linux with ivtv. The hauppauge tech told me that I probably have a bad
card and that I should RMA it.

So if any of you are having the same problem, make sure you test it in
windows with the official hauppauge drivers and see if it's your card
that is the problem. Maybe there's a bad batch or something going
around.

I think I'll just get two 150s instead of taking a chance with another
500. It sounds like too many people are having problems that I don't
care to deal with.
