As I said before the HVR 900 does seem supported and it is readily available from any UK retailer so it might be a better option just as it's less hassle so I don't need to buy from Germany.

Re: Hauppauge WinTV HVR-900HD support?
No, I recommended the HVR1900 because *IT* is fully supported, and is *not* getting replaced. HVR900 got replaced. HVR1900 is not as large as a set top box, but it is bigger than the usb sticks, and uses a power brick, for the mpeg encoder. It is on the Hauppauge web site, you probably just overlooked it. -Mike Ok, now I am so sorry and I feel really silly but I can't find it. I have tried hauppauge.co.uk and under HVR-external all I get is 900HD, 900, and 1400: http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/site/products/prods_hvr_external.html now, I even did a search for the 1900 and found nothing on hauppauge search link??? Sure it came up with the 1950 model but no 1900. On top of that I tried www.dabs.com and www.misco.co.uk both of which have the 900 but no 1900. am I missing something or have I just totally gone insane over the last few hours??? --K -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Re: Hauppauge WinTV HVR-900HD support?
I just wanted to mention that the WinTV-HVR-900 is supported but I think only certain revisions. I have one, which doesn't work, a 65018/B3C0.

Regards, Mike Thanks Mike, I managed to find it finally on Amazon.co.uk which claimed that it was available from June 2007! That might explain why it's not on the Hauppauge website as it is most likely getting replaced I actually expected this to be one of those cute USB keys but this thing resembles a set top box :-) I think the WinTV HVR-900 maybe a better option as it is supported. I am guessing that this is the same thing as the H model without the HD support? It maybe ok what do you think?? Also you can use this with a remote too can't you??

I am looking on the www.hauppauge.co.uk website and all I see is a 1400 which is SMC slot?? In fact just checked hauppauge.com and there seems to be a 1950 model! Perhaps it hasn't been released yet or maybe I haven't found it. Is it HD compatible like the HVR-900H model? --This is not so important but a nicety none the less :-) I will forward my previous post to you directly!

Any suggestions would be great! The HVR-900H is currently *not* supported under Linux, and it does not seem that it will get such support anytime in the near future, unfortunately. Please note, I am only speaking for the HVR-900H ... other flavors of the HVR900 are fully functional and supported, just not the "H" version. If you're looking for a well-supported USB hybrid device, I would recommend one of the standard "HVR-900" sticks, or even better, the HVR-1900 . The HVR1900 is a usb device that does Digital DVB-T and analog (PAL / NTSC) both. The analog side has a hardware mpeg encoder -- this is perfect if you intend to use the device for recordings. HVR1900 is fully supported under Linux. I hope this helps.
