Hi,
I got a Hauppauge HVR2210 dual tuner card, which is bit of a pain to get
working as you need to get the linuxtv source (as per
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-2200) and also
patch it so the card is recognised. Seems to be working with no problems for
me - except the remote is not supported.

The HVR2200 should be a bit easier as you don't need to patch the source,
but it's still not supported out of the box.

Cheers
Bruce
