Overview/Features

This device supports ATSC (i.e. OTADigital TV) and analog NTSC. It also has a connector on the side for an A/V cable dongle, however, such is not shipped with some versions of the device (though it apparently is in the case with the identical ElgatoEyeTV Hybrid US). The package includes a small dipole antenna and a short USB extension cable.

There may be slightly different versions of this device being sold -- internally the components are the same, but minor variances in the exterior shell casing. Models listed [1] include:

  • model 01139: WinTV-HVR-950 with ATSC and NTSC tuners, and portable antenna
  • model 01145: WinTV-HVR-950 for Mac's and PC's. For use in North America. Bundled with Elgato EyeTV Lite for Mac's and WinTV v6 for PC's
  • model 01176: WinTV-HVR-950 with ATSC and NTSC tuners plus French/Englsh manual and portable antenna

Also see the HVR-950Q, released in Q1/08, which adds support for digital cable.

Components used:

  • Xceive xc3028ACQ (tuner & analog demodulator)
  • LG DT3303 (digital demodulator)
  • Texas Instruments tvp5150 (video decoder)
  • Empiatech em2883 (USB bridge and analog audio)

Identification

This descriptor is from a unit packaged as a 'WinTV HVR 950, model 1176', which is shipped with the A/V cables and toy-sized antenna but no remote:

Firmware

In order to use the LinuxTV driver, you need to download and install the firmware. Here is the procedure to follow (taken from the help found in extract_xc3028.pl):

Download the windows driver with something like:

Extract the file hcw85bda.sys from the zip into the current dir:

run the extract_xc3028.pl script found in linux/Documentation/video4linux:

copy the generated file so it can be picked up by the Linux kernel:

Analog Audio Issue

Analog audio appears to be problematic so you will likely need to employ SOX as a helper application, prior to starting the viewing app, in order to get any sound in popular apps like tvtime etc.

sox -r 48000 -w -c 2 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp

Note that there may be an associated delay (i.e. not in sync).

The root of the problem is that the em28xx presents itself as a USB audio device, and applications such as tvtime do not know to associate the video stream with the audio stream.

Note that Markus Rechberger maintains a version of tvtime that is patched to work around this limitation: Mcentral.de tvtime
