HP PC with hauppauge WinTV USB internal card

Added by steve glover over 9 years ago

Hi

I have an HP PC with an internal TV tuner which on inspection is a hauppauge tv tuner 133559LF Rev B0H1

Installed Linux Mint 17 and TVheadend ok with the intention of this machine being a backend PVR to an exisiting Linux Mint/XBMC 'Frodo' Frontend in the Lounge!

tvheadend does not find the TVcard, syslog reports:
Mar 24 09:36:32 htpc-kodi tvheadend892: v4l: /dev/video0: sdr_msi3101 Mirics MSi3101 SDR Dongle usb-0000:00:1a.0-1.1 capabilities: 0x80010000
Mar 24 09:36:32 htpc-kodi tvheadend892: v4l: /dev/video0: Device is not a video capture device, device skipped

So it thinks is something but no a video source?! do I need an 'updated' Linux Driver for it? as its being detected I suspect Linux Mint has detected it! but I'm not sure
it does show up as a device with lsusb command and is listed as a hauppauge device but no other info:

I've hunted for hauppauge tv tuner 133559LF and Mirics MSi3101 linux drivers to no avail so far!

Anyone have any ideas

Thanks
Steve
