HDPVR(4)		    Kernel Interfaces Manual		      HDPVR(4)

NAME
       hdpvr --	webcamd	driver for Hauppauge USB HD-PVR

SYNOPSIS
       hdpvr

DESCRIPTION
       The  hdpvr driver supports the Hauppauge	HD-PVR,	a USB device that cap-
       tures the component video outputs and analog/optical audio  outputs  of
       consumer	 devices  such as cable/satellite set-top-boxes, HD disk play-
       ers, and	video game consoles. The HD-PVR	captures video	via  component
       output,	permitting  the	 capture  of HD	video from most	sources. Since
       component video cannot be encrypted, satellite and  premium  television
       can be fully accessible to applications such as MythTV.

       Devices	using  the hdpvr driver	become available to other applications
       once webcamd(8) is loaded.

HARDWARE
       The hdpvr driver	should	work  with  the	 following  USB	 devices.  The
       usbconfig(8) command can	be used	to determine the VendorID:ProductID of
       a plugged in USB	device.

       VendorID:ProductID		   Device
       2040:4900			   Hauppauge HD-PVR
       2040:4901			   Hauppauge HD-PVR
       2040:4902			   Hauppauge HD-PVR
       2040:4903			   Hauppauge HD-PVR
       2040:4982			   Hauppauge HD-PVR

       Newer  ProductIDs  may  also be supported by adding them	to the hdpvr.h
       and hdpvr-core.c	files found within the work/ subdirectory of the  web-
       camd  ports  directory. If this directory does not exist, run "make ex-
       tract" in /usr/ports/multimedia/webcamd,	edit the files,	 then  compile
       the port.

CAVEATS
       Firmware	upgrades must be run from a Windows system. If you have	a "rev
       c1" unit	you must install the HD-PVR at least once on a Windows machine
       to  load	the firmware into it. If you have a Revision 2 unit (including
       a sticker marked	"rev c2" on the	bottom of the unit) then it will  come
       loaded with a firmware.
