<br>
Hauppauge has released an open source Linux driver for its HD PVR 2 model 1512, capable of capturing a 1080p video stream over HDMI.<br>

<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>It looks like this driver is no longer there, and I didn't find it elsewhere on their FTP site. I was hoping this meant that they had a release version of it, but I suspect they simply got annoyed with customer questions and removed it. I'm hopeful they get something out soon for it, as I really want to ditch cable for fiber but don't want to buy the older HD PVR models at a premium.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
This is the only personal video recorder on the market that can capture full HD video at 30 fps (1080p30) over HDMI and that has an open source Linux driver.<br>
<br>
It would be great to have this driver merged upstream so that it works with Linux out of the box. Could anyone ask the kernel developers on the linux-media list (<a href="http://www.linuxtv.org/lists.php" target="_blank">http://www.linuxtv.org/lists.php</a>) if they would be interested in porting it?<br>
