It's a capture device that connects to a computer.
It won't work with Myth at all until there is a confirmed working Linux 
driver and support is explicitly added into MythTV.

My hope is that it is released with a working Linux driver and support 
is added relatively quickly and backported to 0.21 so I don't have to 
move off packages and back onto SVN again to get this working ASAP. 
These are just hopes, of course. ;)
