[mythtv-users] Happauge HVR-1800 . . . latest opinions?

[stefan_jones at comcast.net]

I believe that my MythBox has an open PCI-Ex1 slot, so the HvR-1800 is still a possibility. However, if the HVR-1600 is older and more stable that is certainly a possibility.

You're in luck! A fix for this went into their source tree in early 
January:

I picked it up a few weeks ago and everything is working great now. 

BTW, how did you do the capture? Nothing I tried seem to work for me.
