Hello Trip,

If Hauppauge provided you a driver, you need to direct all support
questions to them.  We aren't going to know the first thing about what
is wrong with such a driver since we've never seen it.

If they've made available a driver in source form under the GPL,
that's a great first step.  However it doesn't mean that the open
source community all of a sudden becomes responsible for the burden
associated with supporting such a driver (in particular when no
datasheets have been made available).

Cheers,

Devin
