It is quite unmaintained.  In fact, it was broken for numerous cards
for almost two years before I finally got someone in the Hauppauge UK
office to mail me a couple of affected boards to test with.

Now that it works, I'm very hesitant to see any chances made unless
there is a *very* good reason. It's just too damn easy to introduce
subtle bugs in there that work for "your card" but cause breakage for
others.
