https://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/ATSC_USB_devices I think the 1950 is supported. I would get it working with a simple app first like xawtv.

[ubuntu-mythtv] Problem Encountered with Capture Card Selection During Setup
Greetings to all, I am passing familiar with Ubuntu (Currently running Linux Mint 18.3 on Primary system), but by no means an 'expert'. I am working to install Mythbuntu (16.04.3) on a Dell Optiplex GX620. The capture card I have is a Hauppauge WinTV-HVR 1950. I began the installation of Mythbuntu before discovering the Quick Start Guide that has been written. Except for a very few typos, it is a most excellent, well written document. If you all would like, I would be happy to send the version of the guide I prepared for my own use with the typos corrected. Please let me know.

I chose 'add a new card', as directed, but once I did, nothing else happened. The drop down that was supposed to appear, did not.
