I was able to get full ATSC support from the HVR-950 running the latest Ubuntu 7.10 with a std mythtv install. I was also able to finagle getting the other input devices (NTSC/S-Video/Composite) functioning by using their respective V4L names. There is a sox sound hack that's been floating around because analog sound support is not currently available. I have not tested it. Sorry to say it's not a problem specific to your environment.

that's where I started. Let me know if you would like more detailed information about my setup. From what I have gathered, the HVR-950 does not do QAM decoding, so digital cable is not available (could someone clarify this as a hardware/software issue?), only OTA (VSB encoding).
Good luck!

Hello,
Could somebody please give me a quick status of where they believe the
HVR-950 is at in terms of support in the mainline? Video appears to
work for analog (once the xc3028 firmware is loaded), as well as
channel tuning, although there is no audio at all. Also no ATSC
support since we don't have multiproto support yet in the mainline (no
/dev/dvb device appearing).
If anyone else out there is working with the HVR-950, could you please
confirm that audio is not working? I just want to be sure that this
isn't something specific to my environment.
Thanks,
