Please excuse my previous message. I hit the send button too early.
OK, so I am going to take the advice of others and be persistant. I am trying to add analog support for the
DViCO FusionHDTV7 Dual Express by working with the current code for the HVR-1500. Loading the HVR-1500 driver doesn't work. I have thoughts about the dmesg output.

This makes sense because it is not a hauppauge card, but I think it might be a harmless warning.

2-0064 and 3-0064 are probably the dual digital tuners. 3-0064 tuner type is not set because the HVR1500 card
is a single tuner card and so it only sets one tuner. I am guessing that cx25840' 4-0044 has something to
do with the analog support.

[ 11.310299] cx25840' 4-0044: unable to open firmware v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw
Why is it trying to load v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw? I have the xc5000 firmware installed from
because that is the correct firmware for my card.

[ 11.348955] cx23885_dev_checkrevision() Hardware revision = 0xb0
Is this error a big deal or is it fatal?
I loaded this firmware too. Results are the same until:
[ 11.254199] firmware: requesting v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw
[ 11.876323] cx25840' 4-0044: loaded v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw firmware

[ 11.920777] cx23885_dev_checkrevision() Hardware revision = 0xb0
So it loaded the firmware, but it didn't help with tuning channels. Next attempt was to copy the relevant code from the HVR-1500 section to the FusionHDTV7 Dual Express section. This was just a few lines in
/linux/drivers/media/video/cx23885/cx23885-cards.c
that you will see a little later in this message. The dmesg output was

I don't get dvb_register() or dev_checkrevision() errors, but I still can't tune channels. I suspect that
I have loaded the digital stuff, but the analog stuff hasn't been loaded successfully.
Were there things that were HVR1500 specific? I took a look at
/linux/drivers/media/video/cx23885/cx23885-cards.c:
[CX23885_BOARD_HAUPPAUGE_HVR1500] = {
.name = "Hauppauge WinTV-HVR1500",
// The section for my card is
[CX23885_BOARD_DVICO_FUSIONHDTV_7_DUAL_EXP] = {
.name = "DViCO FusionHDTV7 Dual Express",
.porta = CX23885_ANALOG_VIDEO,
// I added the following for the dvico card
.portb = CX23885_MPEG_DVB,
// back to original code
.portc = CX23885_MPEG_DVB,
// the following is probably not compatible with the dvico card
.tuner_type = TUNER_XC2028,
.tuner_addr = 0x61, /* 0xc2 >> 1 */
// I tried replacing it with the following code. It is a guess, but the following dmesg makes it seem like a good guess.
.tuner_type = TUNER_XC5000,
.tuner_addr = 0x64, /* 0xc2 >> 1 */
// Why is the stuff below referring to 25480? Probably because that has analog support.
// Is that why it asks for the v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw firmware?
// Why are there three different versions below? I would think that TV, Composite and SVideo are outputs,
// but the mythtv tuning setup makes it seem like they are input.
.input = {{
.type = CX23885_VMUX_TELEVISION,
.vmux = CX25840_VIN7_CH3 |
CX25840_VIN5_CH2 |
CX25840_VIN2_CH1,
.gpio0 = 0,
}, {
.type = CX23885_VMUX_COMPOSITE1,
.vmux = CX25840_VIN7_CH3 |
CX25840_VIN4_CH2 |
CX25840_VIN6_CH1,
.gpio0 = 0,
}, {
.type = CX23885_VMUX_SVIDEO,
.vmux = CX25840_VIN7_CH3 |
CX25840_VIN4_CH2 |
CX25840_VIN8_CH1 |
CX25840_SVIDEO_ON,
.gpio0 = 0,
} },
With those minor changes I tried loading the cx23885 module again.

Why is this still asking for v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw firmware? I thought that
my alterations would have changed that? I could remove it, but
I bet it would still be asking for it. It seems to load the xc5000
over and over again so I am guessing my changes were wrong.

Again I don't get dvb_register() or dev_checkrevision() errors, but I still can't tune channels.
What should go here for my card?
.tuner_type = ?
.tuner_addr = ?
As you can see I have made several attempts to dive into the code and understand the error messages. I have tried to identify problem areas so that someone more familiar with the code could possibly see what the errors may be.
