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.
If you specify analog .porta in the card struct, it has to load the analog audio encoder firmware. This is why this firmware is loaded.

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
http://www.steventoth.net/linux/xc5000/
because that is the correct firmware for my card.
remove the portb and portc entries in your newly defined cards struct, these errors will be removed.

Is this error a big deal or is it fatal?
Focus on fixing analog first, enabling portb and portc only complicates things.Use tvtime and switch he input to svideo or composite, does this work?
Next I tried to go out and find v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw which was at <http://www.steventoth.net/linux/hvr1800/>
http://www.steventoth.net/linux/hvr1800/
I loaded this firmware too. Results are the same until:
[ 11.254199] firmware: requesting v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw

[ 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.
remove the portb definition for the time being.
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,
Acccording to the logs, shouldn't this be 0xc8 >> 1? or 0xc4 >> 1?
// 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 */
Correct.
// 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.
Yes.
// Is that why it asks for the v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw firmware?
One section for each available input. TVTuner, Composite and Svideo. They configure the video mux to the correct signals are received by the video hardware.
// Why are there three different versions below? I would think that TV, Composite and SVideo are outputs,
You need to modify the tuner_callback function to toggle the correct GPIO and reset the tuner hardware, else you will get this error.
// 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,

CX25840_VIN4_CH2 |
CX25840_VIN8_CH1 |
CX25840_SVIDEO_ON,
.gpio0 = 0,
} },
With those minor changes I tried loading the cx23885 module again.

Try tvtime, and switch tvtime to use the composite or svideo inputs connected to a video source. Does this help?
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.
Good good. Disable all of the portb and portc code. Focus on getting analog svideo or composite working first. After this the tuner changes should be small.
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.
Once analog is working correctly, digital can be enabled.
Thanks Tim,

I followed you advice and changed the tuner to 0xc8 >> 1. I get a warning about outdated support for tuners and a request for xc3028-v27.fw. I went looking for the file, but could not find it. Any ideas? I still cannot tune channels with tvtime. Thanks for your help. My dmesg output is below.
