Description Jakub Steiner 2013-11-05 19:10:00 UTC
Description of problem:
While the Hauppauge HD PVR USB capture card was supported in Fedora 19 and earlier, using the V4L interface, it no longer produces viewable video. It used to capture the h264 + aac streams in f19, but doesn't seem to light up the blue led when capturing and the data coming from /dev/video0 are unindetifyable to me 9attached).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

kernel-3.11.6-300.fc20


How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. plug the HD PVR into USB.
2. cat /dev/video0 > attachment.mp4

Actual results:
attached.

Expected results:
playable mp4 TS containing h264+aac streams.

Additional info:

The device seems detected correctly

Can't seem to get anything from the device now.

Nov 05 20:15:03 poseidon kernel: hdpvr 1-1.3:1.0: device now attached to video0

but when I try to 

$ sudo cat /dev/video0 > foo

I get 

cat: /dev/video0: Input/output error

Nevermind, the problem was between the monitor and chair.
