Correct drivers for HVR-1800
Found out both the PCIe x1 slots on my motherboard seem to be bad. But the card does show up in the x16 slot which i'll using until I can get an RMA from Asus (hope they do cross shiping).
I had to blacklist cx23885 so that the nexus drivers would work.
I load driver cx23885 (after the nexus drivers) which then also loads compat_ioctl32 and videobuf_dvb. I also have tried loading ivtv which in turn loads cx2341x, but these seem to have no effect. I got the firmware from http://steventoth.net/linux/hvr1800/, ran the script and put the files in /lib/firmware which already has the firmware for my Nexus.
I got dvb-apps but am having problems compiling it. I am able to compile just scan and used it to scan for atsc channels. There are 2 channels which it says it tunes that don't show up in the list it makes but it also says it won't include analog channels in the list :(.
I patched VDR for atsc channels and added the atscepg plugin. I now have 2 adapters but when I try to scan from the plugin, it says not atsc device found. I also tried seeding the channels.conf with a valid atsc channel using info posted about the patch/plugin, but I get channel not available even if I switch primary devices.
I posted in the dvbn board about the problems with the plugin, but wanted to know if I missed any drivers I need to load.

Sounds OK generally. You don't normally have to do anything with with the drivers to make ATSC or QAM work.
