Hi,

Is there any support for the IR port on Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2250 cards at this time?

After a lot of googling, there seems to be some reports that the IR did work at some point using the ir-kbd-i2c driver, but most results are from 2010 or older. Loading that driver on a 3.7.1 kernel doesn't seem to do anything (nothing shows up in dmesg and no devices in /dev/input/ appear). I also have the latest media_tree from git, built it, and tried it with no success.

The saa7164 module which is used for the video components does seem to make some i2c buses available, as shown in /sys/bus/i2c/devices:

i2c-2 -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000: 00:1c.3/0000:03:00.0/i2c-2 i2c-3 -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000: 00:1c.3/0000:03:00.0/i2c-3 i2c-4 -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000: 00:1c.3/0000:03:00.0/i2c-4

but it seems that no devices are detected on the bus. Am I missing a step, or is IR support on this card not possible?

Thanks,

Nathan
