wintv-hvr-1955 status

Hi:

I have a wintv-hvr-1955 (sold as a wintv-hvr-1950) from Hauppauge.

I referenced a thread in this list in June 2014

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.video-input-infrastructure/78952/match=wintv+hvr+1955

as well as this wiki page

http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-1950

Both of the above suggest that a Linux driver for this device is available from Hauppauge after signing an NDA. So I contacted them on Nov 19 and they responded with the following message:

---
A driver has been recently submitted to Linux TV and is awaiting approval. This process can take anywhere from 2 weeks to 3 months.
---

I am wondering if this is true and if I can get a status of this or an ETA. Is there anything available that I can try? Will support for this device be included in the pvrusb2 driver (like the 1950) or in something else?

Thanks for any information or suggestions.

Steve

It is certainly possible that I have not found the right place in which to ask this question. If someone could direct me to the correct person/forum, I would most appreciate it.

Thanks
