They won't be able to help, I can - but not for a few weeks.

I'm expecting to release public USB protocol information during Jan 08 which would allow a GPL driver to be written. Right now I have nothing to give you.

If you feel adventurous, feel free to start now by reverse engineering the protocol with a windows software USB sniffer, it won't be wasted work. The device is Cypress FX2 based (which Linux has lots of examples for) and it loads custom firmware (which Linux has lots of examples of) apart from that I think the protocol is very simple.

How to integrate it with the kernel s/w demux would be an interesting debate.

Let me know if I can help.

Steve,

what happened to this?

Thanks,
Julian

Steve,

what happened to this?

Hauppauge are relying on the word of an external vendor to provide documentation. In the past they've agreed to release all the materials during Jan, but now all of my emails are not being answered.

When I have anything I'll release it.
