I just have bought an avertv h830 hybrid tv usb stick, the vendor having certified to me it will work under linux... By now it does not.
When I plug the stick, no /dev/video device is created.
I suppose it lacks some firmware supporting this hardware.
Does somebody know if this stick will be supported in the future ?

If the vendor "certified it", then you should be calling their technical support instead of asking us.

If you read their website, you will see that the volar HX is supported, not volar HD.
