Mike,
The answer to your question is "yes". I own an ATI HD USB receiver with
an empia chipset. It works well, with the only problem being a conflict of some kind with Compiz. I simply disable desktop effects when I want to watch TV.
You can find the info you need at linuxtv.org as far as getting and
installing the driver is concerned. Be aware that there are multiple versions of the needed firmware. The firmware at the site may not be the exact firmware that you need. What I did was to extract the firmware from the Windows driver for my specific receiver and copy it to the /lib/firmware/ directory.
After installing V4L-DVB and plugging in your card, run "dmesg" and
look for any errors. If there is a firmware issue, you should see it there. If Devin is still monitoring this site, he may step in and offer help. He gave me an incredible amount of help and is very familiar with the card I have.
