====HDHomeRun from Silicondust====
The HDHR does indeed work well under Linux using [[MythTV]] or [[VLC]]. This interesting embedded device contains:
* twin Thomson DTF8640B NIMs, which feature the Zoran/Oren Cascade2 digital demodulator, and which provide support for both 8-VSB (ATSC) and 64/256-QAM (SCTE 07 Digital Cable) sources
* a Ubicom IP3023 RISC network processor, running Ubicom's own ipOS RTOS, and which is capable of hardware PID filtering
