The HD-3000 is well supported under Linux (added to kernel 2.6.12).
Overview/Features
This was the second ATSC card brought to market by pcHDTV. It is no longer in production and has been superseded by pcHDTV's HD-5500.
Components Used
Identification
lspci -vn will reveal that the card has a subsystem PCI ID of 7063:3000
Making it Work
Firmware
This card requires a firmware file (dvb-fe-or51132-vsb.fw and/or dvb-fe-or51132-qam.fw) for the demodulator. You only need both if you wish to allow the driver access to both modes (8-VSB and 64/256-QAM) of operation (the driver will upload the appropriate firmware to the card as needed). These files can be obtained several different ways:
- from the LinuxTV downloads section
- using the get_dvb_firmware perl script included with kernel sources:
# cd /[kernel source directory]/Documentation/dvb/ # perl get_dvb_firmware or5132_qam # perl get_dvb_firmware or5132_vsb
- or from the pcHDTV downloads page
Whatever method you choose (you'll get the same files regardless of the source), once the download is complete, place a copy of the firmware files in your /lib/firmware directory. (This directory may differ with some distros; consult your distro's documentation for the appropriate location).
