Making it Work

The board works in digital mode only currently.

Firmware

Proper operation of the device needs 3 firmware files (dvb-fe-tda10048-1.0.fw, v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw and v4l-cx23885-enc.fw), which can be obtained at the following location. Once the download is complete, you need to extract the files and place a copy of them in your /lib/firmware directory. (This directory may differ with some distros; consult your distro's documentation for the appropriate location) :

# wget http://steventoth.net/linux/hvr1700/HVR-12x0-14x0-17x0_1_25_25271_WHQL.zip
# wget http://steventoth.net/linux/hvr1700/extract.sh
# wget http://steventoth.net/linux/hvr1700/readme.txt
# less readme.txt
# /bin/sh extract.sh
# sudo cp v4l-cx23885-enc.fw /lib/firmware
# sudo cp v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw /lib/firmware
# sudo cp dvb-fe-tda10048-1.0.fw /lib/firmware

Drivers

As of Kernel 2.6.28 and onwards, a simple

modprobe cx23885

will do.
