I have a few patches I need to do for VDR-VNSI to work with a Hauppauge HDPVR and pvrinput. Also ATSC/QAM256 needs a little tweaking as Comcast (the largest cable company in the US) uses some interesting (read non standard) settings.
The problem with the HDPVR is that the audio is passed through from the cable box, therefore is signaled as AC-3 from ATSC, (ie, type 0x80), but this is excluded by the plugin.
I also needed to increase the timeout from 2s to 10seconds in PVRChannel.cpp as the HDPVR takes too long to start displaying a picture.
