I recently got a Hauppauge WIN-TV HVR-900TV USB 2.0 Analogue & Digital TV Tuner in order to digitize old VHS tapes.

However it doesn't work out of the box on Ubuntu Linux. You can get analog video (but not audio) working under Linux if you patch your kernel.

The Hardware

Unfortunately there are several versions of the HVR-900 sold. I have the HVR-900H, but it says HVR-900 on the box. The HVR 900 works well in linux, however the HVR 900H doesn't have good linux support. You can tell them apart by the output of lsusb. Here's my one: Darkest hour game.

The kernel patch

This is the kernel patch you need to apply:

This is from a post on linux-media mailinglist, however it is not applied to the main kernel source, since it would not fully work. As far as I can tell, this patch makes the analog video work, but not the digital video. However for my uses (digitizing VHS), analog video is fine.

Device numbers

Every time you unplug the USB device and plug it back in, it'll get a new device number. If you plug it in first, it'll be /dev/video0, if you unplug it, and replug it, the same USB device will now be /dev/video1. When you reboot, it'll (obviously) reset to /dev/video0. GStreamer allows you to record for any video device with v4l2src

What works

With this patch, analog video (both with the tv aerial/co-axial cable, and via composite) works. Analog audio doesn't work. I can't try digitial (since I don't have it available to test), but I've been told digitial video or audio doesn't work.

Getting it working

I wanted to digitize some old video cassette tapes, and to use GStreamer on the command line (gst-launch).

Switching the device to composite

The tvtime application can switch the device from analog signal tuning to use a analog composite input. Just plug the device in, plug in the composite cable, start playing a video, then run tvtime, it'll automatically switch the device to composite. There might be some command line v4l2 programmes to do it aswell.

Recording with gstreamer

Recording video

To gstreamer, this USB TV tuner appears as just another v4l2src in the pipeline. Your video will appear out of there.

Recording audio

I plugged an analog audio input into the microphone port of my computer, and recorded the audio with pulseaudio

Example Pipeline

This will display the video as it's playing. Watch TV on your computer!

For the record here's the lsusb -v output while the tv tuner is plugged in:

About TV Tuner Driver/Utility:

TV Tuner drivers act as a communication bridge between your TV tuner and your personal computer. Whether you are using an external or an internal TV Tuner, it is very important that you update your drivers as often as possible in order to use your device at its maximum potential.
When bugs are found in the software, developers launch new drivers meant to solve these issues and improve compatibility with newer operating systems, as well as add new features to the device.
Usually, TV tuner drivers come as part of a package that also contains the video playback software. This way, users get to enjoy a more stable, bug-free experience, but also an improved user interface for the included playback software.
Most of the times, TV Tuner drivers come in an easy to use installation software bundle which guides the user through all the steps, but that's not always the case: there are situations in which, with older devices, the driver must be added manually.
Before clicking the download button, please make sure that you have selected the appropriate driver for your unit and operating system. Don't forget to check with our website for the latest drivers and software in order to keep your device up to date and running smoothly.

It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.
Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
