It has a BT chipset, can not remember the numberr right now. It has an Infrared remote that does not work with Linux. I just do not know how to make it to work. The card also has a Radio Tuner that I do not know how to make it to work neither, I have not found an application that works a radio.
However, Xawtv and Zapping works excellent, better than the WinTV 2000 M$ softare. On Windows it shows a small noise line across the top of the screen on some channels. On Linux there is none and the Picture is much clear and crisp. The Card was detected during install no extra settings need it. All keyboard commads works.
I have a video capture card for a web cam, it has the same chipset at the Hauppauge TV tuner card. Did not worked one or the other when placed together, neither with M$. This 2 cards does no play well together, avoidance is a must, M$ will not boot BOSD and Mandrake will boot but just does not work at all.
