Hauppauge technical support tested various Hauppauge TV tuners with Ubuntu Desktop, and has created both a video and a list of steps to install the TV tuners on Ubuntu Desktop PPA’s are the only way to get Hauppauge drivers updated in Ubuntu between distro releases. It says that the backend is already running, do I want to stop it, and when I say yes an XTerm window opens but doesn’t seem to do anything.

As with over-the-air TV signal strength, if the signal Quality is low, you might want to check your cable system in your home and either remove splitters (each splitter you have on a home cable network lowers the signal strength) or use a "cable TV signal booster".If you just want to watch TV, there’s several lighter applications like tvtime, me-tv, mplayer, etc. If you are watching 'clear QAM' digital cable TV (in Europe this is called DVB-C), you can use the WinTV's signal strength display to see the reception quality of that channel. Using the Signal Monitor to monitor the quality of a digital TV channel Here are some tips to help optimize the TV reception for over-the-air signals. In this case, you might want to consider an antenna "booster" or a better TV antenna. If you cannot get a good TV picture after positioning the antenna, the digital TV signal is too weak to receive a Digital TV program without distortion. The higher the percentage, the better the TV signal is. In WinTV, look at the Quality indicator, and position your antenna to maximize the Quality.This might require a longer antenna cable, but if your antenna is not pointing at the TV transmitter, you will not get good reception. If you have a flat window style antenna, pick a window which is 'pointing' to the TV transmitter.The higher up from the floor your antenna is, the better the signal strength will be.The best positions of the antenna are those where there is a clear view to the TV transmitter.The digital signal strength will be displayed as a % (percent) of the maximum signal strength possible Run WinTV v10 and tune to the TV channel where you have the best TV picture.Using the Signal Monitor to adjust a digital TV antenna The Signal Monitor is a handy tool which can be used to either adjust your digital TV antenna, or when used with digital cable TV, to know if your digital signal is too weak to receive a signal without distortion.
