56.Sh DESCRIPTION
57The
58.Nm
59driver provides support for the PCI
60.Em video
61capture on the Hauppauge PVR-250/350.
62It uses the
63.Xr bktr 4
97edcb45 64and Meteor driver ioctls.

66Note that in order for the
265a1428 67.Nm
e9afadfd
SW
68driver to work properly, the necessary firmware files have to be extracted
69from the driver CD-ROM prior to compiling the kernel.
70The tool necessary to do this can be found in
71.Pa /usr/src/tools/multimedia/cxm/extract_fw .
