Two things, first, the HD3000 drivers that will be loaded by default are the
v4l drivers, not the ATSC drivers. You should disable the HD3000 drivers
from loading at boot. Then get the PVR500 running.
Second, I assume your going to be using the HD3000 for HDTV channels only,
so then have your system load the ATSC digital drivers instead of the v4l.
Technically you can have it load them first then get the PVR500 running, the
order shouldn't matter.
