Inside you can put any of the module parameters that you would like to change. They are described in the wiki ( http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Hauppauge_HD-PVR ). I use the digital audio so I have the line: "options hdpvr default_audio_input=2" as the only line in this file. Either reboot or do a sudo rmmod hdpvr followed by sudo modprobe hdpvr to reload the module and get the new parameters. To find out what the parameters are currently set at in the driver you can do a $cat /sys/module/hdpvr/parameters/xxx where xxx is the parameter name (do a $ls /sys/module/hdpvr/parameters to see what they all are).

I've been attempting to implement the suggestions in this thread,  so I 
have:

lj at mythtv:/etc/modprobe.d$ cat hdpvr.conf
options hdpvr boost_audio=1

and 

lj at mythtv:~$ cat /sys/module/hdpvr/parameters/boost_audio
Y

But  the  OTA  ATSC recordings made with a PCI capture card are still 
louder by far than the recordings made off my usb connected Hauppauge 
HD-PVR 1212 /Dish Network VIP612 satellite receiver combination.   
Anyone see what I am doing wrong?

Thanks  Larry
