TV, Ubuntu, and AMD's TV Wonder 600 USB Installation

The ATI TV Wonder 600 USB is not supported on Windows 7 or later but is still supported on GNU/Linux.  The best thing to know is that it's really quick and easy to setup and install on Ubuntu.  All you need to do is execute three steps and you can watch TV in less than 5 minutes.  The instructions on the Linux TV website are all you need and always up to date.  To be brief,  open a terminal window and perform the following commands:


  1. cd /lib/firmware
  2. sudo wget http://steventoth.net/linux/hvr1400/xc3028L-v36.fw
  3. sudo apt-get install me-tv
And that's all there really to is to it.  Just start Me Tv and scan for stations.

The short video below shows you the steps.
