Re: Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-T-500 support

[Thomas Kernen <tkernen@deckpoint.ch>]

So I've tested a WinTV-NOVA-T-500 model 283 (SL-283-V2.0-GER) which 
according to the wiki isn't suppose to work:
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-NOVA-T-500

Anyhow, the revision I own, (WinTV-NOVA-T-500, 99101 LF, Rev D8B5) I 
seem to have no issues with support, no errors on loading the modules or 
tuning to the different DVB-T tuners. I'll go ahead and update the Wiki 
page to add a note that this revision actually does work and that the 
blanket statement claiming all model 283 are not supported.

Regards,
Thomas
