We’ve released 1.7.3.3937 to Plex Pass users, which has the QuadHD fix in place.
You do not need a special build anymore! Let us know if you have any issues.
Thanks!
It definitely detects it now. It is scanning channels at the moment. It seems to have correctly added the quadhd as two dual tuners. It is now processing EPG data. I am very excited to try the DVR function out. Thanks again.
Thank you for this, waiting on the Linux version with bated breath. 
Me too… 
@jwilds @“venturous@gmail.com” even though my newly purchased quad HD works in Linux under Kaffeine, I still worry that I’ve configured something wrong and ‘that’ is why it’s not right. What models of quad HD tuner do you have out of interest? MIne is 1629.
Is this for the Hauppauge QuadHD PCI Card?

Yes.

I have the 1609.
@marshalleq the lack of Linux function is our fault, not yours. Once we have a working Linux build, we’ll let everyone know.
Worked for me as well thanks!

We are working through the Linux issues now. They are taking longer than anticipated, but instead of holding up this build, I decided to at least share the Windows build.
Given that the (ATSC) 1609 variant requires Linux 4.9 to be properly detected by the cx23885 driver (card variant 57), should we assume an updated kernel will also be needed for this to work under Linux?
(Ubuntu Xenial users can get such an updated kernel by using the LTS kernel updates which are now, I think, coming from the ‘zesty’ release series.)

1609 for me as well.
If you follow:
http://www.hauppauge.com/site/support/linux.html (click on plex)
And install that kernel, you should have support for it in that 4.4 kernel.
As far as I know, while it got into mainline in 4.9, the media_tree branch which Hauppauge is using has had it in older kernels, so should work fine.

On 16.04 (xenial). It’s not on 14.04 LTS (trusty) using the 16.04 kernel:
doesn’t show “Trusty” in the “Published in” dropdown filter box. I’m going to try using the binaries as-is and see if that boots and runs properly.
I did this on 16.04 to get the 4.10 mainstream kernel:
apt install linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04-edge
of course, I did an apt update just to make sure it was up to date before I installed.
what do you have for /dev/dvb/ on that kernel?

Ubuntu kernel + LinuxTV media tree + Hauppauge patches : Brad Love
doesn’t show “Trusty” in the “Published in” dropdown filter box. I’m going to try using the binaries as-is and see if that boots and runs properly.
OK, I did the following on 14.04 (Trusty):
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:b-rad/kernel+mediatree+hauppauge
then edited /etc/apt/sources.list.d/b-rad-kernel_mediatree_hauppauge-trusty.list to change trusty to xenial so it would pull from the correct place. Then installed image and headers as documented, and it boots and runs fine.
(Now to find out why my system isn’t showing V4L2 devices at all, that is, /dev/video0 is missing… heh.
EDIT: nevermind, /dev/dvb/adapter[0-3] exists on this system, so the card is detected by the OS and ready to be used once Plex recognizes it.)
This doesn’t use /dev/video0, look for /dev/dvb0/adapter0/frontend0.
And to verify, with the kernel above on Ubuntu 14.04 (trusty), the me-tv application provided in the Ubuntu repos works… it scans channels on the quadHD 1609 and shows the video fine. This is all promising … now just waiting on Plex support. Thanks for the pointers, @keithah!
(All of /dev/dvb/adapter[0-3] contain {demux,dvr,frontend,net}0.)
