I have a Hauppauge 1950 running on a win 10 laptop and cannot get it to be recognized on KODI ver. 18. Is there a specific driver that can be used for this unit or another one in the KODI PVR list that will function?

I'm moving this post to PVR & Live TV Support

Which PVR backend software are you using? As based on your question we assume that you have not yet installed a PVR backend software?

If you have not or have no idea what I am talking about then read http://kodi.wiki/view/PVR and http://kodi.wiki/view/PVR_backend

You do need to use a PVR backend software as Kodi does not nativly support tuners itself.

So yes you will need drivers for your tuner from Hauppauge but you also need a PVR backend software that is compatible with Kodi.
