 0x47 is the sync byte for MPEG-2 transport stream packets.
 Datasheet incorrectly states to use 47 decimal. 188 is the length.
 All DVB compliant frontends output packets with this start code.

+Hauppauge WinTV cx88 IR information
+-----------------------------------
+
+The controls for the mux are GPIO [0,1] for source, and GPIO 2 for muting.

+  0        0    TV Audio
+  1        0    FM radio

+====== ======== =================================================
+
+GPIO 16(I believe) is tied to the IR port (if present).
+
+
+From the data sheet:
+
+- Register 24'h20004  PCI Interrupt Status
+ - bit [18]  IR_SMP_INT Set when 32 input samples have been collected over
+ - gpio[16] pin into GP_SAMPLE register.
+
+What's missing from the data sheet:
+
+- Setup 4KHz sampling rate (roughly 2x oversampled; good enough for our RC5
+  compat remote)
+- set register 0x35C050 to  0xa80a80
+- enable sampling
+- set register 0x35C054 to 0x5
+- enable the IRQ bit 18 in the interrupt mask register (and
+  provide for a handler)
+
+GP_SAMPLE register is at 0x35C058
+
+Bits are then right shifted into the GP_SAMPLE register at the specified
+rate; you get an interrupt when a full DWORD is received.
+You need to recover the actual RC5 bits out of the (oversampled) IR sensor
+bits. (Hint: look for the 0/1and 1/0 crossings of the RC5 bi-phase data)  An
+actual raw RC5 code will span 2-3 DWORDS, depending on the actual alignment.
+
+I'm pretty sure when no IR signal is present the receiver is always in a
+marking state(1); but stray light, etc can cause intermittent noise values
+as well.  Remember, this is a free running sample of the IR receiver state
+over time, so don't assume any sample starts at any particular place.
