    Additionally, it will only work with the Hauppauge 950Q USB tuner.

    It might if the drivers for it are similar enough to the 950q and as long as you only want OTA signals.

    How about Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-930C?

    How about Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-930C?
    Are you asking this for the Windows version of Boxee or for the Boxee Box? Because Live TV will only work on the Boxee Box, with a compatible USB tuner.

    No tuners will work with the desktop versions of Boxee.

    Furthermore, Live TV is only supported in the US and Canada currently, regardless of the tuner.

    So, to summarize:

    You must be using a Boxee Box
    You must have a compatible USB tuner, officially only the 950Q is supported
    You must be in the US or Canada

    Nothing else will work currently.

    Correct, the Boxee Live TV tuner works with the Box and firmware version 1.5 because. The other tuner mentioned above, will not.
