Q: 

How do I get the MAC/Serial of a DVB device on Linux?

I have a couple of Hauppage 950Q USB tuners attached to a Linux PC (CentOS) and I want to be able to differntiate which one is which. On windows I can query the MAC of the USB tuners to accomplish this, but on Linux I am not sure how to do that because this functionality is not exposed (to my knowlege) by the video4linux API that I'm accessing the devices through.

A C/C++ solution is preferred, but any help is appreciated :)
