Dear list, As mentioned in the earlier thread (subject Noise) I used fwextract.pl to extract firmware from a Hauppauge CD.
I would just like to add that this is precisely what I did: I extracted it straight from the CD. I am saying that because fwextract includes the following comments: # To extract firmware, just run the script, ensuring that the Windows # driver files have been expanded into a "win_driver" subdirectory. # (Alternatively, just name the relevant directory on the command.) # The script will locate the firmware and extract it into which will # be ready to use for upload into the hardware. This script uses a # table to recognize firmware files; it is able to seek and recognize # multiple driver versions (depending on what's in the table). The above suggests that the drivers first have to be installed on a Windows system such that they are expanded into a directory which can then be processed by fwextract. Not so - I mounted the CD on a Linux system, pointed fwextract at the CD's root directory and this enabled fwextract to find and extract the firmware just fine.
