I believe a newer firmware can be found by extracting it directly from the Hauppauge driver: $ wget http://www.wintvcd.co.uk/drivers/WinTV-MiniStick_4_2_26_28027_WHQL.zip $ unzip -j WinTV-MiniStick_4_2_26_28027_WHQL.zip driver17/hcw17dvb.1b0 $ sudo mv hcw17dvb.1b0 /lib/firmware/sms1xxx-hcw-55xxx-dvbt-02.fw
This procedure was inspired by this page: http://ubuconf.buron.eu/2010/03/changing-firmware-for-hauppage- wintv.html This newer file differ from (is bigger than) the file downloaded from steventoth.net. I have tested with both files and not found any visible difference. -- Hauppauge WinTV MiniStick missing firmware https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/581238 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
