[Bug 581238] Re: Hauppauge WinTV MiniStick missing firmware

[Tommy Vestermark]

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.
