Hello list,

where do I get the dvb-usb-dw2104.fw firmware-file for my TeVii S650? The driver-package downloadble from the manufacturer website ( http://tevii.com/support.html ) only contains dvb-fe-cx24116.fw, dvb-usb-s600.fw, and dvb-usb-s600.fw. The manufacturers driver is multiproto-based which is not what I want.

The method described here:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.dvb/44694
to get the firmware doesn't work anymore, the file has been removed.

Any hints?

Thanks in advance,
Carsten

I've found this thread:
http://www.allrussian.info/thread.php?postid=1460227
Because I cannot speak any russian, I've auto-translated it with google. Am I right that it suggests to simply rename dvb-usb-s650.fw from the manufacturer to dvb-usb-dw2104.fw?

Thanks,
Carsten

OK, now I've managed to make the device working. Some guide for others:

1. Download the linux-driver-package from http://tevii.com/support.html
2. Extract the firmware files dvb-fe-cx24116.fw and dvb-usb-s650.fw from the fw-dir into /lib/firmware
3. Rename dvb-usb-s650.fw to dvb-usb-dw2104.fw

That's all.

Now the problems:

1. scan (dvb-utils) aborts after some scanning and complains about invalid frontend parameters (only a subset of the channels are therefore available in the generated channels.conf)
2. The IR works out of the box, but generates funny keystrokes (e.g. vol up generates "d"; Maybe another keymap would help?)

Hope these problems can be fixed somehow. My system: Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.27
