Second Hauppauge quadHD firmware problem

[bgowland]

I bought another WinTV-quadHD for my Debian 12 box. It's recognised and NextPVR can see it but I'm getting errors for one particular firmware file...

Code:

[   22.518137] si2157 38-0060: firmware: failed to load dvb_driver_si2157_rom50.fw (-2)

What's really annoying  is I can't find it anywhere for download and the first card doesn't need it - that's another annoying thing - both cards have identical labels on them showing "DVB-T/T2/C 178100 LF" BUT the one I bought back in April/May is "Rev A416" and the one I bought a couple of weeks ago is "Rev A316" which I'm assuming is older, If I can only find that file I might be able to get things working.

Cheers,
Brian

I've never seen dvb firmware called dvb_driver* From this https://github.com/belgio99/dsm7-dvb-dri...me-ov-file I did see

dvb-tuner-si2157-a30-01.fw (I had to rename it to dvb_driver_si2157_rom50.fw to make it work)

so maybe copy it.

Thanks Martin though it seems a bit odd. I'm getting 8 repetitions of the following in journalctl...

Code:

[   20.997616] si2168 31-0067: firmware: direct-loading firmware dvb-demod-si2168-d60-01.fw
[   20.997630] si2168 31-0067: downloading firmware from file 'dvb-demod-si2168-d60-01.fw'
[   21.346656] si2168 31-0067: firmware version: D 6.0.13
[   21.350610] si2157 39-0063: found a 'Silicon Labs Si2157-A30 ROM 0x50'
[   21.350645] si2157 39-0063: firmware: failed to load dvb_driver_si2157_rom50.fw (-2)
[   21.350671] si2157 39-0063: firmware: failed to load dvb_driver_si2157_rom50.fw (-2)
[   21.351263] si2157 39-0063: firmware: direct-loading firmware dvb-tuner-si2157-a30-01.fw
[   21.351268] si2157 39-0063: downloading firmware from file 'dvb-tuner-si2157-a30-01.fw'
[   22.155710] si2157 39-0063: firmware version: 3.0.5

...so it's loading dvb-tuner-si2157-a30-01.fw anyway as a separate step. Obviously the failures for the dvb_driver... version are purely because it doesn't exist. I'll try making a copy and rename anyway and see what happens.
