Getting the Firmware
--------------------
Currently, the driver only works with v2.15a of the firmware. The firmwares
can be obtained in this way:
The firmware can be found in the software update zip files on this page:
http://www.hauppauge.de/sw_dec.htm
wget http://hauppauge.lightpath.net/de/dec215a.exe
unzip -j dec215a.exe Software/Oem/STB/App/Boot/STB_PC_T.bin
unzip -j dec215a.exe Software/Oem/STB/App/Boot/STB_PC_S.bin
The firmwares are named as follows:
DEC2000-t: STB_PC_T.bin
DEC2540-t: STB_PC_X.bin
DEC3000-s: STB_PC_S.bin
Note that firmwares since version 2.16 beta2 for the DEC2000-t give the device
the USB ID of the DEC3000-s. The driver copes with this.
Instructions follow for retrieving version 2.16 of the firmware:
wget http://hauppauge.lightpath.net/de/dec216.exe
unzip -j dec216.exe software/OEM/STB/App/Boot/STB_PC_T.bin
unzip -j dec216.exe software/OEM/STB/App/Boot/STB_PC_X.bin
unzip -j dec216.exe software/OEM/STB/App/Boot/STB_PC_S.bin
Compilation Notes for 2.4 kernels
---------------------------------
For 2.4 kernels the firmware for the DECs is compiled into the driver itself.
The firmwares are expected to be in /etc/dvb at compilation time.
The firmwares are expected to be in the build-2.4 directory at compilation
time.
mv STB_PC_T.bin /etc/dvb/dec2000t.bin
mv STB_PC_S.bin /etc/dvb/dec3000s.bin

Hotplug Firmware Loading for 2.6 kernels
......@@ -45,5 +59,6 @@ Hotplug Firmware Loading for 2.6 kernels
For 2.6 kernels the firmware is loaded at the point that the driver module is
loaded. See linux/Documentation/dvb/firmware.txt for more information.
