Getting the Firmware Getting the Firmware
-------------------- --------------------
Currently, the driver only works with v2.15a of the firmware. The firmwares The firmware can be found in the software update zip files on this page:
can be obtained in this way: http://www.hauppauge.de/sw_dec.htm
wget http://hauppauge.lightpath.net/de/dec215a.exe The firmwares are named as follows:
unzip -j dec215a.exe Software/Oem/STB/App/Boot/STB_PC_T.bin DEC2000-t: STB_PC_T.bin
unzip -j dec215a.exe Software/Oem/STB/App/Boot/STB_PC_S.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

For 2.4 kernels the firmware for the DECs is compiled into the driver itself. 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.
