How to change firmware for a device
Posted: Sat Sep 15, 2012 1:27 pm
this is in relation to tv tuners; i am using kernel 3.2.27
I followed the linuxtv guide for my tuner (here) and the device dropdown in tvheadend is not showing the device.
so i look at syslog and dmesg and I am getting a bunch of errors with "cx231xx" such as, but not limited to:
But the firmware linuxtv reports is xc5000, so I am going on a hunch that the machine is using the wrong firmware.
is there a way to confirm which firmware is being used and, if it is the wrong firmware, how do I tell the machine to use the right one?
