Description Pinky 2007-06-13 13:52:42 UTC
address http://www.technotrend.de/new/217g/tt_Premium_217g.zip for firmware download does not exist for long time...

Possible solutions are: 
  add this file into mirror or
  print to user information to find and download this file by hand.

I does not found good source (official website) for this file.

Reproducible: Always

Fixed. Now use the URL upstream uses, too.
Comment 4 Alan Hourihane 2007-06-26 09:10:44 UTC
Still doesn't work here. 
Comment 5 Matthias Schwarzott gentoo-dev 2007-06-26 09:16:21 UTC
@Alan:
What file is not downloadable for you? And what use-flags/DVB_CARDS do you have enabled?
Comment 6 Alan Hourihane 2007-06-26 09:39:09 UTC

DVB_CARDS is not set
Comment 8 Matthias Schwarzott gentoo-dev 2007-06-26 11:17:23 UTC
Well, then the bug was solved, as it was only about file tt_Premium_217g.zip, but you found another one not being downloadable.
So reopening this bug.

Btw. setting DVB_CARDS to the cards you really need significantly reduces amount of downloads.
Comment 9 Patrick Kugler 2007-08-22 22:15:16 UTC
Seems this is the correct location:

Comment 16 José María Fernández González 2008-05-11 15:17:58 UTC
It is more or less offtopic, but, could you add af9015 firmware in the next update of this package, please? Its URL is http://www.otit.fi/~crope/v4l-dvb/af9015/af9015_firmware_cutter/firmware_files/4.95.0/dvb-usb-af9015.fw

Also, it can be extracted using af9015_firmware_cutter over latest Afatech Windows drivers. The URLs are:

Comment 24 Graham Young 2008-12-15 10:13:39 UTC
AverMedia say they do not support the Linux drivers for their AverTV DVB-T 777 card any more. I have found, however, that it works perfectly well with the mt352, saa7314, saa7134-dvb modules, provided the dvb devices are set up first.
I have this working with kernel 2.6.26-gentoo-r4 on an AMD 64 X2 dual core BE-2350 processor.

I have set this DVB_CARDS in make.conf and on the CLI, does anyone else have this behaviour?  I'm on ~amd64.

Try my new ebuild.
Comment 29 Daniel Pielmeier gentoo-dev 2009-07-29 18:56:36 UTC
Every firmware mentioned here should be available from the ebuild at bug #275667. Only exception is tda10045 from tt_budget_217g.zip. Looks like there is no download location for it anymore thus it has been removed from the ebuild.

Comment 33 Flavio 2009-08-28 12:07:12 UTC
Same problem trying to download Drv_2.11.02.zip.
Is there any other location where I can get it?

Best Regards,

Comment 34 Daniel Pielmeier gentoo-dev 2009-09-02 21:29:56 UTC
Everything should be fixed in linuxtv-dvb-firmware-2009.07.06. If you experience fetch issues for some firmwares please try again at a later time and only open a new bug if the problem remains.

Yes, this still happens actually:
The die message:
 *   File dvb-fe-sp8870.fw does not exist!

Note that I manually downloaded each required file up to now, browsing the Internet, but I still can't find that firmware.

I'll try again later on.

Anyway, if I try to use the attached ebuild, it stops at the beginning:
