Ok, my take (not a full review since that's already started, just a few
additions/confirmations)

1. there is a lot of legacy garbage in the spec (symlinks, deps, epochs, etc).
ivtv took enough time to get cleanly upstream, IMHO the supporting packages need
the same cleanup too. Cleaning up later will be painful and users expect some
changes at Fedora inclusion time

2. URL should be http://www.ivtvdriver.org/

3. I'd simplify %install in
%install
rm -rf %{buildroot}
install -d -m 0755 %{buildroot}/lib/firmware
install -p -m 0644 *.fw *.mpg %{buildroot}/lib/firmware/

4. I'd simplify %files in
%files
%defattr(0755,root,root,0644)
%doc *.txt
/lib/firmware/*.fw
/lib/firmware/*.mpg

5. I'd add a %build, even if it's empty, because %build-less specs are not
tested against @rpm.org

6. I'd change the summary to only include the actual chip reference and out the
full "… for hardware based on Conexant's CX23415/CX23416 codec chip such as the
Hauppauge PVR 150/250/350/500 models and other supported hardware." in
%description, as the current string is misleading and overly restrictive

7. the deps if any should go in the tools not in the firmware package
