These two "firmwares" are also needed, right: - v4l-cx2341x-dec.fw : CX23415 decoder part - v4l-cx2341x-init.mpg : decoder initializer Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC15 MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01) Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc. WinTV PVR-350 Are there any technical or legal issues for all these firmware files not to be included downstream within "linux-firmware" package, with the rest of firmwares? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in
