No need, I managed to get it working if I use a PCI-to-PCIe adapter card. Very
strange, it won't work in the PCIe slot of my motherboard, but using the PCI slot
and that adapter it works fine.

It's good that it was tested since the menu control creation code was wrong.

One thing that is very confusing to me: I have this board:

[ 1878.280918] CORE saa7164[0]: subsystem: 0070:8900, board: Hauppauge WinTV-HVR2200 [card=5,autodetected]
[ 1878.280928] saa7164[0]/0: found at 0000:09:00.0, rev: 129, irq: 18, latency: 0, mmio: 0xfb800000

[ 1878.327423] saa7164[0]: Hauppauge eeprom: model=89519

but the default firmware with size 4919072 fails to work (image corrupt), instead
I need to use the firmware with size 4038864 (v4l-saa7164-1.0.3-3.fw).

For that I have to patch the driver.

Do you have an overview of which firmware is for which board?

There are a bunch of firmwares here:

http://www.steventoth.net/linux/hvr22xx/firmwares

but there are no instructions or an overview of which should be used.

I faintly remember asking you this before, but that's been a long time ago
and I can't find it in my mail archive.

I'm willing to do some driver cleanup and fix v4l2-compliance issues, but
I'd really like to fix this firmware issue first.
