I'm not sure what you're asking, but the package maintainer doesn't have a setup that would need any firmware nor has access to one and nobody has reported any related issues before this.

I don't see anything in VDR's documentation or sources that would refer to any firmware paths, so the thing saying the above is probably the DVB driver you're using. I just sent a patch to the DVB mailing list that might improve the related messages and docs a bit. > Does anyone have a ready working channels.conf for DVB-C in Helsinki? Will send you mine in PM.
