 # echo "PORTDIR_OVERLAY=/usr/local/portage" >> /etc/make.conf

 # mkdir /usr/local/portage/app-misc/pvrusb2-firmware

 # emerge pvrusb2-firmware

You should now have firmwares installed into /lib/firmware

Simply replugging the device or reloading the pvrusb2 module should
initiate loading of the firmwares.

*Note: I have only tested my 29xxx and not the newer 24xxx Models!

(I am using Version 26c firmwares for 29xxx models and the latest
Version of firmwares for the 24xxx models.  We seem to be missing
firmwares for the latest firmware release. If you have problems with
your 24xxx model, please email me!  In the meantime, default to
fwextract.pl.)

Enjoy the Movie! ;-)
