I have 24xxx hardware, but cannot find my installation CD. I tried using fwextract.pl on the pvr24xxx_30_24062.exe contents downloaded from Hauppauge's site, but it didn't recognize it. I, therefore, am left to manual firmware extraction.
I finally got the v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw and v4l-cx25840.fw files via usbsnoop (you might make a note that program doesn't work with laptops - at least mine. I spent a lot of time wondering why my log file never got above 2600 bytes before I moved the rig up to my desktop). Worked great.
Now, I am trying to extract the FX2 firmware from the router. I send the "cpufw fetch" command followed by the ">/tmp/fx2.fw" command. But, the latter just keeps going. fx2.fw keeps increasing in size without bound.
I am using the in-V4L version compiled with CONFIG_VIDEO_PVRUSB2_DEBUGIFC enabled. Is there something you'd have me try here, or am I going to have to go with the standalone? If the standalone, is there going to be any problem already having the V4L version already installed (and that's what I want to use in the end)?
Thanks.
