Hi Mihai,

There is a perl script  get_dvb_firmware that downloads the firmware and 
extract it (from the Windows driver I think). You need a version of 
get_dvb_firmware where this has been added:

+sub drxk_hauppauge_hvr930c {
+    my $url = "http://www.wintvcd.co.uk/drivers/";
+    my $zipfile = "HVR-9x0_5_10_325_28153_SIGNED.zip";
+    my $hash = "83ab82e7e9480ec8bf1ae0155ca63c88";
+    my $tmpdir = tempdir(DIR => "/tmp", CLEANUP => 1);
+    my $drvfile = "HVR-900/emOEM.sys";
+    my $fwfile = "dvb-usb-hauppauge-hvr930c-drxk.fw";
+
+    checkstandard();
+
+    wgetfile($zipfile, $url . $zipfile);
+    verify($zipfile, $hash);
+    unzip($zipfile, $tmpdir);
+    extract("$tmpdir/$drvfile", 0x117b0, 42692, "$fwfile");
+
+    "$fwfile"
+}
+

Do a git checkout of the linux-media tree to get it (I think).

Also, before I found the perl script I did it "manually" using:

1)

wget http://www.wintvcd.co.uk/drivers/HVR-9x0_5_10_325_28153_SIGNED.zip

2) unzip it

3) extact it with dd [0x117b (hex)  =  71600 (dec)]:

dd if=HVR-900/emOEM.sys of=dvb-usb-hauppauge-hvr930c-drxk.fw bs=1 
skip=71600 count=42692

4) copy it to the firmware dir

cp dvb-usb-hauppauge-hvr930c-drxk.fw /lib/firmware/'
