Firmware is not delivered with Kernel. You can download various firmware 
version from, but newest is the best. If you need remote and you have 
problems with remote you can test older ones.

Yes, it is only file usually in /lib/firmware/

According to attached log it does not lock to the 722000000 MHz. Could 
you try tzap -r "3FM(Digitenne)" and then mplayer /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 
from other window whil tzap is running. tzap should inform if it locks 
and also some signal values.
There could be many reasons why it does not lock, most typical a little 
too weak signal. Is there any other stream in same frequency which works?
