The latest PKGBUILD is not installing dvb_driver_si2157_rom50.fw and dvb-demod-m88ds3103c.fw even though they are present in the archive.

linux-firmware-hauppauge and hauppauge-wintv-quadhd-firmware need to conflict with each other (and check if linux-firmware-hauppauge can have added hauppauge-wintv-quadhd-firmware to the provides array):

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
/usr/lib/firmware/dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw exists in both 'linux-firmware-hauppauge' and 'hauppauge-wintv-quadhd-firmware'

Regards and thanks for maintaining!

Ignore my previous comment about the firmware file being corrupt. Apparently the issue Im seeing is due to specific HW version of the 2250 needing a patch manually applied per the instructions on the cards linuxtv.org page. This package is still currently the only source of the 03 and 04 version of the NXP7164 firmware.

It seems that the version of the NXP7164-2010-03-10.1.fw included in Hauppauge's package is broken. A version of this file should be in the openelec-dvb-firmware aur packages but it seems that there is some issue with how those packages are being built and the file is not getting installed. This needs to be resolved manually. I will try to update this package to include a working version if I can find a good source.

I should also note, the way to confirm for sure if your device needs one of the firmware files supplied by this package is to check your dmesg output for an error about a missing dvb firmware file and to check the name of the file the system is trying to find with the list of files in the PKGBUILD file.

If your Hauppauge capture device is listed under the "Firmware Install" section of the page linked as the Upsteam URL then you will need the additional firmware files supplied this package. A few of these firmware files are also supplied by other capture device firmware packages. You can remove the install lines in the PKGBUILD file before building for a clean install or override the files during package installation since they should be identical.
