Great work on this XBMC implementation. I have a raspberry pi I am trying to make into a mediacenter+PVR and XBian seems to be the answer. I have a Hauppauge WinTV 950Q and a N10 Wifi adapter. I have played with this on and off for more than 1 year and could never get everything working. I decided to try again, got almost everything running after some trial and error with installing TVHeadend. The last problem I have is that the dvb-fe-xc5000-1.6.114.fw driver is not working properly maybe???. Seems I have the same adapter as for this post and same problem. TVHeadend scans but does not find any services. Signal stays at a stubborn 0% and the LED that usually comes on when "tuned" to a channel always stays off and it stays cold.

1) lsmod shows that xc5000 is loaded after I boot.
2) I manually start tvheadend and I get the following errors:
xc5000: waiting for firmware upload (dvb-fe-xc5000-1.6.114.fw)...
xc5000: Upload failed. (file not found?)

So I am thinking that it is a driver/kernel issue. Especially that the file is not in /lib/firmware. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My system:
XBian 1.0beta1.1
Kernel 3.9.8+ #preempt...
Raspberry Pi 512 MB
4GB Sd card
Asus N10 Wifi adapter
Hauppauge WinTV 950Q

This is the last piece of the puzzle
Thanks

--- EDIT ---

I have managed to get it to work by copying the driver in the /lib/firmware directory. The problem now is that I get some errors and can only tune in to a channel once in a while. According to what I have found by searching the net this could be an issue with the hub.
