#Adding custom firmware to HAOS

Hi, I'd like to use one of the tvheadend plugins (https://github.com/dfigus/addon-tvheadend) with a specific tuner that requires a firmware not available by default in HAOS. Even after reading all the related issues in the addon's repo and beyond, I can't get it working.

Could someone land a hand please?

I have the firmware copied and the boot command configured as suggested in #312 (comment)

ls /mnt/boot/firmware/

dvb-demod-si2168-d60-01.fw

cat /mnt/boot/cmdline.txt

console=tty0
firmware_class.path=/mnt/boot/firmware/

after rebooting HA, the tvheadend container's dmesg still shows:

[ 277.262207] em28xx 2-2:1.0: DVB: adapter 0 frontend 0 frequency 0 out of range (48000000..870000000)
[ 277.265013] si2168 11-0064: Direct firmware load for dvb-demod-si2168-d60-01.fw failed with error -2
[ 277.265020] si2168 11-0064: firmware file 'dvb-demod-si2168-d60-01.fw' not found

The device shows up in the TVHeadend UI, but all Mux scans fail.

I posted my issue as a discussion on the addon repo too: https://github.com/dfigus/addon-tvheadend/discussions/537

Anything you add like that will disappear the next time you update HA.
