But ... despite pleas for help, pouring through the wiki, I have a problem that at boot time the mythtv service fails to start because the firmware has not yet been loaded. It does start manually after boot.

So what must be a common problem has no offers of a solution, and the wiki is rather bad saying "do this, trust me" so when it does not work well you are up-the-creek-without-a-paddle

and

Wants=dev-dvb-adapter200-frontend0.device
After=dev-dvb-adapter200-frontend0.device

Where on earth do the names come from?
