I believe one of the new things in the v4l code is that they have made
the Avermedia M150 use the standard firmware instead of the one your

cx88-blackbird: allow usage of both 376836 and 262144 sized firmware images

From: Michael Krufky <mkrufky at linuxtv.org>

This updates the cx88-blackbird driver to be able to use the new cx23416
firmware image released by Hauppauge Computer Works, while retaining
compatibility with the older firmware images.
