It would not matter, because the driver reloads the firmware
every time you reload the driver.

a hardware problem.

Either that or you have a cabling or grounding problem.

First make sure that there is a signal that goes into
your DVB-s card: If you have a d-box or at least an
analogue receiver, move your sat cable from the dvb-s
card to the standalone receiver. You might also want to
try the signal strength measurement software that has been
posted here.

If you do have a valid signal, try to record something
blindly. Does that work? If yes, your card's video output
or its cabling might be broken.
