Trying to install ivtv-0.2.0-rc3i

dmesg | grep ivtv
(snip)
ivtv: Autodetecting cardtype for card #8
ivtv: SGarray_size = 420, DSGarray_size = 16
ivtv: Found an iTVC15 based chip
Firmware image too large '/lib/modules/ivtv-fw-enc.bin'
ivtv: failed loading encoder firmware
ivtv: Error loading firmware!
ivtv: Error initializing.
ivtv: Error -12 on init
ivtv: iTVC15/16 mpg2 encoder card: probe of 0000:01:07.0 failed with 
error -12
ivtv: loaded

I looked in mythtv lists archive and google only to get frustrated.
How can I solve the above regarding 'firmware too large'.

Also, I get this error:
ivtvfwextract.pl: Can't open /root/tmp/ivtvex.7522/hcwpvrp2.sys: No such 
file or directory.
