Please add firmware for DVB-T AverMedia AVerTV Volar Black HD (A850)

Hello,
would it be possible to add the firmware for DVB-T A850 in next OSMC release ?

I’ve downloaded/copied it manually to “/lib/firmware/” and it works great.
Here is the log:

osmc@osmc:~$ dmesg | grep dvb
[ 4.249065] usb 1-1.4: dvb_usb_v2: found a ‘AverMedia AVerTV Volar Black HD (A850)’ in cold state

[ 4.420368] usb 1-1.4: dvb_usb_v2: found a ‘AverMedia AVerTV Volar Black HD (A850)’ in warm state
[ 4.803460] usb 1-1.4: dvb_usb_v2: will pass the complete MPEG2 transport stream to the software demuxer

[ 4.837174] usbcore: registered new interface driver dvb_usb_af9015

Again thank you for your excellent work!

The firmware file is located at :

I’ve been using it for two months without problems

Thank you to the whole OSMC team for the excellent work!
