OK I've got the file:

michael@carter /lib/firmware $ ls v4l-pvrusb2-73xxx-01.fw
v4l-pvrusb2-73xxx-01.fw

It's still giving me the same errors though:

michael@carter /lib/firmware $ dmesg | grep pvrusb
pvrusb2: Hardware description: WinTV HVR-1950 Model 751xx

pvrusb2: V4L in-tree version:Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-USB2 MPEG2 Encoder/Tuner
pvrusb2: Debug mask is 31 (0x1f)
pvrusb2: ***WARNING*** Device fx2 controller firmware seems to be missing.
pvrusb2: Did you install the pvrusb2 firmware files in their proper
location?
pvrusb2: request_firmware unable to locate fx2 controller file

missing.
