Hello Armin,

Just one quick note on this: generally speaking, you should *never* be
renaming firmware files.  If it asks for 1.10, you need version 1.10.
There are often code changes that are based on the firmware version.

You can get 1.10 from here:

 http://www.wi-bw.tfh-wildau.de/~pboettch/home/linux-dvb-firmware/dvb-usb-dib0700-1.10.fw

Or, you can install the latest v4l-dvb code with the directions at
http://linuxtv.org/repo, which will then result in the driver using
the 1.20 firmware.
