hi,
yep, you're right, it's not directly compatible but i meant, a camera you can plug on a video 4 linux device ( http://home.t-online.de/home/gunther.mayer/bttv/bttv-gallery.html ). there's a nifty usb adaptor at the bottom of the page ( Provideo PV-321C ), i'd like to get one soon .
of course, it would go through analog conversion.
this chapter is quite interesting for me because i must do a capture object for mac osx and there's no video 4 linux on OSX.
so, Gem is supporting ie1394 capture on all platforms ? it is digital capture through firewire? does it work good or do you need a fast machine to cope with the bitrate ?
we might do a pdp_ie1394 object, but what about usb cams then ? how do they work on OSX ?
i kinda of ignorant in the DV field actually because we mostly use USB webcams.
thx for enlighting me, sevy

might be an option, but any DV which is video 4 linux compatible should work with PDP ( pdp_v4l ).
correct me if i am wrong, but i never have heard of a ieee1394-device that is supported by v4l.
i'd really love it. (would save a lot of time i already spent (and still have to) for the videoDV4L code in Gem)
