Hi Kids!
Time for a new adventure. I would like to have a working firewire camera input for manipulation in Gem on a linux box that is sitting here purring at me. The cam works fine with Kino and dvgrab, so the linux-firewire connection is all well.
But I am having no luck with pix_video or pdp_v4l. The main problem seems to be that (apparently) recently the naming conventions in debian and possibly linux in general were changed. So there is no more /dev/video0 for the v4l mode, and for pix_video trying to work directly with ieee1394, I get complaints that /dev/ieee1394/dv/ host/PAL/in "Is a directory".
Has anyone had more luck? Do I need to going from stable to testing in some parts of debian? Do I need to use some special somethings?
Looking forward to the d'Oh moment,
Tim
