Hi
I'm having a little trouble figuring out how to connect my video camera
and my laptop via FireWire.
I have installed and loaded following modules:
linux:/home/sem # lsmod|grep ieee
ieee1394 96384 2 raw1394,sbp2
linux:/home/sem #
But Kino cant find the camera, although there is a little indicator in
the cameras display saying that dv-in is connected ? I've tried to do an
chmod 777 on /dev/raw1394 without any luck.
try dvgrab
try kino and dvgrab as root only as a test
if this doesn't help and no one else gives the answer, shout at me on the
weekend sometime and I will try and pull out a machine with firewire and a dv
camera and test some things for you. Right now we are in the middle of
renovations and things are packed away.
Can anyone help, thanks in advantage.

all the best,
