Package: dvgrab Version: 3.1-2 I've tried to get dvgrab in Lenny to fetch DV video from a Panasonic NV-GS230 camera, without luck so far. The camera claim to be able to stream DV over USB, but dvgrab is unable to fetch any frames.
I used the following command line: dvgrab -V --input /dev/video0 -f raw foo The camera was in recording mode. The program report that grabbing is started, but when I terminate dvgrab a few seconds later it report that no frames were found, and no foo file is created. The camera is set to use "Motion DV" in USB mode, whatever that means. I did find a program capable of dumping information about the V4L2 device, <URL:http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/v4l2-formats.c>, and it reports this: /dev/video0 is a V4L2 device named 'DVC' /dev/video0 is capable of video capture /dev/video0 is capable of streaming capture /dev/video0 supports 'SD-DV 50Hz' (compressed format, V4L2_PIX_FMT_DV) I also tested with the version 3.2 in unstable, and this one work. Please update the one in testing with the one in unstable, to get a version working with USB included in Lenny.
