I also have a Sony digicam, which is connected to my system via a firewire card.
To use it, via firewire, I modprobe'd video1394, ohci1394, raw1394 and ieee1394. All were with standard woody install (later dist-upgraded to testing) and no kernel recompile was needed. I have used both dvgrab and kino to grab video from the camera. They work "ok" but not great; in fact, I noticed an increase in frame-droppage for unclear reasons when I went from stable to testing, but I'm not sure why. I'm not sure how you would do the same via a usb connection if that is what you are using as I've never looked into that. nl On Sat, 2003-08-30 at 12:19, Benedict Verheyen wrote: > Hi, > > > i bought a Sony DCR-TRV60E camera.
