[PD] 1394 firewire video capture with pdp + linux

[Yves Degoyon]

errr,

i thought that one was clear :
there's no pdp_ieee1394 for linux
and the reason is i don't have a linux machine
with a firewire card and a DV.

pdp_v4l is not designed to work with ieee1394.

you have the alternative of using Gem for your capture
and the gem2pdp bridge.

cheers,
sevy
