Re: [Playerstage-developers] firewire cameras

[Paul O. <new...@ki...>]

Hello Toby,

I have one at work, it's ImagingSource DFG 41F02. I can test it in Monday 
iff no new tasks will find me there then. The problem with this camera is 
that all programs (including coriander) compiled against libdc1394 2.x 
cannot detect it! To make things more complicated, on x86_64 
machine captured image is all green. So I'm still keeping some older 
32-bit Xeon HT machine just for grabbing live image from this camera.
Fortunately, I can still compile libdc1394 1.x and camera1394 can detect 
this fact. Unfortunately, patch need to be applied (it's on a tracker now) 
due to small bug that prevents old API code from being built.
