Hi Daniel, Thanks for responding....:) I am currently swimming through the ocean of the ohci1394 iso_tasklet interrupt mechanism. I suspected ohci_iso_recv_program would be the candidate who interrupts Video1394....but so far unlucky.:( Ok, let me tell you some details. Going through some messages in libraw forum, I came to know that kernel is holding the packets (for almost 8ms in my case) and interrupts the user space application only after some delay (8ms)...I am trying to determine whether that is true. The reason for this digging is, I have a setup where Windows outperfroms Linux...in capture time. The Windows posts pulse at 8ms compared to theoritical 6 ms. Unfortunately Linux gives me 14ms and I am baffled to see that. Just for ur information, in the setup, I am using 2 Basler A602f cameras with external trigger. The setup has Linux Kernel 2.6.19.2 (earlier tried with 2.6.15), libraw1394-1.2.1, libdc1394 2.0 rc3 and rc4. gcc 4.0.3, Distribution Ubuntu 6.06. The aperture is close to 600us. I am using DC1394_COLOR_CODING_MONO8 colour coding, Format 7, Video Mode DC1394_VIDEO_MODE_FORMAT7_0, image size 320x240 in both Windows and Linux. The speed is 400Mbps, and bytes per packet 2048. Warm regards, Kiran.
