Last night my friend and I went out and bought a $79 Digital Research firewire card at Best Buy. This card runs off the TI chipset which is OHCI compliant. I recompiled my kernel and got everything working, but I don't know what to use to view/convert the outported avi file from dvgrab. I tried using gvplay, but it crashes complaining about audio not being supported yet. xanim doesn't work either. Maybe someone knows of a converter program I can use to convert the uncompressed avi to a mpeg2 or regular mpeg? Here's the specs of my setup: Digital Research IEEE-1394 4-port card (3ext, 1int) Canon XL1 Digital Camcorder AMD K6-3 450 128MB RAM 1GB free on this computer, but will be using a 36GB drive NFS mounted later for storage. Sound Blaster Live! Value with pretty new open source drivers. The IEEE-1394 will eventually go in a nicer computer with an 18GB SCSI-3 drive and probably dual-processors. I want to be able to use Broadcast 2000 to generate movies with eventually... If there's any other information that might be needed such as the actual chipset model number on the IEEE-1394 card please ask. Right now I'm either thinking that the avi file was created correctly and I haven't found any programs that can read it yet, or the XL1 isn't fully supported yet and I can try and help you guys out with adding support.

Hey, if you got an avi file at all you're doing better than I did last night (but I need to upgrade my kernel from 2.2.13 to 2.2.14. It recognizes the card but can't get a handle on anything attached). Since you got further than I did I'm assuming the problems aren't with the 1394 stuff. I did find that xanim (didn't try gvplay) is picky about its AVI files, it wouldn't play the AVI capture I did off of xawtv either. (Didn't like 24 bits/pixel format.) It might be simplest to try transferring the file to a Windows system (or reboot if you have a dual-boot machine) and try it in Media Player. (Just for testing, of course, you wouldn't want to do that all the time.) -- Alastair |

Hi~ It's a simple reason. because, there is no public DV decoder in linux. ----- Original Message ----- 보낸 사람: "Bryan Stillwell" <ar...@ve...> 받는 사람: <lin...@li...> 보낸 날짜: 2000년 4월 12일 수요일 제목: dvgrab > Last night my friend and I went out and bought a $79 Digital Research > firewire card at Best Buy.
