Hello, First, don't worry, your 1394 system seems to be installed fine. Your sony camera is a Digital camera, following the dc 1394 specifications from IEEE. dvgrab works with dv based devices such as dv video recorders. These devices use a Dv format to transmit video and audio on the 1394 bus. Moreover, they are compliant with the AV/C standart in order to control them from an other devices on the bus. gscanbus recognizes AV/C devices and provides some control possibilities (play/stop/pause). but gscanbus does not recognize digital cameras. I have the same camera which works fine with libdc. Libdc is a great (i really think so) library in order to control all camera features (zoom, iris, gain,....). If you have a look to the link section, you will find the libdc homepage (at sourceforge). If you have a look into the archives of this list (last week). you will find samples to acquire frames using this library. have a good firewire !! -- ___________________________ Thierry CHATEAU, Lasmea, UMR 6602 du CNRS 24 Avenue des Landais, 63177 Aubiere, France tel : (33)4-73-40-72-56 http://chateauthierry.multimania.com "Tout ce qui n'est pas donne est perdu".
