Hi, I just joined this list. I have run Linux on and off since about 1995, but the past few years have been running NT more often than anything. Since I recently got a DV camera and want to run it through the Pinnacle Studio DV card I got, I had three choices. Install Win98 over the Win95 partition I have and reboot when I need to use it, install Win2k over NT since it supports firewire, or start running Linux again. Linux has come a long way since I was using it and I really want to get back into it anyway, plus I was excited to see your project. So, I will be trying this out soon. I am running Debian 2.2r2. What software are you guys using for this? I want to be able to make video files (probably mpeg) out of parts of DV tapes. Thanks. -Ken -- ha...@he... AIM: ScopusFest |

Do you have the drivers installed and working yet? Some of the Pinnacle cards (DV300 I know) use Adaptec 5800 chip, which we dropped support for. See http://linux1394.sourceforge.net/links.html There are not a lot of choices under Linux, and I believe we have listed all of the worthwhile ones. In addition to dvgrab, Kino, and Broadcast 2000, you can split a video into frames and batch process them with GIMP. Kino is for editing and preserving the quality of video. Broadcast is for creating compressed MPEGs. +-DRD-+ Ken Weingold wrote: > > Hi, I just joined this list.

It seems that it is LV23/LV03 based. Is this the type of chip? I found this at <http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/2711/2000/8/0/4173767/>. Does this answer your question? I haven't installed it yet. I just got it today in the mail. -Ken |

Yes, that is the very popular TI OHCI chipset that is stable under Linux. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ken Weingold" <ha...@he...> To: "Dan Dennedy" <dde...@co...> Cc: <lin...@li...> Sent: Tuesday, December 12, 2000 1:49 AM Subject: Re: hello > On Tue, Dec 12, 2000, Dan Dennedy wrote: > > Do you have the drivers installed and working yet?
