Is the software a standard IEEE 1394 based software like coriander, dvgrab, kino or the likes, or is it a generic software like skype etc., or is it a custom software written by yourself? Is the software accessing the kernel through a library or framework (libraw1394, libdc1394, gstreamer, dv4l, ...)? -- Stefan Richter -=====-===-= -==- ---=- http://arcgraph.de/sr/ |
