Here is my small program that emulate a Tape Recorder/player unit : http://www.chez.com/kayle/IEEE_1394/virtual_vcr_0.0.1.tgz It can only recording data using another program like dvgrab or capture. This program handle a small set of commands sent to a Tape Recorder/player and send responds. This make believe other computer that there is a Tape Recorder/player on the bus, so they can output iso data. TO USE IT you have to : 1. Change the ROM of your IEEE 1394 driver : see file ROM. 2. Rebuild the driver. 3. "insmod" the new driver and launch the Virtual_VCR program. 4. You can see if it work by using gscanbus : it will show a VCR instead of a terminal. HOW TO BUILD Virtual_VCR : Type "make" You can test your virtual VCR if you use another computer. I am using an iMac DV with iMovie, both belive that my PC-linux is a Tape Recorder/player. And I can record movie from the iMac using dvgrab or capture. --- Franck Bonin http://www.chez.com/kayle/IEEE_1394/virtual_vcr_0.0.1.tgz --- Andreas Micklei a écrit : > Hi, > > On Thu, May 11, 2000 at 04:11:07PM +0200, Franck > Bonin wrote: > > So I have tryed to transform my PC-linux in an > > TapeRecorderPlayer and > > today I have succeded, by re-writing the > ohci_csr_rom > > located in the ohci1394.h file. > > That is great.
