Capture DV via USB
My Sony DV camera does not export via firewire, only composite cables and S-video cable. Do you know of a linux app that will capture DV via the USB?
I purchased a composite-to-USB cable along with the software for 10 bucks, but it's for XP, not linux. But now I do have the composite-to-USB cable. Any linux app I can use to capture DV from my Sony via the USB? thanks |
You might want to look at the sisusb driver.
These links might help: http://forum.doom9.org/archive/index.php/t-77883.html http://www.winischhofer.eu/linuxsisusbvga.shtml http://www.kinodv.org/dcforum/dcforu...&topic_id=1023 http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/ |
Thanks. Lots to digest.
I have dvgrab installed, but can't run it. ?? It's not listed under Applications > Sound & Video, and I can't start it from a terminal. It is located in /usr/bin. Looks like it might do the deed, but can't run it. |
Well, duh......
A friend pointed out that my camera DOES have a firewire port. Guess I should get glasses :-)
But it's odd that the user's guide didn't mention firewire. Oh well. So... Which PCMCIA card should I get for my Dell laptop? I'm running Ubuntu Intrepid. I've seen cards for wireless, but haven't seen any that are for firewire. Anyone using a firewire card on their Dell lappy? R- |
