ok i've been searching for hours and i don't even remember anything i've read anymore, so i'd like to hear some suggestions as to why i can't get my firewire card to capture video from my camera.
when i run dvgrab i get "Error: no camera exists"
when i run kino, i press capture and it times out waiting for my camera to start playing, which it is.
cinelerra crashes as soon as i click on "Record"
it obviously sounds like the card isn't recognizing the camera, or the system isn't recognizing the card. thing is, i have two firewire inputs, one PCI, and one on-board. both produce the same result.
i needlessly tried a modprobe but i got a big fat "failed", which didn't surprise me, as the modules have been built-in and apparantly loaded at boot, according to dmesg.
any suggestions?
also, i was able to capture on (*gasp*) windows, so i know the camera works.
im running 10.2, and 2.6.16.11.
