I have a Sony DCR-TRV525 Digital Video Carmera with a Firewire (i.Link)
I have TRV25. And I have been able to grab video in my Debian Sarge machine using kino. And I did a bit of editing using Cinelerra. I then made a DVD image and burned that onto a DVD in my Sid machine, with menus and all. It was pretty cool.
output. I have installed an AVerMedia DVD EZMaker 1394 PCI card (#33 in CARDLIST.saa7134), compiled a Debian 2.6.8 kernel with Firewire support with the raw1394 module and video4linux with the saa7134 module.I have tried running dvgrab but it does not find the carmera even though it is powered up and connected to the AVerMedia DVD EZMaker 1394 PCI .
If I recall correctly, there was something I had to do with setting the permission of /dev/1394 so that it was accessible by the video group.
lspci reports FireWire (IEEE1394): Lucent Microelestronics FW323 (rev. 61)
I have exactly the same card according to my lspci, so you shouldn't have any problems.
lsmod reports saa7134, video_buf, i2c_core, ir_common, and raw1394. I would appreciate any suggestions or leads I should follow up.
Search for "camcorder permissions ieee1394" in google groups and you will find my post. If you need further help, just reply here again.
