I don't know why it happens, but it has happened to me as well. It always was a problem when plugging a camera directly into the Firewire port on the PC. When I go into the DFG1394 and then into the Firewire port, everything is fine.
So, it's not just you. Sincerely, John -- John Toenjes Assistant Professor and Music Director University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Department of Dance 907 1/2 W.

I am coming across a problem I am hoping is easy to fix. Once I have setup a DV stream and transmitting it, when I receive the stream it comes out all blocky. I have attached an image of my DV stream with my hand in front of the camera . This is the case for both versions made for AG2.4 and 3.0.2. I downloaded the latest version of DVTS and connected via multicast using DVTS interface and everything worked fine. I tried two different setups, one with our DV camcorder plugged directly into the WinXP computer, and the other setup of having a DV bridge and plugging the camcorder in via composite to the DV bridge and then firewire from the bridge to the PC. Could it be that this is due to a PAL issue? Or could it be due to a bug/previous version in DVTS when the ExtendedVideo was compiled? Has anyone else come across this issue? It would be great to get this resolved so we can use DV over Access Grid.
