        "mpg1394" (?)  This is regualar DV, (although some is 16x9 format).  I
haven't seen the "mpg" in mpg1394 before.  Is this a program?

        I have no directory /dev/raw .  I do have a file /dev/raw1394 .

        I did chmod the /dev/raw1394 to 666.  No difference.

        You mean the camera when you say "JVC?"  There is nothing on the camera
that I can set to "auto."

        DV is all the camera can do.  either at 4x3, or 16x9 .

        Again, no camera settings for this.
