Can someone enlighten me how the ports on firewire card function? I have only one device that is using firewire (DV Camera) so I can test only on single port.
I installed the ieee1394 card, it has two 6-pin ports and one 4-pin port. I have connected the Digital Camera to one of the 6-pin ports and I couldn't make it to work with "kino", but I tryed the second port and it worked. I was under impression that ieee1394 cards would work the same as USB-ports; regardless which port I plug my device into it will just work, not so with ieee1394 cards. How do I control (if at all) which port I need to plug the device into and how are they numbered? I have "coldplug" installed, so I think the ports are initialized automatically and the second port will not be initialized unless something is plugged into port number "0" (first one), am I correct? In other words, Is there a special order I need to plug the devices into ieee1394 card? In "kino" under settings there is IEEE1394 "tab" and has an option "raw1394 interface" option that is set to "0" I've tried setting it to "1" but it didn't work. -- #Joseph -- [email protected] mailing list
