The only support is that which is available through avformat, if it works. I have not tested it. At one point I was playing around with v4l support through the avformat producer, but then it broke in order to support more important things. I do not think the current architecture of MLT lends itself well towards this because it has no good way currently to split up input, demux, and decoder. We are fortunate that ffmpeg provides such good support for these things as a bundle. So, I suppose the way forward is to improve ieee1394 support in ffmpeg/avformat. There is a dv1394 input format in ffmpeg, but not for output.
