The camera connects via a usb port. USBview shows it being connected &
disconnected. When connected it shows as /proc/bus/usb/002/014 which is
a document size 57 bytes but apart from using gphoto2 I can not get a
file listing.

It appears that gphoto2 can not download avi files over a certain size.
After browsing google it appears that the problem may be restricted to
my Canon S1 IL camera
Is there another app which will handle avi downloads from this camera?
It must not use libgphoto2.
Can you simply connect the camera as a mass storage device and then copy the
files in your favourite file manager?
See above, I can not find it elsewhere in the directory tree. Should it
be mounted.

does dmesg show a scsi device ( /dev/sda for example ) being attached? If so,
try mounting it on /mnt and seeing what's there.

Some cameras are usb mass storage, some are not. If the camera works
with gphoto2 then its likely not to also do USB mass storage.
This camera is PTP, no mass storage.
What is the maximum size Barry?
I have transferred 2 files of 39905kb & 85925kb (1 minute) ok now. The
larger 1 failed yesterday (computer overloaded???). Another over
100000kb failed. The error msg indicates incorrect syntax but this is
misleading as it worked for the 2 avi files and jpg files
The 2 relevent lines from dmesg are:
usb 2-3: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 3
usb 2-3: USB disconnect, address 3
I don't have a card reader, it would be worth trying for a large avi
file. No problems with jpegs.
And have you tried a card reader? It will plug into your USB port and
it _will_ provide a method of mounting the filesystem on the card. Some
printers have card readers, my HP PSC 2210 reads SD, MMC and CF cards
just fine (albeit a little slowly over USB 1.1)
Also, what apps are available for editing movies?
