Not really, no. Sarath worked on webcam capture for summer of code. But DV 
capture is a little different. We haven't thought much about it.

PiTiVi uses gstreamer for all its media handling, and I believe there's an 
ieee1394 source element for that. It's mostly a UI problem (as is everything 
with PiTiVi). We need an interface for controlling capture, adding sources to 
the library, naming said sources. Do we want auto-split-scenes or not? Other 
things to think about would be exporting back to dv, managing batch captures, 
and "reconforming" to different resolutions (where, for example, all the 
original sources in a project are replaced with high-resolution versions from 
the same media).

Seems like it would
