How easy is it for an RB coder to auto-detect and download from a

Any pointers welcome.


At best, it is not too hard assuming MacOS X or Linux here). Probably you could read from the device file /dev/someFileName . To do so, you'd need to declare to libc, as FolderItemOpenAs* does not work for such files. It depends on the driver, though; reading video input in Linux has been causing me some pain lately. For MacOS X, you might also be able to use IOKit or something like that to read from the device.
