Digital Video Camera On linux = no!

But I just spent the equivalent of a week getting software working on
Win98 - Studio DV Plus or something, which was sold through Harvey
Norman. Lets just say that unless you want to bleed a lot of blood, why
bother. The worst part was the customer then told bloody Harvey Norman
how to fix it - bastard! Digital Video on Firewire is bleeding edge -
wait another year. Unless of course you are developing something.


Webcams - yep, there is a page under the linux resources page on the url
below.
