I have own a dv/hdv camera and works perfectly (with dvgrab), in the past I had no-software issues :
* I have a canon a1 xh, i had to switch to hdv next to the firewire port. * A faulty cable (4pins cable with six pin convertor), i bought a new fireware card believing that the hardware was not supported, but ended up using only the new cable. * Sufficient rights on block device I have used this camera with hardy and use it now with jaunty.
