Hi,
you probably want to visit
http://www.schirmacher.de
- a site that has pointers to IEEE1394 (Firewire) Video capture/editing
tools for linux.
I wouldn't know why 1394-based video does not have the same status in
the V4L domain as USB-based video feeds. Both are serial buses ment for
connecting high-bandwidth consumer gadgets to your PC, and most USB
webcams provide video in some JPEG-compressed format anyway.
Anyone?

or at least the answer to the question: "what typically needs to be done to
control and capture from a firewire based camera under linux?" I feel a bit
like a tourist dropped off at the bus station in a foreign country: I know
where I want to go, but I don't know what direction to take to get started.
Some specific background:
camera: Sony TRV-30
firewire card: either a port on a soundblaster Audigy [currently installed]
or a three-port "pyro" card [no room to install, I think, but if push comes
to shove, something can be dropped (like the haupphauge card)]
software: SuSE 8.2 distribution [and a DSL line to get "whatever"...]
This system works under win98SE using Adobe premiere 6.01, so I know the
hardware is capable
