Happily, the DN-300 came back from the dead and is currently
converting and recording S-video to DV again, though it somewhat
fickly to get mounted "HDD enabled" via Firewire to Linux :).<br></div></blockquote></div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">\o/ I hope box will remain undead for at least as long as needed for all works and tests :)</div><div dir="auto"><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">I can say
with 100% certainty that here we have never tested
FIREWIRE but I did notice that the CV contributors did add
"ifdef FIREWIRE" in a few of the .C programs which
conceivably means that it can be built with the
capability. However, I guess I do not understand why you
would want this option since you stated:<br>

Now when the M2T and DV recorder in the middle is dead, I have to
transfer the files directly from the camcorder/player to the Linux
