Re: libdv1394, Senior Design Project

I guess we can use that... But now, I guess my question is, how do I 
separate the stream into frames? We need to send that output into a part 
of the program that processes each frame individually... I think I'll 
have to write this code because we are running two cameras at the same 
time, and we have to keep track of the frames to keep the video in sync.

Where can I find information on how to translate a DV stream into 
individual frames?

Thanks!
