> Ummm...ok. Is the unit in "vcr" mode now when it generates the spewage? Yes, vcr mode. I only tried camera mode twice, once many months ago with 6.x, and once a couple days ago with 7.0. > Are we worse or better than when we started? :) Well... I found a few things in fwcontrol that could use improvement, most of which have been fixed. I found that the NEC appariently isn't getting reset/initialized sufficiently. I found that NetBSD has ported FreeBSD's fw support and thus now works with camcorders. On the other hand if I want to upload data from the camera I now have to move the cable. I still don't know exactly what messed up the NEC, and the VIA still doesn't work properly with -S. > >> This seems a strange way to use your camera to me > >> > > > > Strange how? > > > It's strange to me that you don't have any applications other than fwcontrol > to pull and push files from your camera. I figured cat and dd probably wouldn't work. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-firewire To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
