Hello ALL...

I have installed kdenlive on kubuntu 8.04.
So far can work although no fully...
What this installed is no crashed as I read on release note because I have update the kernel into higher version.

But, now I've got real problem:
I cannot capture dv raw from /dev/raw1394.
I have checked that kernel module raw1394 loaded, /dev/raw1394 also exists.
I also have chmod /dev/raw1394 to 777 permission...

Well, I hope somebody can help solve this problem...

Thanks.

First, try to guess if you are using the old or new firewire stack.
Then load the modules, then reboot.
Then as root enter dvgrab -i to see what is going on.

If you get that you usually have a fairly low level compatibility problem between FireWire hardware, BIOS, kernel, cable, and device. So, the easiest thing to do is try a different cable or test the device with another computer.
