I was thinking of an external device with analog input and 1394 output. My laptop has a 1394 port. Ah, yes. They do exist: <http://www.firewire-1394.com/canopus-advc55.htm>. But (1) I was hoping to pay about a quarter of that, and (2) I still don't understand the Linux side of it -- although it seems like it shouldn't be a problem; I'm assuming I can use a generic 1394 video capture driver, whereas USB would be device-specific. There is a v4l driver for 1394, I hope? -- video4linux-list mailing list Unsubscribe mailto:video4linux-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list
