Hi, To solv your problem, just do it: as root, create the device drivers for the IEEE1394 subsystem mknod -m 0666 /dev/raw1394 c 171 0 mknod -m 0666 /dev/video1394 c 172 0 mknod -m 0666 /etc/udev/devices/dev/raw1394 c 171 0 mknod -m 0666 /etc/udev/devices/dev/video1394 c 172 0 load the apropriated device modules (ieee1394, ohci1394, raw1394, dv1394, video1394) Get Kino, Cinerella or another video editing software to test you digital video editing system. Here, I've a Canon MV750i working fine with Fedora Core 3 and Kino/Cinerella/GAIM-VV,GNOMEMeeting...
