Hi,I'm a newbie when it comes to firewire, in fact I have never had it working because I never had a device to connect. Then recently I bought a Canon MVX200 (PAL) video cam. But when trying to transfer the video using fwcontrol as described in the man page I get:
charm# fwcontrol -R test.dv (EAGAIN) (EAGAIN) fwcontrol: unknown format 0x1eI have asked on the list before, and on other lists as well as searched google with little luck. Eventually some indicated it may be the brand since he had had bad experiences with other Canon hardware. The cam was returned within the 15 trial period I had.
I then bought a Sony HC39E but get the exact same error suggesting that the problem is in the other end. According to the hardware list my firewire chipset is supported.
Please, any hints on how to solve this will be highly appreciated. Thanks, Erik Debug stuff follows: System: FreeBSD charm 6.0-BETA4 FreeBSD 6.0-BETA4 #0: Tue Sep 6 21:16:56 CEST 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 dmesg:fwohci0: <Ricoh R5C552> mem 0xe5800000-0xe58007ff irq 11 at device 10.2 on pci0
