Is it possible for the FS100 to record a signal from a Firewire web cam?

Colin McFadden October 3rd, 2006, 09:13 AM It's doubtful. First off, I don't think the Firestore puts out power on the firewire connector. Even if it did though, most webcams (like the iSight) don't output DV video. They're IIDC devices, and use a different protocol that the Firestore wouldn't know about. Matt McEwen October 3rd, 2006, 01:21 PM Colin is exactly correct. These cams will not work. Matt Dean Sensui October 4th, 2006, 06:33 PM Colin and Matt... Thanks for the info. Anmol Mishra August 26th, 2007, 09:38 AM Any ideas what might work. Perhaps a Linux-based IIDC recording software on a tablet PC that has 1394a (Firewire 800). Hmm. Any ideas if a tablet does have Firewire 800 ?? |
