[Ekiga-devel-list] ekiga 2.1.0 svn. No output from webcam (avc1394 mini-DV camcorder).

Hallo Group members.

Camcorder is connected to firewire. Camcorder works fine with linux (tested on dvgrab and kino).

problem description: ekiga displays green screen instead the picture from my camcorder (mini-DV sony dcr rtv 25E).

Kernel 2.6.23.8 produces error (dmesg):
raw1394: old iso ABI has been removed

There is link that describes changes:
http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/ABI/removed/raw1394_legacy_isochronous

To fulfill the description I checked if it works on kernel 2.6.22.X.

It works OK on kernel 2.6.22.1-32.fc6, I mean image from my camcorder is passed to ekiga.

But warning is displayed (dmesg):

raw1394: WARNING - Program "ekiga" uses unsupported isochronous request types which will be removed in a next kernel release
raw1394: Update your software to use libraw1394's newer interface

my system details:
fedora core 6.
ekiga: ekiga-svn from 2007-12-05
$ rpm -qa | grep 1394
libavc1394-0.5.3-1.fc6
libraw1394-devel-1.2.1-1.fc6
libraw1394-1.2.1-1.fc6
libdc1394-1.2.2-8.fc6
libdc1394-devel-1.2.2-8.fc6
libavc1394-devel-0.5.3-1.fc6
libdc1394_control12-1.2.2-8.fc6

In fact problem is both on ekiga 2.0.11 and ekiga 2.1.0 svn.

regards,
Pawel
