Re: [Ekiga-list] Problems with firewire capture

Hi,

Unfortunately, ekiga 2.0 is an old version we do not work anymore on. 
And the dc and avc plugins cannot be compiled anymore on current 
systems, so they are not provided anymore.  So you are in a difficult 
situation...

Just an idea: Have you tried with v4l2?
