Re: [GnomeMeeting-list] Using Firewire Camera with Audio Input.

[Alan Sill <Alan Sill ttu edu>]

If you are using a Mac, you can use the excellent and compatible 
ohphoneX from the Xmeeting project (xmeeting.sourceforge.net), based on 
the openh323 and pwlib base that supports GM.  They are working on an 
opal-based new project as well, so future compatibility seems likely.

I've used this with an iSight and can get both audio and video through 
firewire that way.  Haven't tried a miniDV camera, but that has a good 
chance of working also, based on this.
