Title:
  No DV firewire control of Sony DSR-PDX10p camera

Status in kdenlive package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: kdenlive

  I can not recognise or capture DV video from the professional Sony DSR-PDX10p DV DVCAM using the firewire connection.  I am using a TOSHIBA Satellite Pro computer (I know but it works well).  I know it is not the PC or the camera because I booted to Windows XP (PC is set up to dual boot to Lucid Lynx 10.04 and Windows) and the camera works perfectly under Windows.  I like Ubuntu a lot and want to leave Windows.  All I do is edit film and animation and Ubuntu has been great for this.  Great design and I am more creative with the super written software.  I hope someone will be able to solve the bug and cheer me up.
  I think the firewire Ieee1394 worked on the last release prior to Lucid?  I´m trying hard to stick with Linux as I know it offers so much more so I hope a solution can be found soon.  My answer at present is to use Windows, capture the DV material then transfer it to Ubuntu by portable Disk.  I hope this bug report helps you.

  Um.  I am using Kdenlive 0.7.7.1-0ubuntu1  also DVgrab?  KdenLive tried hard...but no luck.
  I think PiTiVi video editor is a fab little program by the way - well designed and I like the direction it is heading.
  Can I control the DV camera from PiTiVi? Very very intuative and conceptually simple.  I hope the philosophy continues.  I am an artist not a programmer but enjoy technological advances if they work well for the common man.

  Thank you.  :-)
