Hi all !
I'm trying to read from two firewire DV cameras.
calling fwcontrol without arguments shows me three elements.
except EUI64 field, every datas (node, ...) change when I plug in or out a
device.
when I'm trying to read from my cameras' streams (using fwcontrol), I always
get the same stream, which is the one of the last camera I pluged in.
Reading the sources, I noticed you can specify your source in fwcontrol,
using option 'u'.
this option makes an strtol on the following argument, and uses it back to
open "/dev/fw%d.0"
so I looked my /dev, and all I got is fw0, fw0.0, fwmem0, fwmem-0.0
fw0 and wfmem0 are respectives links to fw0.0 and fwmem0.0
so, whatever i could ask, i'll always get the same source camera.
When there already is a plugged firewire device, I can plug in or out others
FW devices, without affecting my /dev.
How can I do to get all my FW devices associed to a file in /dev?
Thanks for your help.
Sorry for my english.
