The V4L API in itself does not support any IEEE1394 (also known as FireWire or i.LINK) devices. However, in the case of some devices, V4L applications can obtain access to video via ieee1394, using either a loopback or LD_PRELOAD method.
via Loopback
- V4L with ieee1394 camcorders:
- using DV4Linux's dv4l
- using dvgrab and dv2vloopback
- V4L with ieee1394 cameras:
- using Coriander
via LD_PRELOAD
- V4L with ieee1394 camcorders:
- using DV4Linux's dv4lstart
