Equium A100-299: Firewire (IEEE 1394) port is not recognized

I have a new A100299.
It seems that the firewire port is not recognized. Is there any software or driver that is not installed? Or what can I do?
Regards
U Molin

Hi
What do you mean with not recognized? Did you check the device manager and there is a yellow exclamation mark or what?
In my knowledge the Windows XP uses the own firewire drivers and you dont need to use any 3rd party drivers to enable the IEEE1394 port.
As I said above, please check the device manager if the port is listed properly. If there are no yellow exclamation marks everything was installed properly.
By the way: Did you reinstall the OS?
If yes how did you install it? Did you install the chipset utility.

How to connect a DV camera through the IEEE 1394 port on my A50?

Hi
I have been trying to connect a video camera to my notebook SA50-109 throught the IEEE 1394 port.. but the notebook didn't recognize the camera at all..
although the camera shows 'DV-in' when i plug the cable witch is (4-pin to 4-pin) DV cable..
is there any thing I need to do before to make it work?
any ideas.. please?

Hi there. Your PC should recognize automatically the DV camera. It's OK to have the firewire (1394) connection shown under "network connections". Next to mine it says "connected" although the harddisk connected to it is switched off. Maybe there is something wrong with the cable? Or, another suggestion, try to restart the laptop while the camera is connected ... Not many further suggestions I'm afraid ... Good luck!

I am using IMovie 11 with a new iMac. Unable to import video from a Panasonic PV-GS400 mini-DV camcorder using a Firewire IEEE 1394 400 cable connected to a Firewire 400 to 800 adapter which is then connected to a Thunderbolt to Firewire 800 adapter.

How can I get iMovie to recognize my Panasonic PV-GS400 as a device so I can import video to my iMac? I have a FireWire IEEE 1394 400 cable connected to the camcorder. Since my new iMac has only Thunderbolt ports, I purchased a Firewire 400 to 800 adapter to connect to the cable. I also purchased a FireWire 800 to Thunderbolt adapter to connect to the computer. My camcarder is still not recognized.

I would suggest that you try a 9 pin to 4 pin Firewire Cable along with the Firewire to Thunderbolt adapter.
Those Firewire 400 to 800 adapters do not seem to work well with iMovie.
The 9 pin to 4 pin cables are available at reasonable prices here, for example.

Firewire IEEE 1394: Capture Card vs. On-Board Motherboard

I should know the answer to my question, but I don't...really. To capture video in my current computer, I had to install a video capture card with an IEEE 1394 Port. It is my understanding that there are motherboards that have "on-board" IEEE 1394 Firewire. If I purchase such a motherboard, does that mean I will not need a video capture card? In the specs of motherboards they will give the number of available IEEE 1394 Rear Panel Ports. Do these ports connect to "on-board" firewire and can they be used to capture video? Please set me straight. Thanks.

I agree with Neale. One consideration is the number of controller chips you have on either the MoBo connections, or your card.
Why is that important? Especially with Capture from a camera, it is always best to ONLY have the camera hooked to a separate controller chip. Some MoBo's and cards, might have multiple connectors, but they may all feed through a single chip. That might well preclude having any other FW device hooked to any of the other connections. Sometimes, it's tough to tell the number of IEEE-1394 chips, unless one has a good schematic of the board/card and the various chips are shown.
If one uses other FW devices, then the chip count will likely matter. While I have 4 MoBo connectors w/ 2x chips, I also have a multi-chip 4x connector card, plus a multi-chip 6x FW-1394b (FW-800) card.
The two things that you wish to avoid is daisy-chaining ANY camera, and connecting a camera to any shared chip. If I had a card already, and did not need to include it with the old computer, and had a spare slot on the MoBo, I'd install it too, but then I usually have 4-6 FW-800 externals, plus maybe 4 FW-400 externals, and still have empty chips available for my camera.
Good luck,
Hunt

X300 - IEEE 1394 Port

Hello-
I would like to transfer digital video files to my X300. I need to transfer the files via an IEEE 1394 cable but I believe my X300 only has USB ports. Can I transfer files with an adaptor or can I add a IEEE 1394 port to my laptop? Thanks.

Welcome to the forum!
That's a difficult to handle task since the X300 doesn't have any firewire port or an express card slot. To my knowledge there aren't any plain USB-2-FireWire adapters/converters available on the market and AFAIK the Lenovo enhanced port replicator, as most other third party USB based port replicators here too, also doesn't offer any firewire connectivity.
You have to search on the internet for any possible intermediate device, like maybe a possible USB-Firewire HUB (there is one available from Belkin, but that's primary for MAC Minis etc. since those have FireWire ports and so unusabel for you) or some sort of third party port replicator.
If there isn't any such HUB or replicator based device with a FireWire port available, you have to use another way (a detour) like storing your video files on some NAS (Network Attached Storage) or external HDD with a USB and Firewire ports and then transferring the files later from the NAS or external HDD etc. to your X300.
Hope this helps at least a little bit to clear up the very limited possibilities. Good luck!

Solaris 10 x86 Firewire (IEEE 1394) camera frame grabbing

How do you do frame (sequence) grabbing from Firewire (IEEE 1394) camera on Solaris 10 x86? What API can I use?
XIL documentation doesn't seem to mention Firewire cameras specifically. And I tried to compile Linux libdc1394 on Solaris 10 x86, but got errors.
Thank you.

Hello Mark,
these forums are user-to-user.
If you work for Caen Engineering, Inc. I would strongly recommend that you contact Sun directly as an OEM.
Unfortunately you didn't mention the particular blog you referring to.

Qosmio G30: Sony MV cam doesn't work with IEEE 1394 port

Qosmio G30-117 doesn't support my Sony DCR-IP5E (a micro video cam) through ieee 1394 port. I have tried to use pinnaccle studio 9 and ulead video studio 10, but I couldn't see my cam through these programs.
There is no problem if I install a new win xp media center edition (retail pack) and the drivers from CDTOOLS. But I want to use my factory setup of Qosmio,I don't want to buy a new win xp media center edition.
How can I resolve this problem?
Thanks everybody.

Hi,
I had the same problem with my Sony-Handycam. It is not a problem of the Qosmio but of XP SP2 and the new driver for msdv.sys.
Workaround to bring this driver back to SP1 (please follow instructions strictly):
You need msdv.sys from a SP1. It may be on your computer, if it was installed with SP 1 before.
Otherwise, you have to get it from someone else.
Remove Camera from Device Manager, if it has been shown anytime (look also for hidden devices)
Reboot in secure mode (F8 while starting) and login as admin.
Navigate to \Windows\Driver Cache\i386. Find the file "driver.cab" and open it.
In the cab find "msdv.sys" and expand it to your desktop. The version must be less than 5.3.2600.2180.
(If you installed native XP with SP2, you have to use the file, you got from someone else instead)
Copy the files in this folders, if available:
Windows\system32\drivers
Windows\system32\dllcache
Windows\LastGood\System32\Drivers
(Maybe you want to rename the original files before)
Change to Windows\Driver Cache\i386 an search for sp2.cab.
Rename it to sp2.old and reboot.
Your camera should work now.
If not, change the file avc.sys in the same way. You will find it in sp1.cab or have to get it from someone else.
I solved the problem this way on my last notebook and on my qosmio.
greetings

Suddenly drop in communicationrate from both USB ports and IEEE 1394 port

Hi
Lately my HPE-432sc Pavilion computer (Win 7, 64 bit) behaves strange when I try to communicate (i.e. copy) huge files via (all) USB-ports or the IEEE 1394-port to external units (USB-keys or External harddisc).
The copy process start with normal speed but then after 20-30 seconds the speed drops with a factor of at least 10....(and the copy-process terminate correct eventually!)
All drivers are up-to-date and the units performs correctly according to the device manager.
Any suggestions?

Well, you can just count the pins, but I'm sure it's a 4-pin. See this illustration:

Ieee 1394 port for HP G60-127NR Notebook

Does the HP G60-127NR Notebook PC come with an IEEE 1394 port? If not, how do I add one? It has a 5-in-1 reader.

You may have exceeded the available power capacity of the USB ports in your notebook PC too many times. That can result in non functioning (forever) ports. That is the specific reason that I recommend only using externally powered USB hubs.
You can check the current carrying capacity of the USB ports and see how much they are using via the device manager.
Open Device Manager and then right-click a USB root hub. Select properties and then the Power tab.
This particular system has many ports available.

Interface Not Found Error when Using Snap Example for Firewire (IEEE 1394)

I just recently installed a SONY XCD-SX910 to interface with Labview 8.2. When choosing the driver, only the Legacy driver would work for the Firewire(R) (or IEEE 1394) installation. After installing the driver, I successfully acquired images from the MAX inteface. However, when attempting to trace through the 1394 Legacy Snap Example from the IEEE 1394 installation document, I am receiving the error "Interface Not Found". I have tried a few iterations attempting to name the camera such as "cam0" (the name assigned to the camera in MAX) and "cam0 : SONY XCD-SX910". However, the error persists.
What should I name my camera for it to find the interface? Is there another underlying problem that is not obvious?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Is the Legacy Snap example you are referring to the one that is seen here: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/2977? Can you post screenshots from both Measurement & Automation Explorer and the VI you are trying to use? Also, can you verify in Measurement & Automation explorer that you are using the 1394 driver? You can do this by right clicking your camer and the selecting driver and choosing the appropriate one. Some more information on all that you are seeing would help in order to troubleshoot this.
