SPDIF To Firewire (IEEE 1394 ) Conversion

Is such a thing possible? What about AES/EBU to firewire? I have a portadat I want to get into FCP 7.

I didn't check it out but googling "SPDIF to firewire adapter" produces a number of hits.
Also google "AES/EBU to firewire".

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.

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.
A quick search ("Solaris firewire") on blogs.sun.com returned the following blog entry from January 2006

HT3204 This is wgat my coputer said after running diagnostics on it: Connection attempt to firmware update server was unsuccessful.An unknown error occurred (-9808).No FireWire (IEEE 1394) Host Controller found.

When I run the diagnostic on my computer this is what it says: Connetion attempt to firmware update server eas unsuccessful. An unknown error occured (-9808). No fireWire (IEEE 1394) Host Controller found. What should I do so that I am able to update and restore my ipod?

In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?

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

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.

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.

HT1695 No FireWire (IEEE 1394) Host Controller found.

So my sons Ipod is giving this error message after I ran the diagnostic?
Any possible way to restore the Wifi on his device?

If you do not have a firewire controller on your computer the diagnostics will say that. However, firewire was only used on early regular iPods, not iPod touches.
Thus, that is not your problem.
Please provide more information about your problem.

How to plug a firewire ieee on a macbook pro 17

How can I plug a firewire IEEE on a macbook pro 17?

I have a MBP 17".
I have also a Minolta Multiscan with a Firewire IEEE 1394 cable.
I cannot use it on the MBP as it is a Firewire 800 but after looking into the solutions on the net, I figured out I need an adaptor from Firewire IEEE to Firewire 800...isn't it?
Yes, you'll need a FW 800 to 400 cable. The device will run at FW400 speed. Here's one example: http://www.amazon.com/LaCie-FireWire-Cable-130849-Orange/dp/B001NXDQAY

Recommendations for IEEE 1394 PXI/cPCI card??

Hi. I'm looking at the PXI chasis as my DAQ interface. I need to connect a consumer camcorder (via Firewire IEEe 1394). Are any outside vendors that have a card compatible w/ NI hardware and LabVIEW?
Regards,

SP A10: XP SP2 and Maxtor IEEE 1394: Need MS Hotfix?

I have a Satellite Pro A10 hooked up to a external Maxtor 80Gb disk on a Firewire/IEEE 1394 link.
The IEEE 1394 is attached to a PCMCIA card (from Belkin) which uses the NEC 1394 chipset.
There is a Hotfix available from Microsoft (see http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;885464) but MS Support say this can only be sourced through Toshiba Support.
Can you help me obtain the Hotfix?
Without it I can rarely access the drive.
It works fine on my Tecra M2 which accesses the same drive through it's built-in 1394 interface. The problem only occurs with 1394 chipsets from NEC.

Hi
Well, did you contact the Belkin support?
In my opinion you should ask the PCMCIA card manufacturers for the upgrade or this hotfix. Furthermore you can check the Toshiba drivers download page for this hotfix. The Microsoft hotfixes are called QFE. Maybe you will find the right one. But unfortunately, if you are not able to find this one, you have to wait for the next Windows XP service pack that contains this hotfix. :(

My macbook's mini displayport is actually a IEEE-1394 Firewire port..

I jut got a mini displayport to DGA cable today and pluged in to my macbook but no signal to the external monitor.
I took a good look at the side of the macbook, and the mini displayport (supposed to be) has a mark of IEEE-1394 Firewire simble on top of the port.
left next to this port has a monitor simble but it is a different shape (got a longer tung).
Can any one tell me what is wrong?
By serching the web, they all say (and all look like) the one I pluged in is the mini displayport.
I'm panicking....

Glad I could help. Here's the EveryMac page on your MacBook if it's a White 2.1Ghz. http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook/stats/macbook-core-2-duo-2.1-white -13-early-2008-penryn-specs.html

Can I link my two laptops using IEEE 1394 (Firewire)?

Hi,
I have a X31 and a X60 laptop. Both are running on Windows XP Pro and both have IEEE 1394 (firewire) ports.
I seem to read it somewhere that I can do a network link between two laptops via the firewire ports.
However, it does not work for me after linking them with a firewire cable.
Am I missing something?

Am I missing something?
You have to configure the IPs on the both side as with any other network adapters.
Alternatively you can set the internet sharing to the fireware adaper, on one side only so the pc with internet shared will acts as DHCP server and the other will atutomagically configure itself with a correct IP.
