  1. What: dv1394 (a.k.a. "OHCI-DV I/O support" for FireWire)
  2. Date: May 2010 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.37
  3. Contact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
  4. Description:
  5. /dev/dv1394/* were character device files, one for each FireWire
  6. controller and for NTSC and PAL respectively, from which DV data
  7. could be received by read() or transmitted by write(). A few
  8. ioctl()s allowed limited control.
  9. This special-purpose interface has been superseded by libraw1394 +
  10. libiec61883 which are functionally equivalent, support HDV, and
  11. transparently work on top of the newer firewire kernel drivers.
  12. Users:
  13. ffmpeg/libavformat (if configured for DV1394)
