This implementation uses a library of CMU 1394 Digital Camera Library. http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~iwan/1394/ This implementation is tested on MinGW (mingw-get-inst-20110802.exe) Known limitations: - a lot of functionalities are untested. Please participate in the effort and report bugs on the mailing list libdc1394-devel@lists.sf.net. - the timestamps normally available in each dc1394video_frame_t are NULL on windows. The CMU driver does not return this information yet, because they have problem to get it from the Windows kernel (google/grep for DESCRIPTOR_TIME_STAMP_ON_COMPLETION).
