I find the line "dv1384 Device" now appears in my Preferences, although the AV/C Device pulldown is still empty; when Kino begins I see

>> Starting Editor
>>> dv1394Writer::dv1394Writer /dev/raw1394 channel 63 fd 6

Unfortunately the Capture page carries a warning that the

dv1394 devices is not loaded or failure to read/write /dev/dv1394

it is loaded:

dv1394 20664 0
raw1394 29400 0
ohci1394 34096 1 dv1394
ieee1394 95544 4 dv1394,raw1394,sbp2,ohci1394

Syslog says

[128306.656557] NOTE: The dv1394 driver is unsupported and may be removed in a future Linux release. Use raw1394 instead.

crw-rw---- 1 root video 171, 32 2008-05-27 08:13 /dev/dv1394/0
crw-rw---- 1 root video 171, 0 2008-05-25 19:04 /dev/raw1394

I also tried a+rw and tried running this new Kino as root, same result.

While on the Capture page the kino logging keeps printing

dv1394 INIT ioctl: Invalid argument

I then set the Preferences dv1394 to /dev/dv1394/0 (because it seemed logical that the dv device should be the dv device) and the controls on the Capture page became un-greyed, except for the AV/C, but when I tried starting my camera and clicking Record, the camera was playing back video but Kino timed out waiting for a signal.
