> AFAIK there are three methods to connect a
|
|
video camera to a laptop: a ZV port, FireWire and maybe USB,
|
|
but I don't know how this works with Linux. I have
|
|
heard rumors about using a sound card for video
|
|
data transfer to a Linux box, see

. I have heard rumors about a
|
|
Linux-QuickCam-mini-HOWTO, but couldn't find a
|
|
reliable URL yet. Check the <B

package which is build for scanner support, this
|
|
should contain support for still-grabbers as well.

provides a graphical interface for controlling
|
|
Kodak Motion Corder fast digital cameras over a
|
|
serial connection. kmc_remote is built on the
|
|
kmc_serial library, part of the kmc_utils
|
|
package. kmc_remote provides a virtual button
|
|
panel and simple one-touch commands for changing
|
|
system variables which would involve multiple
|
|
button operations on the real camera button
|
|
console. Buttons, record settings (image size,
|
|
record rate, shutter speed, trigger mode, burst
|
|
mode), and playback rate control should be fully
|
|
functional. All camera models are supported, as
|
|
well as both PAL and NTSC video.
