[MacDV] DV port on camcorder found

[Kunga]

Pardon my French Gary,
But why did you put us through all that HELL for nothing? There is an  
iLink LOGO right next to the regular ordinary 4 pin FW socket. Thanks a  
lot for all that abuse I had to take. Next time have all parts with you  
so you know what you are communicating is accurate. Your own photograph  
shows the iLink LOGO and it is not proprietary at all. It does NOT look  
different that any other 4 pin FireWire connector.
