[Ti] Firewire and DV recording

[Yuta Hsu]

I've my DV cam hooked up to my 120GB external FW drive hooked up to my 
Ti400 and have had no problems capturing video.  My only hurdle is the 
speed at which my lil' ol' Ti400 can preview and render (DVD Studio Pro 
runs a little s-l-o-w), but the actual capturing happens with no 
issues.

And to add to it, I actually have the HD hooked up to a FW hub that's 
hooked up to my Ti400.  Yes, I do have that many FW devices (iSight. 
iPod, LaCie d2 DVD+-R/W, Predator CDRW, DV cam, 120GB HD).  I have to 
say that the Belkin FW Hub works quite well!

Good luck!
Cheers,
Yuta
