I have, and get nothing but errors with the firewire_tester script,
whether I use the p2p or broadcast. test-mpeg2 gives me 0 byte size
files. I tried using the channel changer script also, which told me
it could not find a 6200 box on the firewire port (something to that
effect, I am not sitting in front of the computer). That was my first
clue that something was screwy with my firewire, and led me to check
dmesg to get the above-mentioned error log.
I do know that this firewire port is working. On a prior install
using this exact same box (I just wiped it out and started new), I was
able to *periodically* get captures via firewire. Now I can't at all.
