What:		dv1394 (a.k.a. "OHCI-DV I/O support" for FireWire)
 | 
						|
Date:		May 2010 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.37
 | 
						|
Contact:	linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
 | 
						|
Description:
 | 
						|
	/dev/dv1394/* were character device files, one for each FireWire
 | 
						|
	controller and for NTSC and PAL respectively, from which DV data
 | 
						|
	could be received by read() or transmitted by write().  A few
 | 
						|
	ioctl()s allowed limited control.
 | 
						|
	This special-purpose interface has been superseded by libraw1394 +
 | 
						|
	libiec61883 which are functionally equivalent, support HDV, and
 | 
						|
	transparently work on top of the newer firewire kernel drivers.
 |
