Did that and now it works perfectly. I'd say that this a bug in kino,
since the firewire port should be autodetected imho (as it is in
dvgrab).

Also not nice in terms of usuability -- why do I need to restart to get
the changes in the preferences applied? Why aren't I told about the
restart in the preferences GUI?

Also, the help which pops up when I put my mouse on "raw1394 interface:"
says:
"This timing constant is used to determine how often to insert empty
packets (the lower the value, the fewer the empty packets)"

Is this a copy&paste mistake?

Dan, should I file bugreports for these or is having that it here
enough?

Still a very nice application :) (I archived the videos about my son
yesterday, thank you)
