<FONT FACE="Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>I don’t know why it happens, but it has happened to me as well. It always was a problem when plugging a camera directly into the Firewire port on the PC. When I go into the DFG1394 and then into the Firewire port, everything is fine.<BR>

So, it’s not just you.<BR>

<BR>
Hi there,<BR>
<BR>
Been looking into the ExtendedVideoConsumer and Producer for Access Grid 2.4 & 3.0.2. I am coming across a problem I am hoping is easy to fix. Once I have setup a DV stream and transmitting it, when I receive the stream it comes out all blocky. I have attached an image of my DV stream with my hand in front of the camera . This is the case for both versions made for AG2.4 and 3.0.2.<BR>
<BR>
I downloaded the latest version of DVTS and connected via multicast using DVTS interface and everything worked fine. I tried two different setups, one with our DV camcorder plugged directly into the WinXP computer, and the other setup of having a DV bridge and plugging the camcorder in via composite to the DV bridge and then firewire from the bridge to the PC.<BR>
<BR>
Could it be that this is due to a PAL issue? Or could it be due to a bug/previous version in DVTS when the ExtendedVideo was compiled?<BR>
<BR>
Has anyone else come across this issue? It would be great to get this resolved so we can use DV over Access Grid.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Kind regards,<BR>
<BR>
