              Sorry, I can't help you. Doesn't mean someone else on this list can't
              though. Good luck.

              (You might try finding a command-line tool that can do the job and use
              python to script that. Or look for a C lib that does it and wrap
              that...)

              Peace,

                  You can try http://videocapture.sourceforge.net. The web page focuses on
                  USB webcams, but if it's using a standard XP interface (like DirectShow or
                  WIA), there's a good chance it will drive your 1394 camera as well.
