There's a little trick that you could use: Quartz Composer can use the HV20 properly, so probably you could create and use a Quartz Composition as a fast workaround. I couldn't do it because the kind of software I'm involved with, but can you?

Irony: kineme.net specializes in QC Plugins ;) (the project I'm working on is in fact getting 2 HV20's to work simultaneously in QC). It can capture from one, or the other, but not both at the same time. the built-in video input patch only lets you select one (a Cocoa/AppKit bug), and our revised patch (unreleased) allows you to select both, but when both are activated one camera never gets its capture callback called. I wanted to make sure I wasn't making some silly mistake to cause this, but it appears now that it's a QTKit issue :/


Sounds familiar. It's probably rather a looooooooooooooooooooooooooong standing sequence grabber skeleton in the closet, still around after QTKit rebranding. IIRC for some internal reason you could only access one DV cam for video in - for everything else you'll have to resort to third party code (e.g. starting with libdv).

No. This is no longer the case. QTKit can differentiate between different dv devices and record from distinct ones, assuming you've got the bus bandwidth.

The archives seem to have digital amnesia, I'm rather confident this was already regular topic in the last milennium.
