[ale] OT: MiniDV camera -> DVD

[cfowler]

Marty,

I have a question for you in regards to the Firewire DV.  I just
purchased the camera and the book mentions something about a Firewire DV
capture card.  Is a special Firewire card required?  Are you getting a
good FPS and resolution with your setup?

Thanks,
Chris
