Hi Dominik, my bet is that camera1394 pkg does not know how to correctly interpret the stream from Videre cameras. Since there was a question on how to get it going with this particular camera not so long ago, could you please check and try it first: http://n3.nabble.com/cameradc1394-and-stereo-images-td210461.html#a210461 Shall it not work please report back. cheers, D.
