33 | When: November 2006 | 33 | When: June 2007 |
34 | Why: Deprecated in favour of the new ioctl-based rawiso interface, which is | 34 | Why: Deprecated in favour of the more efficient and robust rawiso interface. |
35 | more efficient. You should really be using libraw1394 for raw1394 | 35 | Affected are applications which use the deprecated part of libraw1394 |

42 | What: dv1394 driver (CONFIG_IEEE1394_DV1394) | ||
43 | When: June 2007 | ||
44 | Why: Replaced by raw1394 + userspace libraries, notably libiec61883. This | ||
45 | shift of application support has been indicated on www.linux1394.org | ||
46 | and developers' mailinglists for quite some time. Major applications | ||
47 | have been converted, with the exception of ffmpeg and hence xine. | ||
48 | Piped output of dvgrab2 is a partial equivalent to dv1394. | ||
