HOW????

If you have multiple sound devices, then choose DirectX audio output and tick the advanced options and under Output modules -> DirectX use output device and choose your firewire device (there are only numbers, so you have to use trial and error to figure the right one).

I didn't fix audio because, i don't see video.
i use minidv camcoder as firewire device
when i use it in vrc mode, the application DVApp from directx 9 sdk can output videofile on it

I have such variants in Settings->Preferences : Video->Output modules->DirectX
"Name of desired display device" : Default,display,\\.\DISPLAY1

I think that is "display,\\.\DISPLAY1" is my videocard.

If anybody know how make firewire output of vlc for any OS, please tell me.
Sorry for my english

IIRC VLC can't output video via Firewire, so you have to use another program.

what does it mean iirc vlc, may be vlc for other os can make firewire output?
or can you tell me can i modified code of windows vlc for firewire output feature
where is corner of vlc windows developers

(informal) If I recall correctly

If the device can be setup as a drive with a drive letter and accessible through Windows Explorer, VLC can use it.

you mean if firewire device have letter in exlporer than i can use it instead display?

It doesn't work. Copying video over firewire ain't same as file copying. So no go with VLC.

it may be off top, but i want to ask can i do firewire output for vlc in linux. for example by pipe vlc to dev1394.

http://www.linux1394.org/faq.php#DVtransmit
for Linux, so my guess is that just piping the video won't work.

I compiled vlc 0.9.0
and there is in tools->extended setings->Video Adjustments and Effects such
fields: Vout filters, Video filters, Subpicture filters

May be here I can insert dshow filter
i don't know how, but i think that dshow filter can be stored at file_name.ax

help me what means "Vout filters" ? Сan it be output dshow filter?
And if so where is Audio_out filters?

Can you tell me what you are trying to do?

i just try direct video and audio to dv without rewriting vlc code.

My guess is that it ain't possible without writing a code, because VLC only uses internal stuff, so external codecs/filters won't work. But if you want to code yourself, you could ask sourcecode and maybe help from dev of WinDV.
