DV camera by Firewire not working with Seesmic (or with Flash in general...)
WARNING: it appears this problem is not specific to Seesmic, but rather has something to do with Flash Player - I'm posting it here because you guys might be able to do something oin configuring the Flash part of the app, and also because Seesmic is the only place I want to use this feature!
I have a miniDV camera (Panasonic NV-GS27) which I connect to my notebook by Firewire. I can use this camera just fine to record into Windows Media Player or Adobe Premiere. However, I cannot use it to record video in Seesmic - it is listed in the drop-down selection list, but selecting freezes the recording area for a while and then just show black and no record button. I have tested this with Firefox 3 betas 3, 4 and 5, IE 7 and 8 and Flock 1.1. Flash version is 9.0 r115.
In researching this, I have found the following links that might be relevant to developers (they weren't to me.....):

Anyone else with problems like this? I'd love to use my external DV camera with Seesmic, it would be so much better... I have chatted with other Seesmic users about this, and other people seem to use their DV cameras normally. Is this specific to my camera, or to a version of some of the pieces of software on my machine?

Inappropriate?Thanks Mik, and yes, I suspect it's something specific to my system, as it doesn't work in other services as well, such as Youtube, and no one else has mentioned it in Seesmic....
