Kino with Samsung SCD103

I've had frequent problems importing video over firewire from my SCD103 DV camera. Today I think I found a definitive solution. Using Linux kernel 2.6.11 with the dv1394 module, I can get Kino's AVC controls to turn on and play, fast-forward, rewind, etc. I can't get Kino to start capturing from this camera by simply pressing the "capture" button, but it turns out that's not as big of a problem as I had previously imagined. The simple solution is to activate the AVC controls, hit the play button in kino, wait for the camera to start playing, then hit the capture button. No more iMovie for me.
