Bug Description
Binary package hint: dvgrab
$ dvgrab -a tape-
Error: no camera exists
Solved by doing:
$ sudo chmod -v a+rw /dev/*1394
$ dvgrab -a tape-
Error: no camera exists
while the camcorder is well connected.
This issue is not new, had the same with Kubuntu 9.10. The same hardware (PC and camcorder) was working fine in previous version of Kubuntu (I don't remember which one exactly, but it used to work).
Thanks for your help.

They say that the issue comes from the driver, not from dvgrab.
