Scott > well, I don't know how to solve this, but this bug has to be solved one way or another. Currently, most users will not be able to use their DV camera on Ubuntu.
From an end-user point of view, it's exactly the same as an USB camera : you plug it, you should be able to access it. It might not be raw access but Kino (and any other video editing tool) should access it. Unless an user can access it, this bug is *not* fixed.
By closing this, you will only have more and more duplicate.
(note : I've never said that the fix has to happen in udev or anything. I just want to point out that users cannot access a DV camera under Ubuntu and that's a (big) bug )
