I tried Kino, but it doesn't detect my camcorder either. The problem seems that the 
ieee1394 support in the kernel (2.4.20-4GB-athlon) doesn't work with the nVidia 
interface. I followed the HOWTO from <http://www.linux1394.org/start_test.html>.
But testlibraw doesn't find any node:

@pc2:~/gscanbus-0.7.1> testlibraw
successfully got handle
current generation number: 1
1 card(s) found
  nodes on bus:  0, card name: ohci1394
using first card found: 0 nodes on bus, local ID is 0, IRM is 63
 
The gscanbus program reports:
"Error while reading from IEEE1394: : Resource temporarily unavailable
something is wrong here"

So I figure my ieee1394 isn't working with Linux (yet) :-(

Question: Is there any video data format in which I can capture under Windows which I 
can read under Linux (I think I read something about "dvraw")?

Thanks
        Sven
