I'm running Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS and would like to use vrecord to capture from multiple DV decks at the same time. However, the application only sees one DV device when I have multiple devices connected to the system.

I've tried different combinations of devices without any luck: HVR-1500As, DSR-1500As, and DSR-40s.

I currently have two HVR-1500As connected:

vrecord01@vrecord01:~$ grep . /sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw*/*_name
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw0.0/model_name:DV-VCR
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw0/model_name:HVR-1500
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw0/vendor_name:Sony
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw1/model_name:Juju
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw1/vendor_name:Linux Firewire
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw2/model_name:Juju
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw2/vendor_name:Linux Firewire
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw3.0/model_name:DV-VCR
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw3/model_name:HVR-1500
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw3/vendor_name:Sony

But dvrescue only sees one:

vrecord01@vrecord01:~$ dvrescue -list_devices
0x8004602012c0faf: Sony HVR-1500 [DV]

Version info:
vrecord01@vrecord01:~$ dvrescue --version
DVRescue v.24.07 (MediaInfoLib v.24.06) by MIPoPS.

Please let me know if you need any additional info.

@archisysio thank you for reporting this. Would you mind installing the latest daily build of the DVRescue GUI and see if it detects the other devices or if you are getting the same result?

@libbyhopfauf You're welcome. Thanks for looking into it.

I'm getting the same result:

$ /usr/bin/dvrescue --version DVRescue v.24.07.20241008 (MediaInfoLib v.24.06) by MIPoPS.

$ /usr/bin/dvrescue --list_devices 0x8004602012c0fa5: Sony HVR-1500 [DV]

Please let me know if you'd like any additional info.

Please let me know if you'd like any additional info.

Just to clarify, for these results you had additional decks connected and these were detected by the computer? If so, is there a particular port that DVRescue seems to be recognizing? For the other decks are any adapters being used to connect them to the computer?

@archisysio Could you also check your Ubuntu permissions? See instructions here.

We're reworked the device detection code in the Linux backend, please test this snapshot

Apologies for the delayed response. Yes, I had multiple decks connected to the computer and they were detected by the computer.

I'm not sure about the port. I can test this if it would be helpful. However, at times dvrescue would report no decks.

No adapters were being used. I had a multiport firewire card installed and each deck was directly connected.

@libbyhopfauf : Unfortunately, I didn't have any luck with the permissions.

@g-maxime : I downloaded and tested the snapshot:
sudo dpkg -l dvrescue_24.07.20250406-1_amd64.Ubuntu_24.04.deb

vrecord01@vrecord01:~$ dvrescue --version DVRescue v.24.07.20250406 (MediaInfoLib v.24.06) by MIPoPS.

vrecord01@vrecord01:~$ /usr/bin/dvrescue --list_devices
rom1394_0 warning: read failed: 0x0000fffff0000414 No devices found.

There is currently one device attached:
grep . /sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw*/*
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw1/guid:0x0800460201231248
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw1/is_local:0
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw1/model:0x2000dc
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw1/model_name:HVR-1500
/sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw1/vendor_name:Sony

I should note that a few things have changed with this system since I opened the ticket. Hopefully, those charges aren't too problematic:

1: Since I had no luck with the Ubuntu permissions as suggested above by @libbyhopfauf , I rebuilt the system changing from Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS to:
$ uname -a
Linux vrecord01 6.11.0-21-generic #21~24.04.1-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Feb 24 16:52:15 UTC 2 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

2: I've since removed the multiport firewire card and have gone back to a single firewire card.

Please let me know if you would like any additional data points from the system as is, or if you would like me to revert the system and test again.

Thank you.
