Hi, does anybody have experience connecting Sony DCR-HC23 Handycam to Linux through USB? I send the USB descriptor below. The device appears only after selecting the "FN/MENU/SETUP MENU/USB STREAM" menu item of the handycam to "ON". When I select "OFF" and press "EXEC" button then the device disconnects from the USB bus, if I select "ON" and press "EXEC" the device connects again to USB bus. (The device also have a Firewire port, unfortunately my PC doesn't have one.)
