Oh, that's much more effort than necessary.

OpenCV already includes libdc1394 wrappers, that you should be able  
to use out of the box (on linux/unix). Before compiling OpenCV  
libdc1394 and libraw1394 should be installed properly, then just  
call ./configure and look at the summary lines. Both libs should be  
marked with 'yes'.

Have a look at opencv/otherlibs/highgui/cvcap.cpp to see how to use  
it with cvCaptureFromCAM.

Yours, Mark
