I scratched my head over this a while, Googled a bunch, even looked at the box's diagnostics (lots in there) to see that the ieee1394 port is enabled. It is, as are a few other ports - interesting to see. Then I remembered my machine had never had a firewire cable plugged into it and if it's like other plugs it tended to suck in dust (turning into fuzz) over time. So I unplugged, gave the socket a good vacuum and the swish of a paintbrush, plugged back in and it works now!
I had to add to 6200ch.c (for an Arris DCX-3200M P3):
#define DCX3200M_VENDOR_ID3 0x00946269
#define DCX3200M_MODEL_ID3 0x00002322
and some changes in the if ( ((dir.vendor_id ) ... block further below it.
Q: Who should get these changes?
Q: https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/6200ch says I should update firewiredevice.cpp but I'm on Fedora using RPMs. What to do?
