Hi,
I have a DVR (Pioneer DVR-660H-S) that in Windows I connect to by plugging in the USB cable between them and then clicking on "Connect PC" on the DVR menu. Once I hit this the DVR allows me to upload audio, video and pictures. Before I click on the "Connect PC" I can see the DVR on my PC but I can't do anything.
When I connect the DVR in my Linux box (OpenSuSE 13.1) I see the device and it gets reported as a camera. Again, I can't really do anything with it because I never get prompted by the DVR to click on the "Connect PC" menu item as it remains grayed out.
I don't know anything about these protocols and have no clue if just installing a little more software would make it all work on Linux or if there's some proprietary drivers that only exists for Windows.
If anyone has any knowledge on this please let me know. It would be nice to be able to connect through my Linux computers and do file transfers without using my laptop but not necessary.
