Hyper-V and Firewire devices

Hi there,

is it possible to use Firewire devices in Hyper-V machines?
Especially: Is it possible to use a Firewire TV-card in a Vista machine
running on Hyper-V?

Regards
Jens

Re: Hyper-V and Firewire devices

No, and I haven't seen a third party solution in this area either. Plus,
just to be clear - the video in a Vista Hyper-V child partition is not
exactly anything to write home about. Hyper-V is not the solution for
virtualizing client computers.
