What: dv1394 (a.k.a. "OHCI-DV I/O support" for FireWire)
Contact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
Description:
New application development should use raw1394 + userspace libraries
instead, notably libiec61883 which is functionally equivalent.
Users:
ffmpeg/libavformat (used by a variety of media players)
dvgrab v1.x (replaced by dvgrab2 on top of raw1394 and resp. libraries)

What: dv1394 driver (CONFIG_IEEE1394_DV1394)
When: June 2007
Why: Replaced by raw1394 + userspace libraries, notably libiec61883. This
shift of application support has been indicated on www.linux1394.org
and developers' mailinglists for quite some time. Major applications
have been converted, with the exception of ffmpeg and hence xine.
Piped output of dvgrab2 is a partial equivalent to dv1394.

What: Video4Linux API 1 ioctls and video_decoder.h from Video devices.
When: December 2006
Why: V4L1 AP1 was replaced by V4L2 API. during migration from 2.4 to 2.6
