Hello all,

Are all firewire cables equal or are there some differences that I have to pay attention to ?

It's because I'm new to firewire. . got my Audigy today and within the next days I want to copy a movie from a friend's DV camcorder to my PC. So I need a firewire cable but I want to be sure that I buy the right one.

TIA,

RJ

I've never seen any differences. The only thing to watch for the two types of cables -- 6 pin to 4 pin & 4 pin to 4 pin. I think the Audigy is a 6 pin connector, and all cameras are 4 pin.
