Do I take it that you have a tv in or similar on your computer? You might want 
to take a look at kino, which has a video 4 linux capture option (you have to 
enable it in settings). I have had some (albeit limited) success in capturing 
dv files using it from my old happauge win tv card (circa 1996) :-)

You need to set it to capture raw dv files, rather than avi files, since that 
is currently all that kdenlive/piave support.

Cheers,
Jason
