Well, no, dvgrab is not at all portable. However, dvgrab is nicely decoupled
from kdenlive via a command line interface and pipes. So, something similar
could be written using DirectShow on Windows. There might even be a
GUI-based open source tool for Windows implementing Firewire capture that
could be integrated by stripping it down to a command line exe with a
similar interface. I imagine any initial efforts just would not bother to
make capture available.
