I tried that and got this:
[root at HJDMyth contrib]# yum install libraw1394-devel libiec61883-devel

I figured I'd probably have to yum remove libraw1394 and try to 
reinstall it, but that wanted to remove 55 packages, and alot of those 
were Myth packages, so I aborted that.  So how can I get those packages 
installed?

Thanks alot for you help, especially with my apparent Firewire 
ignorance. ;-)
