Firewire has pretty much died out. It is being replaced by USB 3.0 & USB-C

I'm very happy to say I found a way around this using a video capture device.

Many new laptops are being made without the firewire port and the laptop manufacturing companies are believing that firewire port is not that necessary in today's time as it was used much earlier. for more information www.evernote.com/shard/s721/sh/c0a1622d-66a8-48ed-bee2-626fa1997d97/48d732612b953a02b8663d6ffcd1b5e7
