(Re: Can I force "non CYCLEMASTER mode" ?)
Date: Wed, 05 Mar 2008 10:51:37 +0900
Sorry for the late response.
Yes, it is possible in some way.
Usually, the root node becomes the cycle master and
the root node is the node which has the maximum node id.
Try the patch I have just committed to -current.

Suppose your camcorder has node id 0 and your FreeBSD box
has node id 1,
run the followins commands.
# fwcontrol -f 0
# fwcontrol -r
Then, your camcorder should turn to be the cycle master.
