I am working right now on a project using an AVT Guppy camera with a 
Firewire interface.  The only problem we had is before we tried using 
the camera in MATLAB (using the Image Acquisition Toolbox) someone had 
installed the AVT software.  As a result, we could not get the camera to 
work at all with the CMU driver that MathWorks recommends for 
compatibility testing.  As soon as I uninstalled the AVT software all 
was well and the camera works fine with MATLAB.  So, don't install 
anything from AVT, just plug the camera in and use it.

I don't understand what you mean by "which data stream can you get...".
