Hi Max-
You are correct, we don't change the serial number in the IEEE GUID, as we have found problems when connected multiple DV devices to the same IEEE bus. Can you tell us more about your application?

My application is simple opensource video server that play only DV based content and controlled by VDCP.
I used dv1394 module (see http://www.linux1394.org/) to send DV packets to device. That module used channel 63 (broadcast) to send data.
Now i am going to migrate from usage dv1394 to raw1394+libiec61883, it can use broadcast mode and p2p - that makes me possible to connect more than one AVC device (currently SD-Connect) to 1394 controller.
The problem is that not unique SD-Connect's GUID required to keep port and node number for configuring DV data sending loop (not so stable method, after bus reset, device removind/attaching, i can't detect what of available AVC devices is setted on node #1 on port #0) or still use broadcast data sending (required one 1394 controller per "video port").
