Could you build this?
No Direct preservation and bitstream decoding of legacy MiniDV video over FireWire/Thunderbolt on Apple Silicon requires specialized low-level hardware protocol and codec knowledge.
What it would actually take: Requires custom IOKit/DriverKit FireWire/AV/C camera control drivers, real-time DV bitstream parsing, and AVFoundation/CoreVideo frame decoding. Building this demands deep legacy AV hardware protocol engineering and macOS kernel/driver development expertise.
