Audio Video Hardware and QuickTime Pro

I recently purchased an "Eyeball" camera/mic device from Blue. I was told it is excellent. Now I need to know if QuickTime Pro will complete the circuit - so to speak.
The physical connection is from the unit to an USB port. What drivers (yes, it's Windows Vista). Will it work with QTPro 7?
Thanks to all.

The Windows version of QuickTime Pro can't record video (audio only and only from a few types of cameras).
The Mac version of the Pro upgrade can record audio and video from most Firewire connected cameras and the built in USB connected iSight camera found on most desktop models.

  • ATI Radeon X1950 Pro video card and Quicktime Pro

    In an earlier thread, I found out that the reason Quicktime Pro was not working on my new computer is that Apple has not yet worked out incompatibilities with QT Pro and new nVidia video cards. Since I need the QT Pro to do my movie editing work, I am going to switch to another high end video card. Does anyone know if an ATI Radeon X1950 Pro video card works with QT Pro? If not, is there another high-end card that someone can recommend?
    Thanks

    Sounds like you need a bigger case.

  • Using video effects in quicktime pro

    how can i access the video effects in quicktime pro every time i try and use the filters i cant apply them to the movie can any one help ie fade dissolve etc any threaaaaaaad would help can not find anything in the manuals have been looking for hours ??????????????

    Only looking for hours?

    A "movie" made from still images and some sound tracks. All made using QuickTime Pro.
    The "transitions" were made by taking the still images and adding them "scaled" to a ten second audio track. The audio was deleted so then I had about 50 little ten second videos. Two of these videos were merged into one file using:
    http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/samplemakeeffectmovie/index.html
    Thousands of combinations can be created.
    They were all added over another QT track (map of Texas) and their position and transparency levels and layers were adjusted. Last I copied all of this file and added it "scaled" to my two sound tracks.
    The "filters" can be accessed via the Export "Movie to QuickTIme Movie" but they are applied to the entire file at export. If you wish to use more than one filter you should first create separate files from your source project.
    The end result (a 4 MB file) would require over 300 MB's if done in an application like iMovie. The transitions add nearly nothing to the total file size when you do them using QuickTIme Pro.

  • There is no option to record a video on my Quicktime PRO?

    I have just downloaded Quick time PRO on my Windows Vista lap top and I need to create videos on it. When I had the basic Quicktime there was a option to video record if Quicktime PRO was purchased, now that I have it, I can not find it. I have an inbuilt camera on my laptop so maybe it hasn't registered it. What can I do to use Quicktime for video recording? Please help.
    Thanks

    When I had the basic Quicktime there was a option to video record if Quicktime PRO was purchased, now that I have it, I can not find it.
    That function is only part of the Mac OS X version of QuickTime. Record the video from another application.

  • I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am

    I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am? I need them and don't want naturally to buy them again!!!
    Thank you    

    Assuming you purchased QT Pro, you can always download it again at no extra charge by logging in to your Apple account.
    Regarding FCE, there is no way to download & install the product.  You need an original FCE install disk and your FCE serial number.
    Final Cut Pro X (aka FCPX) can be purchased & downloaded from the App Store.

  • How to send files like audio,video,images and text via RMI..

    Hi everyone,
    As I am working under a project, my own, of creating a chat machine, I've thought to make it capable of doing everything that MSN or yahoo MSN can do. Till now I've just been able to send messages and some small icons as expressions. So, my next step will be making my progam able to send even other files like audio, video, images and text to the person on the other machine to whom I'm chatting. But as I don't have any idea on how to start doing it, I want anyone who think he/she can help me to give me the basic logic that is used to do so. I would very much appreciate it. I've used vectors to store the text messages which is visible to all the users using the chat program enabling them to see various messages in it.
    thank you...

    Hi,
    Now, I got stuck because the code doesn't seem to work well. For large files with around 40 mb or more size couldn't be sent. I have constructed the code, just rough sketch, as follows:
    ** In the Server Implementation class I've used FileInputStream to read the contents of a file that is sent as an argument to the method.
    ** Similarly, in the client side I've used RandomAccessFile to save the received array of bytes.
    public void sendFile(File f)
       ChatServer cs=(ChatServer)Naming.lookup("rmi://localhost/ChatServer");
       cs.readsAndStoreTheFileInTheServer(f); // In the Server Implementation the contents of the file is read and saved in an array of byte. later method is invoked by the client to get the array of the saved byte.
       cs.message("-Accept-"); // When a client receives this word then a JComponent with accept and cancel button will be constructed from where other clients can save/cancel the sent file.
    }For small size files this code works well but for files more than 40 mb of size it is useless. I wonder if there's any other alternative.
    regards,
    Jay

  • 2010 iMac 2.93 i7 27" or 2011 2.8 i7 21.5" - which will suit better long-term?  I do a fair amount of audio, video editing and photoshop, but I have a limited budget.  What's going to give the best bang-for-buck for the next 3-5 yrs?

    I do a fair amount of audio, video editing and photoshop, but I have a limited budget.  What's going to give the best bang-for-buck for the next 3-5 yrs?  My current machine is a 13" Macbook unibody 2.4 Core 2 Duo w/ 4Gb Ram so it's time to move forward with more power and screen real estate!

    Hello, Jeff
    I could never edit on a 13" screen. I'm currently using a 17" MBP i7 Early 2011 as a fast replacement to my aged 20" Intel iMac.
    Both systems are not that far apart on stats and you will find that processing HD video will rely highly on the read/write to your storage. Myself, I'd be eye balling the 2011 for the Thunderbolt port so HD Video export/compression doesn't take forever! Currently processing a finished HD project for DVD uses at most 20% of my total CPU capacity. The FW800 drive is the big bottleneck! (I know I need at least a RAID to see a real speed boost).
    How good your eyes are and your usage style would dictate if the difference in screen size make a difference to you.

  • Editing video file in Quicktime Pro and producing a file which doesn't play

    Hi all,
    I have been editing some mp4 video in Quicktime Pro by setting the in and out position markers and cutting out segments (commercials). I save the file and end up with a .mov file which plays fine in the Quicktime player. (The file is a self-contained Quicktime movie.) At some point in the future, though, when I go to open the file in the Quicktime Player, only the audio plays. The video does not play, and the file opens as if it contained no video. That is, the Quicktime Player only shows the audio controls, and there's no area for video.
    The same file plays fine in a Finder window when using CoverFlow/QuickView mode, which is very strange to me since I assume that uses the same Quicktime engine. It also plays fine in VLC.
    Any ideas? It seems like there's some attribute on the file which is telling the Quicktime Player not to play the video, only play the audio.
    Thanks in advance,
    Russ

    Any ideas?
    First thing I would do when the file opens as an audio only files is check the "Properties" window to see what it says on a track by track basis. I also might try re-compressing the edited file to see if this prevents whatever is going on.

  • Video Slowdown in Quicktime Pro 7.1.3

    Often when I playback any video in a Quicktime powered application, such as iMovie, or Quicktime Pro (7.1.3), the video, regardless of the screen size of resolution will slow way down, though the audio continues to run at normal speed. The video eventually freezes on screen, though the program is not frozen. I'm experiencing this on a G5 Dual 1.8 PowerPC with 1GB SDRAM. I've tried fixing permissions, defragging the harddrive, running hardrive maintenance programs, but nothing seems to work. Any suggestions?

    Have you tried using the "Hardware" test from the Tiger install DVD?
    Sounds like something may be wrong with your graphics card.
    It could also be caused by out of date third party codecs (HD/Library/QuickTime). You could move third party codecs out (Desktop) and try again.

  • QuickTime Movie Files Won't Convert For iPod using iTunes and QuickTime Pro

    I've got a ton, and I mean a ton of QuickTime movie files of music videos that I want to convert to use on the iPod. I tried using "Convert Selection For iPod" in the Advanced Menu on iTunes, but got the following message trying convert a QuickTime file of U2's Beautiful Day:
    ""Beautiful Day" could not be converted because this file does not allow for saving or conversion."
    I purchased QuickTime Pro hoping that the features on Pro would convert the file. When I opened the same file to convert using QuickTime Pro, "Export" under the file menu was grayed out so I couldn't select it.
    You'd think that an APPLE QuickTime Movie file that can be played on APPLE'S iTunes and APPLE'S QuickTime Player would be able to be converted to be used in APPLE'S iPod player. (Anybody notice how APPLE is capitalized to point out that the the hardware, software and file formats are ALL Apple?)
    Instead I wasted money buying QuickTime Pro when it won't do what I specifically bought it for. Now I have all these QuickTime files which won't play on the iPod.
    Can anybody provide some help or assistance on how to accomplish what I'm trying to accomplish???

    If the file doesn't allow saving or conversions then it is protected by DRM (Fairplay).
    Nothing can help QuickTime Pro convert protected files.

  • Iphone 4 retina and Quicktime "pro" 7 not compatable? *** !

    I am disgusted that apple would sell quicktime pro (7) and advertise that it works for the iphone when the iphone 4 has been out for a year now and QT7 does NOT support the retina display resolution (920 x 640). Only the much older lower resolutions are supported for the iphone 4. Also the h264 compressor apple uses is just terrible. Heck even Videora has a far better H264 compressor and its free !
    Steve Jobs, you should be ashamed for STEALING my money!
    In all honesty, Convert your mov files with Videora for free and they will look 10 x better than any quicktime "pro" version,  do not ever purchase quicktime pro as it is a complete waste of your money and amounts to nothing more that a THEFT of your monies ! I should have gone with the reviews as most are clearly very negative on this old product but I didnt think apple could make something this terrible, hmmm, but they did.

    I'm glad yer iPhone plays 720p just like mine but that is not the problem I am having. When you find out why qt pro 7 does NOT support exporting ( using the supplied iphone or h264 settings) the iPhone 4 retina resolution then please respond with the correct reason.
    You are obviously using the built-in preset options and not custom settings. You are forgetting that Apple's primary purpose when creating pre-sets is to ensure compatibility. These options are programmed for multi-generation devices and, only support, the quality/settings that are compatible with the least capable device. As such, the TV preset is limited to 960x540 display resolution at 30/29.97 fps and a maximum video data rate of 5.0 Mbps. In a similar manner, the iPhone pre-set is limited to 1620 macroblocks/frame (usually a 720x480 or 720x576 max matrix) and 1.0 Mbps video data to maintain compatibility with all previous iPhone models. If you want to make the most of your device's particular capabilities, then either use custom settings or chose a different device pre-set whose output more closely matches what you want to use on your device if you want to use QT 7 Pro to perform your conversions. If you want to use a different converter, than, by all means, feel free to do so. However, since the source of your problem is in your work flow and not the product, I was merely attempting to point out the fact that your previous comments were unjustified.
    As far as editing softwares and hardwares go I have everything from autodesk flame/ inferno down to pro and everything in between. Again please respond to my simple question only, why does qt7 not support the latest iPhone 4 higher retina display resolution? As opposed to older lower resolutions.
    Let's hope you fully know how to take advantage of all of these hardware/software devices/applications. If you really feel Apple should support each device and generation of device with a separate entity pre-set as created and sold since being released, then contact Apple HERE and register your total dissatisfaction regarding each and every product not to your liking. You, of course, are entitled to your own opinions. Please extend the same courtesy to others.
    Qt7 still ***** and is a total waste of money as people can do everything it does better and for free. Screw apple!
    I might agree in some instances. For transcoding, I tend to prefer the X.264 codec with custom settings for more extensive analysis, better vector motion detection/rendering, removal of duplicated frames when applying detelecine, and a limited combined deinterlace/decomb filtering option. However, try aging, masking, layering, blending, picture-in-picture/picture-with-picture, and similar compositing options in a "free" utility.

  • .mov files not showing video while using Quicktime Pro

    Hi:
    I'm trying to work with some .mov files that were created in DVCPRO HD format, which I understand is a Panasonic format. I've upgraded to Quicktime Pro 7.6.4 as instructed by the individual who created the .mov files. The problem is I get audio, but no video. I've also tried exporting these movie files to DV Stream and I get an error message that reads "qtKitErrorCatchAll(-8961)."
    Thanks for viewing this and for any help you can provide.
    Message was edited by: stever4960

    The file was made by someone using Final Cut Studio?
    A white playback means the codec used in the file is missing on the machine trying to view it.
    Ask them to send you a version exported using H.264 video codec.

  • Using My Digital Video Camcorder and Quicktime...any Help???

    I recently purchased a digital camcorder that I am trying to get to work with my Mac. I also just purchased Quicktime 7.0.4 PRO which I am hoping can convert the files from my camcorder to a viewable Mac format.
    I am using OSX 10.4.6. The camera is a DXG-305 and the software written for the camera is for PC only. When I connect the camera to my Mac I get a folder to pop up of whatever I have captured but it shows files that are in a .ASF format. When I click on the file to try to open it , it wants to open in Microsoft Windows. When I go into Quicktime PRO and under File try to "Open File"- the file does not even become highlighted or selectable? Is this a file that Quicktime PRO is not able to open? If not, is there anyway that I can convert this file to one that I can use on my Mac? Is it possible to upload from my camcorder via the included USB cable and convert directly through Quicktime PRO? I am looking for ANY solution to this dilemma? Thank you-
    John

    Is this a file that Quicktime PRO is not able to open?
    Yes. Your camera's native video format is MPEG-4 and appears to possibly be "muxed" with MP3 audio.
    If not, is there anyway that I can convert this file to one that I can use on my Mac?
    Try installing the free Flip4Mac component. Then try playing the .asf file in the QT Player.
    Is it possible to upload from my camcorder via the included USB cable and convert directly through Quicktime PRO?
    If your file plays using the Flip4Mac player component, you may then wish to consider purchasing full conversion codec which will allow you to export your DXG-305V files to any frame-to-frame synchronized QT compatible format in QTPro.
    ADDED: Sorry about the duplication, too slow with my response.
