so i think the camcorder profiles exists, but why the video resolution is not a low resolution when i select low camcorder option??????

That's because you don't open bar files. You load them directly onto the device using an app like DDPB. You can get it here: http://ddpb.dauden.vn/
The process is called "sideloading." You install the bar file on the BB10 or Playbook device and then it will run on the device.
Here are some steps to do it:
1. Install DDPB
2. Put the Z30 in Development Mode
3. Connect to PC and open DDPB.
4. Enter your password when prompted and enter it in the password field in DDPB.
5. Scan for IP addresses and select 169.254.0.1
6. Click Connect.
7. At the top right click "Add file" and select the bar file you wish to load. It will add it to the list.
8. Check the box for the bar file you wish to load and click "Install" at the bottom.
That's it. When you're done take the device out of Development Mode.

  • Android / IOS Record Video and play with it ?

    Is it possible to record video in Air 2.6 to mobile ?
    I know I can getCamera... but after it, can I record ?
    My goal is to make App that record video with the camera and push effect on it.
    Tank you!

    You can definitely record video on both and have the data at your disposal.  As far as I know you cannot select a video from the "video roll" though so you will have to edit only the video you just recorded:
    private var cameraRoll:CameraRoll = new CameraRoll();
    private var dataSource:IDataInput;
            private var eventSource:IEventDispatcher;
    vid_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, openVideo);
    private function openVideo(evt:MouseEvent):void{
    deviceCameraApp = new CameraUI();
    if( CameraUI.isSupported )
                    log( "Initializing camera..." );
                    deviceCameraApp.addEventListener( MediaEvent.COMPLETE, videoSelected );
                    deviceCameraApp.addEventListener( Event.CANCEL, captureCanceled );
                    deviceCameraApp.addEventListener( ErrorEvent.ERROR, cameraError );
                    deviceCameraApp.launch( MediaType.VIDEO );   //Changing this to IMAGE will make it take a picture
                   else
                    log( "Camera interface is not supported.");
    private function videoSelected( event:MediaEvent ):void
                log( "Media selected..." );
                var videoPromise:MediaPromise = event.data;
                dataSource = videoPromise.open();
                if( videoPromise.isAsync )
                    log( "Asynchronous media promise." );
                    eventSource = dataSource as IEventDispatcher;
                    log( eventSource );
                    eventSource.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, onVideoDataComplete );               
    **At this point, when the onVideoDataComplete function fires, you will have access to the bytes of the movie:
    private function onVideoDataComplete(evt:Event):void
                var videoBytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
                dataSource.readBytes( imageBytes );
                //the rest of this is just testing what we actually read
                log(videoBytes.length);
                videoBytes.position = 0;
                var string:String = videoBytes.readUTFBytes( 300 );
                log( string );
    **You can then do whatever you want with the bytes, such as save it to your local storage directory as a .mp4 and load it into flash
    Does that help?

  • Help !! I recorded videos on my blackberry playbook but when I play them back on my mac they're mute, no audio.

    I recorded videos on my blackberry playbook, however when I play those same videos on my playbook there is audio and video. When I play the videos on my Mac (Mac Mini, running Snow Leopard) the videos work fine except the audio is dropped. The strange thing is that up until about 3 weeks ago, I could play the video and audio on my Mac. Only videos recorded in the last 2 or 3 weeks will not play properly on my Mac
    Does anyone know how to fix this ?!

    What are you using to play the videos on your Mac, Quicktime X? Try VLC Media Player or MPlayer OS X Extended.

  • Transfer JVC GZ-MG505 camcorder recorded videos to iPhone 6

    Hello, I have a second-hand camcorder: JVC GZ-MG505, which is a very old camcorder. I recently recorded a clip of video with this camcorder, and want to import the video to my newly purchased iPhone 6 plus. When I try to sync the video to my iPhone 6

    Hello, TinaBj, in order to give you a professional answers, I specially checked your camcorder's technique specs, only few answers I can get, one possible way list on http://www.modconverter.net, which give a brief answer that your camcorder recorded videos as .mod. If so, you can try iMovie to convert .mod to .mp4 or .m4v first, Then use iTunes to sync your video clips to iPhone 6. Hope it works.

  • Does the Z1 have manual exposure adjustment when recording videos?

    Looked all over the internet but can't find an answer to this question. When recording videos with the Z1, is it possible to manually increase the exposure by way of a slider (usually a range of -2 to +2)? I know there's an option to choose spot/centre weighted etc, but can this variable by set in advance with a slider? I film a lot of indoor videos that often end up completely underexposed when left in auto mode, therefore manual override is a must for me.
    If not, does anyone know of any third party camera apps that add this functionality?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    On mine, running Android 4.4.2, before recording I can do it using the row of icons on the left. Make sure 'SCN' in the top left corner ('scene', in other words) is set to 'off'. This is like selecting 'manual' rather than one of the automatic, scene dependant, modes and it opens up the use of the next settings icon below it, the one that looks like 3 sliders, which would otherwise be 'greyed out'. So now that it's white you can tap it, go in, and manually select your 'white balance' setting (I use 'auto') and also the slider that you mentioned that goes from +2 to - 2. The slider in this case is labelled as 'EV'. Did this help?

  • Audio from a recorded video

    I record a video with my playbook and the only audio is pulsating static. My son's playbook is doing the same thing. Restarting it doesn't help. How do we fix this?

    Hello tdmjesmom,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community.
    Thank you for your question regarding static audio for recorded video on your BlackBerry PlayBook tablet.
    Does this occur on any newly recorded video? Have you also tried powering the device off and back on by holding the red power button for 10-15 seconds?

  • Recording video on 24 fps?

    I wish to record video in 24 fps - dearly
    Is there any way to by pass the phones inbuilt regulations (30 and 60 fps)? For example, I use an app (vintage 8mm video camera), which makes my phone record, or at least appear to record, in 15 fps, so maybe there is a way?
    Otherwise, do you know of any other sony phone that can record in 24 fps?
    Best wishes
    Coraxo

    Well, 30 fps is smoother than 24 fps and that is the problem, a bit of the cinematic look is lost. The industrial standard so far is to record or at least deliver the films in 24 fps, so we are simply conditioned to associate that frame rate with a film in the cinema. A deviation is The Hobbit, which is delivered at the double, 48 fps, I have not seen it myself though but am curious.
     I read another interesting explanation on why many find 24 fps attractive, and that was that because of the less smooth expeience, we accept it as a film, and not reality, and because of this, more easily are drawn into the alternative universe the film maker creates.
    At the last Sundance film festival, Tangerine, a film that was shot entirely with a phone, received a lot of praise, here is what the director says about the technical solutions:
    "CP: What additional technology did you use to make shooting with an iPhone viable?
    SB: We had this wonderful little anamorphic adapter that fits onto the end of the iPhone. It allowed us to shoot with a widescreen aspect ratio, which gave the film a very cinematic scope. We also used an inexpensive app called Filmic Pro; it locks exposure and focus, and most importantly it shoots at 24 frames a second. The adaptor and the app are what made me believe we could make an iPhone movie that looked like a film. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the film has a Super 16 feel on the big screen. [In post-production] we added grain and pumped up the colors, which added to the cinematic look and achieved something unique."
    (For android I believe 'Cinema FV-5' is a corresponding app)
    Anyway, in the end it boils down to taste.

  • Adobe Captivate Help | Record video demonstrations

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/captivate/using/record-video-demonstrations.html

    Hi Nirupama,
    Before recording, choose the recording resolution as Youtube Widescreen HD and that should capture it in the right resolution.
    And while publishing the recorded CPVC project, choose the HD resolution or customize the publishing quality settings -- Choose High Profile, and Encode using Bitrate, use the Highest possible Bitrate value. You are free to customize any othe value as well.
    Thanks,

  • Adobe Media Server failing to record video if switched from play to record midstream

    The Adobe Media Server is failing to record video if switched from play to record midstream. It is an intermittent issue that happens randomly one out of every 30 attempts.
    Flash Runtime: Flash Player ActiveX 11.7.700.169 or Flash Player ActiveX 11.4.402.287
    Media Server: AMS5.0.1, also FMS4.5.5
    (The problem happens on both FMS4.5.5 and AMS5.0.1)
    The ActionScript is as follows:
    netstreamRoger.publish("719_Client","play");
    Then 1 second later:
    netstreamRoger.publish("719_Client","record");
    netstreamRoger is streaming out the video and audio data correctly, because there is another computer playing the stream 719_Client live. So the media server is forwarding the stream correctly when live. The bug is when you attempt to playback 719_Client.flv the file does not contain any video data. The file size is not zero, and the file is not corrupted, but the file size is smaller than it would be if it had saved the video in it.
    How do I submit this bug to the Media Server team, and how can I workaround this issue?
    Below is the log from the Media Server 5.0.1

  • Recording video using external iSight and audio using wired input

    I would like to be able to record video using an external iSight camera I have from my old powerbook, but I don't want the audio to record through the internal microphone...I want it to record through a wired input coming off a mixer...is this possible?

    Welcome to iMovie Discussions.
    "..is this possible?.." ..I don't think so. By connecting an external FireWire iSight camera, iMovie expects both the vision and the sound to come in down the same FireWire cable.
    If you need to use a separate audio input, you may be able to do it by connecting a FireWire-capable camcorder (..a tape-based miniDV or HDV camcorder which uses a FireWire connection to attach to a Mac..) and then feeding your mixer's output to the camcorder's external-mic input ..at very low volume, of course, so that you don't wreck the camcorder's input.
    This entails using a camcorder which does have an external-mic (or line) input. That way, the picture from the camcorder will go straight into iMovie, as will the audio which is being fed into the camcorder ..thus both reaching iMovie via the camera's FireWire connection.

  • Record Video Podcast Directly to Desktop With QT Pro?

    Hello all,
    I was creating my video podcasts, but importing video into iMovie, then exporting.
    I was trying to learn how to hook my minidv camcorder via firewire and record directly to my desktop. Not record then import, but record and save directly to the desktop.
    I had read about people doing this with the iSight camera using QT Pro. I also read that using QT Pro, this should work with a minidv camcorder.
    I purchased QT Pro last night to enable the "New Movie Recording" feature and I followed the directions here--> http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials/videopodcasts.html
    However, I can't get it to work. When following the above directions, there is no choice other than "Automatic" under Video Source. Shouldn't my camcorder be recognized as a choice here?
    I have plugged my camcorder in via firewire and tried setting it to "manual", "play", and "automatic" with no results.
    Can someone tell me if this is possible and if so maybe offer some advice on what I may be doing wrong?
    Thanks in advance for any and all advice.

    However, I can't get it to work. When following the above directions, there is no choice other than "Automatic" under Video Source. Shouldn't my camcorder be recognized as a choice here?
    "Automatic" detection of audio and video is normal (at least it is when mine is plugged in). Only have one such device, so I don't know if "named" devices are used when more than one is attached.
    I have plugged my camcorder in via firewire and tried setting it to "manual", "play", and "automatic" with no results.
    Assume "Manual" and "Automatic" here are the equivalent to my "Camera" function (in auto or manual mode) for the capture of "live" material. ("Play" would be used for the capture of previously recorded material.)
    Can someone tell me if this is possible and if so maybe offer some advice on what I may be doing wrong?
    Yes. The only problem you should encounter is a possible reduction in frame rate dependent up CPU power, capture mode used, and number of processes running simultaneously.
    I'm sorry, I forgot to add that when I choose "New Movie Recording" quicktime errors with the message that the device is in use with another program. Which, to my knowledge, is not the case. I do not have iChat or AOL running. In fact, I have tried with no other programs running....that I could see anyway.
    When "New Movie Recoding" is selected, the preview window should open displaying what the camera is pointed at (if turned on in proper mode). Based on your "error message," it would appear that your computer thinks some other application (or connected hardware) has control of your camera. Try a "Force Quit" of running applications and "Quit" in the Avtivity Monitor to exit other "hidden" processes that might be causing problems.

  • Recording Video on the Imac

    Hey guys. I am 14 years old and have a passion for Video editing and movie makeing. Currently i am using my IMac to make videos for my schools Morning announcement program. What i was wondering is if it is possible to record what is going on on the computer screen (for example record video of World of Warcraft). Also if it is possible to record directly onto the computer from an outside source, for example a Xbox. (i figured that recording these would give me something fun to mess with and work on my skills without having to have a bunch of my friends come over and act for me)

    Chuckarthy, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Snapz Pro X is the premier utility for capturing activity on the screen.
    ...for example record video of World of Warcraft...
    Most games override any thing else and won't allow you to capture screen shots.
    Also if it is possible to record directly onto the computer from an outside source, for example a Xbox.
    If your mini-DV camcorder has digital pass through, you can pipe the video from the Xbox into your mini-DV camcorder and out via Firewire to iMovie on your iMac.

  • How do I record video straight into final cut express?

    I'm pretty new to the video editing world, and I can't figure out how to run my camera straight into express to record, if that is even possible. The camera is a panasonic AVCCAM, and its the model AG-HMC40P. It has a usb 2.0 mini out and a hdmi out, but I don't know how to run those into my computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    This is an AVCHD camcorder.  FCE can capture video recorded by this camcorder, but you cannot just connect the camcorder to your Mac and capture "live" video from the camcorder.
    To capture/ingest recorded AVCHD video, in FCE select one of the AVCHD Easy Setups that matches how you shot your video, then connect the camcorder to your Mac via USB, then in FCE use the Log & Transfer function to ingest the video from the camcorder.
    If you really  need to capture live video, you will need to use either a miniDV camcorder ... or use an analog-digital converter to which you would connect the analog output of your camcorder and also the Firewire port on your Mac. The Canopus ADVC-110 or ADVC-300 are examples of good quality converters.
    Notes:  Your camcorder appears to have an ordinary a/v out in addition to HDMI and Component.  You could use the a/v out with the converter.  The analog-digital converter will convert the analog output of your camcorder to DV over FireWire.  Both methods, of course, will only give you standard-def 4:3 video.  In FCE you would select the DV-NTSC DV Converter easy setup and use the Capture Now function to capture the video/audio.
