Camera Functions: As Security and Ability to Record

I would like to have a webcamera that can detect motion and then record all that it "sees" until there is no longer any motion detected. I would like to later view the video of the motion and what was detected. I was looking at the WebCam NX since it states that the software included will allow me to operate my own security "spycam." I am curious if it will provide me with the above function. In addition to that function, I would like the function of being able to go onto Yahoo Messenger (or a similar program) and be able to view what the camera is "seeing" at any one time. Can that be done? I appreciate your assistance with this question.

Hi,
Unfortunately the iSight is not supported as input for Garageband.

  • I just downloaded ios 7 and when I'm recording video the camera screen goes black and doesn't record anything. Also in control centre music control doesn't work sometimes. It's been three days.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.      
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Which video camera is mac compatible and suitable to record professional quality tutorials to be views on the internet?

    Background:  I want to make proffesional quality video tutorials to be accessed by other internet users.  They will be filmed from a static overhead position.  My budget is £400 but if I can get a camera for less that would be great.  I have done my best to research which camera to buy and I am stuck (mainly because I have no knowledge of this field) with a few issues.
    I thought I had found a suitable camera - Panasonic HCV-700 but I have identified a couple of issues surrounding Mac compatibility.
    I would really appreciate any experience or advice you can give me.
    I will be using imovie to edit my video and will probably add the sound after editing.
    I understand this camera can film in iframe and that that makes it easily downloaded to imovie to edit.  If I do this will the quaility be high enough to be viewed on a PC or Mac - or other smaller devices?  I understand from what I have read iframe is not HD but is higher than SD.
    Or is it better to film in another format (which as I understand it will need to have something done to it to be editable in imovie (not sure what or how much time it will add to the process of producing a video)
    I think my question's are:
    Is the camera above suitable for my needs as a Mac user - to produce proffesional quality tutorials?
    If it is not - what do you suggest?
    If it is which format should I film in to record videos for internet viewing?
    If it is not iframe then do I need other software to be able to edit in imovie?
    How much extra time do you think this will add to production times?
    Any help or advice would be much appreciated - I am starting to tear my hair out trying to research this!

  • Frustrating Lack of Preferences and Ability to Record

    Hello -
    I am trying to use my iSight Camera/Mic to record my voice in GB3. Although the iSight is connected and working, nothing happens in GB3 when I record. (It puts a region in the track, but there's no sound recorded.) When I tried to open preferences to choose the iSight as the input device, preferences wouldn't open.
    After looking at the suggestions in this forum, I put all the .plist and .cs files related to GB into the trash and restarted.
    Still, I couldn't open preferences nor could I record with iSight.
    This is an extremely frustrating bug in GB3. I hope someone at Apple is working 24/7 to resolve this simple glitch. I'm about ready to put my fist through my cinema screen. I'd appreciate any help you guys could give me to make this thing work.
    Thanks,
    Mary.

  • What is the problem when your camera function doesn't work and lags?

    What's the problem when the camera function doesnt work and lags? Can my iPod touch be returned because of this? I have done nothing to damage the product.

    My file association for jpg files is correct, if i click on a
    jpg, ACDSee starts immediately.Although I am a long time Windoze non-user, I vaguely remember that there's a difference between correct file-type association being set and some application starting at a mouse click on a file icon. I also vaguely remember Windoze file-type association mechanism uses a few action-types. Java Desktop should expect a specific action-type for the association.

  • My camera and iBooks have stopped sending emails, the function and ability to create the email is still there but my iPad will no loner send the email or even store a draft on my account to suggest the email was ever written; please help I need thability

    My camera and iBooks have stopped sending emails, the function and ability to create the email is still there but my iPad will no loner send the email or even store a draft on my account to suggest the email was ever written; please help I really need this functionality.

    Can you send any emails at all indicating that the mail app is working? Did you try any basic stuff yet?
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Close those affected apps and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Secure Video conferencing with the ability to record

    Hi,
    I am looking for a flash based secure video conferencing app which has the ability to record conferences.
    I need it to enable a series of helpdesk type sessions and would prefer to use Flash so that the users do not have long set-up times.
    Does anyone know of any off the shelf or open source apps that are out there?
    Thanks

    Well and If you look at any thing by blackberry you can see that it does not match up on its features versus the iPhone. iPhone users and those of us who use it for it's amazing abilities aren't caught up on the fact that it lacks video, or picture messaging. There are other things that are more important to worry about with this phone. Play around with it and you can see that this is a very powerful tool. I switched to AT&T just to get the iPhone. Blackberry's phones have nothing on the iPhone, the way i look at it is the iPhone can only blow your mind away in the next model and until then get used to it's functions. I'd rather know how to use it at it's "simple" state as opposed to it high tech overly advanced possibilities.

  • What is the preferred video file format for iMovie? About to purchase POS digital camera w ability to record HD Video.

    I am about to purchase a digital point and shoot camera with the ability to record HD video.   I plan on importing all pics and video to iPhoto and want to begin creating iMovies combining photo's and the video clips.
    It seems from the many posts that .MOV is supported in iMovie, but many posts in the community seemed to suggest that .MOV does not always work in iMovie.  

    YEAH, but  "iMovie" changes the "camcorder Mts" files into "mov" files and
    this causes some lost of movie quality. To maintain the highest quality
    camcorder movie quality you must not change the "mts" files. However, if
    you want to "merge" any of your camcorder movies (and you most likely
    will) any merging also changes the "mts" files to "mov" etc., so you will still
    loose movie quality. "There appears to be no way to avoid loosing picture
    quality once you decide to change the "Mts" files to something other".

  • Ability to record and playback role play activities

    Hi All,
    I conduct skill training sessions using Adobe Connect and would like the ability to record a role play between two people sharing webcams, and have the ability to immediately play back and debrief this video recording. Besides using a third-party screen capture program, are there any other solutions/techniques I can use to accomplish this.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Have you managed to fix this frustrating problem.
    I have Flash Builder 4 and I am having exactly the same problem.
    I cannot find a solution to it anywhere.

    A few weeks ago, my camera doesn't do that, but since 1-2 weeks it becomes impossible to record with it.

  • HT201401 Camera lens on iPhone 4 does not open and nothing is visible, although the camera functions normally via MMS only.

    The virtual camera lens on my iPhone 4 stays closed when accessing the camera via the camera application. If I use the camera via the MMS messaging feature the camera will operate properly and save any picture to the camera roll.
    So, there does not seem to be a hardware problem. The camera works fine except when I use the camera application itself.
    I've reset the phone and performed a restore via iTunes, the camera will usually operate normally for a short period and then revert to a state where the camera lens will not open unless accessed by a third party app or via the MMS application.
    I deleted any third party applications from the phone just in case there was a conflict, this did not help, the lens remains closed unless accessed by the messaging application or any other third party application.
    Any suggestions would be very much appreciated as this is a very frustrating problem.

    Since Reset is not helping, Restore iPhone with iTunes on computer. If this does not fix problem, consider replacing camera or entire iPhone.

  • Lost all bookmarks, history, and ability to make new bookmarks and record new history

    that basically says it.
    also lost function of back and forward function and indication of website address . All of this is really pissing me off!

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
