Can't output video to Firewire via Canopus..

Hi all,
All of a sudden today, I am not able to output video via Firewire to my Canopus ADVC-110 with Final Cut Pro 6. I do however have video output when using programs like Logic, so the Canopus appears to be working fine. I checked the Audio/Video settings in FCP and have Firewire as Video playback, but no output is going to my monitor. What settings do I need to be looking at, in FCP. It's clearly something I did, and would like to correct it, so I can monitor video again. Please advise.
Also...one other note, I can't seem to playback video through Firewire in Soundtrack Pro as well. But Logic Pro plays vide through the firewire device just fine. Anyone have any insite on this? Thanx in advance....

Make sure the light is in the DV mode...press the big button a couple times to make sure. Also make sure you didn't switch to PAL mode from NTSC or something. AND...
If for some reason you can't view your timeline on your external monitor, there are a few things to try:
1) Make sure that the camera/deck is connected and powered on BEFORE you open FCP.
2) In the Final Cut Pro menu select AUDIO/VIDEO Preferences and make sure your signal is being sent out thru Firewire DV.
3) Go to the menu and select VIEW>EXTERNAL>ALL FRAMES.
4) Click in the % box above the image and select FIT TO WINDOW.
5) Go to VIEW->refresh A/V devices
6) Make sure the Log & Capture window is closed
If you want it to play in both the canvas and the external monitor you need to go to the FINAL CUT PRO menu and select AUDIO/VIDIO settings and make sure MIRROR ON DESKTOP is selected under the PLAYBACK OUTPUT section

  • Can I output sound from MBP via firewire or usb to DAC

    I would like to output sound (iTunes) from my mid 2008 MBP to a digital to analog converter using either firewire or usb to play on my home stereo.
    Is this possible and if so, could someone step me through how to accomplish this?
    Regards,
    Jim P.

    This is posible, you need to do some reaearch to find out what will be the optimum converter that is compatible.  Off the the side of my head...I don't know. But it is doable.

  • Is there any way I can convert s-video to firewire in HD?

    I am using sony video cameras with s-video or RCA outputs and I would like to use the firewire into to the Mac. Is there a device I can use to convert it to the Mac?

    I'm with Grant on the issue of your camera...  Pretty much everything since the turn of the century (since Digital 8 more specifically) has been equipped with FW out to assist in capture. (More recently FW disappeared when videocams went tapeless.)
    From a hardware standpoint you can capture VHS using either of those suggested devices (I favor the Canopus or DataVideo Digital-to-Analog convertors) but you're probably going to run into problems with the software end of the capture. I'm not sure that iMovie knows what VHS is, and unless you have an older copy of Final Cut Pro stashed away you're in trouble there too since the latest version (Final Cut Pro X) doesn't have much support for tape capture, much less VHS capture.
    The smart money is to take the $200-300 you'd invest in convertors and buy a Flip or something that iMovie can talk to. Then you can get to the business of making that movie.

  • How can I output video without recording?

    I have FCE and it is working ok. I can record to a dv mini tape using Print to video and a firewire connection. But I want to send video to a monitor via my Sony D300 digital vcr. I cannot get the system to do this. For Easy Setup I am using DV NTSC 32khz. Would another easy set up work better?
    Are my settings wrong? I also have a Sony VX1000 digital camcorder but I have not tried to use it instead of the digital vcr.
    Would appreciate comments.

    When I go to: View>Video I get 3 choices: Real time, firewire, or show current.
    I have the D300 digital vcr set ready to play, so I guess this is the Play Mode. The "VTR OK" appears when I want to capture so I guess this is OK.
    When I try to output the timeline, I see the playback on the G4 but only the first frame of the video appears and it remains on the monitor. The rest of the playback does not appear. (This is an advance over what I had before,)
    I have FCE version 2.0.3

  • Can u output video/audio from iPad?

    Will iPad play video to external source like tv?

    I have used the iPad with a newer projector and the iPad screen appears to project all the pixels or at least all the content.
    In Keynote on an older 640x800 projector, only a smaller portion of the iPad screen projects. I played the Composite Adapter on my TV and saw the full edge-to-edge content.
    My MacBook 'knows enough' to reduce the screen size when attached to the 640x800. Not so with the iPad.
    Bottom line, I have to reduce the size and center material on the Keynote slide to capture all the content when I use the lower resolution projector.
    Am I missing something?
    Also, is the Headphone jack still active when using the 30pin Composite Adapter? Otherwise I need RW RCA to 3.5mm adapters from the composite to use external speakers.

  • Why Can't Camera Work with Windows Messenger for Mac and give output video?

    I can see from the other end, but my camera won't come on so they can't see me. I hear them and can type in Messenger, but I'd like to have 2-way video, not just receive.
    My camera works as I use it in Photo Booth, so that's not the problem. I can't find a way to setup the video within Messenger. Don't know if it's problem with Messenger or Leopard.
    Whatever it is, it's very annoying that I can't output video.
    Anyone with similar problem or have the answer? I'd be forever grateful!

    Microsoft Messenger doesn't have video support on the Mac version. If you want crossplatform videochat, ask your friends to join AOL Instant Messenger. You can get video chat crossplatform between AOL Instant Messenger for PC & Apple's iChat which supports AOL Instant Messenger screen names. Skype is crossplatform too. An open source program called ophonex supports Microsoft Messenger's Netmeeting protocol for video chat as well. IRC is also crossplatform in videochat though its setup is a bit more complicated with the software known as Ircle for the Mac.

  • Output video via firewire/ilink?

    I just got a new Sony TV and of course it features their "ilink" aka a firewire 400 6pin input and I was wondering if there is anyway to have my powerbook output audio and video via its firewire port because it would be slightly better quality then S-video out, at least I presume it would be...

    Oh, I see, just to use the computer itself. I guess you could try, but now I think that jack on the TV is probably for playing video back directly from a FireWire video camera, of which Sony sells plenty.
    S-video is just a bit above NTSC video. It is not high-resolution by today's standards. You can probably do better than S-Video, check the other ports on the TV.
    A VGA port will provide much more resolution than S-Video. It might be labeled RGB. VGA is what we used to use to plug in an analog CRT computer monitor. You can send VGA video from your PowerBook with an adapter that probably came in the box. Get a VGA cable and connect the adapter to it.
    A DVI port, if your TV has it, will give you the best and sharpest image of all. Some high-end TVs have DVI input. DVI is the all-digital standard currently used to drive the high-resolution LCD computer monitors sold by Apple and others. You have a DVI port on the side of your PowerBook; you just need to buy a cable.

  • Can I convert a camera Firewire output to a USB input on a laptop without buying a Canopus box?

    Can I convert a camera Firewire output connector to a USB input on a laptop without having to buy a Canopus box or other expensive piece of equipment?

    Unfortunately, no. Firewire and USB are two entirely different methods of transfering data. There's no simple/cheap converter out there. You will have to look into either purchasing a canopus device or get a computer which will support a firewire or video input.
    Thank you,

  • How can I output RCA video?

    How can I output RCA video from the headphone jack of my macbook pro? Is there any software to do this?

    I can't broadcast with the built in iSight webcam... how would I zoom in or zoom out? or how would I pan? I've seem people doing it walking with their laptops but that's not an option for me... there's nothing wrong with my USB ports but that's neither an option to stream video because as far as I know through USB you can't connect video in apple operating systems ..you can for sure plug any video cam or photo camera through usb but as a drive to transfer data not as a live video camera...  is by firewire an old interface developed by apple that you can connect all sorts of cameras to apple computers... unfortunately my new sony HDR-AX2000 camcorder doesn't have firewire output...
    thanx

  • Is it possible to display Windows PC video output on an iMac via Thunderbolt?

    Is it possible to display Window PC video output on an iMac via Thunderbolt?

    Currently the ThunderBolt iMacs can only be used as an external display by other ThunderBolt Macs.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Thunderbolt/10.6/en/30822.html
    When there is a Windows PC with ThunderBolt released it might work as well.
    And/or when there will be ThunderBolt devices which enable this.
    The Intensity Extreme http://www.blackmagic-design.com/uk/products/intensity/ might allow this once it is released.

  • Video Importing Problems via Firewire

    Hi there !
    Few days ago, i've imported footage from my sony camera via Firewire connection in IMovie 09, It was my 1st time to capture videos in SNOW LEOPARD.
    then i've captured videos in IMovie 09 using ISight,
    and after capturing videos with ISight, i can't capture videos from any other Video camera via Firewire.
    IMovie 09, or Adobe Premiere CS4 don't recognize/see/show Firewire connected Video Cameras, but ONLY ISIGHT !!!!!!!!!!!!! TOTAL NIGHTMARE !
    Please guys fix this problem, it's such a shame that Snow Leopard has such an exception error,
    are we going to have such strange problems like the WINDOWS VISTA users ??

    Welcome to Discussions, Enslaved
    If the cable idea does not fix your problem, see if you get any other ideas from these:

  • Can I import video from a Firewire camcorder using the Thunderbolt to Firewire Adapter?

    I have an older camcorder that has a firewire interface. My new iMac does not have any firewire ports. Can I import video from the camcorder using a Thunderbolt to Firewire Adapter or is the Thunderbold adapter only used for hard drives and displays?

    Rather than an adapter, I would suggest you purchase a 4 pin to 9 pin Firewire 800 cable to run from the camera to the Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter. Those FW 400 to 800 adapters frequently do not work so well for importing video in my experience.
    The Firewire cables are pretty inexpensive if you get them online. For example try Monoprice.
