Can't record video or audio with my MBP's isghit

Everytime I try to record a video or a sound using quicktime and the isght in my MBP an error message saying the "recording could not create a file" disk may be full or not writeable". my disk is not full for sure... any ideas? Thanks

I've been having the same problem -- when I tried to record audio using Quicktime Pro I got the very same message.
What I discovered is that you have to go into the Quicktime recording preferences and set the destination where you want it to record to.
I had it previously set to an external HD that was no longer connected, which is why I was getting that message. I changed the recording destination to my desktop and it worked fine.
Hope this helps!

  • Recording Video and Audio at Same time with simultaneous sync

    I want to record a keyboard performance into garageband and at the same time record the playing of that performance with my video camera. Then I want to create a movie using the music from garageband and the video from the camera. I was thinking that if I can sync the video and audio when I'm recording the session, then that part is taken care of. Or, maybe this is easier than I think it is?
    Is there a way to do this so that I can use the garageband record performance and have it synced to the video on the camera?
    I don't want to use the audio from the video camera because the performance that is captured in Garageband will be much better and I can do editing of the individual notes in GB.
    In the end, I just want to make a movie and/or podcast of the performance.
    I'm a newbie regarding this, but I did search the forums and couldn't find anything specific. Mostly it was about importing video into GB3 and then syncing new audio. I'll basically have audio and video from the same performance in two separate locations and I want to bring them together perfectly in Garageband.
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Okay. I got the video and audio all together. I told you I'd link to it when it was up.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxssYpUNJm8
    There's also a copy of it at http://www.myspace.com/bonjimmy/
    And as a quick side comment, even though I uploaded the same video to both YouTube and MySpace, the MySpace version is much better. YouTube must do something to the video after it's uploaded.
    What I learned doing this project:
    I recorded the video first (which gave me the sequencing of the piano performance) and then I dubbed the audio in later. However, there wasn't a good way to sync the video and the prerecorded piano, so there are some spots where the dubbed audio vocal isn't accurate to the video. I'm not sure what the pros do for this. I was hoping I'd remember how I sang for the video but when a couple weeks go by before re-doing the audio, it's about impossible. I tried, though.
    I remember working with an old 4-track and smpte to a sequencer a long time ago. With the way it is now, it's pretty cool that you can record digitally and mix and match and everything falls together perfectly as long as you have a place to match the video and the audio. It's pretty cool.
    What else???
    Does anyone have suggestions that would have made it better? Also, if you have suggestions on my performance or whatever, I'd love comments, but you can do that on the linked page.
    Thanks again for all your help. (The point of the video is because I'm thinking about getting back out there and doing some more playing... I'm looking for a band or something else interesting...)

  • Brutal error message OSStatus error 2003332927 Can not record video/audio

    I have QT pro 7.6 and since a couple of weeks ago, I have been unable to record video or audio.
    Any Ideas what this error code means and how I can fix it?
    thanks everyone!

    Hi there.
    After further testing I have found that the reason I was receiving the Brutal Error, was because of my DigiDesign Core Audio Driver.
    If I am using the MBox, and Digi Core Audio, (i.e Mbox I/O is active) Quicktime Pro will not record video/Audio.
    If however I switch back to the Mac audio out (disconnect the MBox), Quicktime Pro works fine.
    I havent had time to "fix" the problem in the Digi Core Audio, but this was the source of my Brutal Error Code.
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I record video without sound?

    I would like to record videos without audio on my iphone? Is their a way to record videos without sound in the default camera app? If not than does any one know of any apps that can?

    Do you happen to have your phone set for mute?  Apparently (with the Note 3) this would also mute recording of sound in videos.  Using normal recording mode?    Slow mo and other modes may not record sound either.

  • Can you record video usb webcam

    Can you record video using final cut pro from a usb webcam? you can do that with quicktime. Can you do that with final cut pro? i tried import video from camera but it only shows isight camera that is built in the macbook.

    You can record live video from the built-in iSight camera that is standard in most macs (in fact, all but the Mac Pro and Mini). From other cameras, I doubt it. Of course, you can record with Quicktime Player and use the recorded video inside FCP X. But beware, many webcams have very low quality, low frame rate and size, so don't expect to get great video.

    You have two basic options. One is to use a commercial screen recording app with access to system audio built into the app and the other is to add a system extension like SoundFlower that allows the QT X screen recorder to access/record the system audio. I use the former so I am not that familiar with SoundFlower but there should be several posts to this forum covering this topic.

  • Recording video in 640X480 with H.264 compression?

    I need to make extended (>1hr) recordings in 640X480 with my MacBook's built-in iSight.
    QuickTime Pro only seems to be able to record video at 320X240 with compression or 640X480 without compression (which takes around 1GB per minute!!).
    Is there a way to get it to record at 640X480 with H.264 compression?
    If not, is there some other app that can acheive this feat in real time?
    (I've tried iVeZeen but it just stores the uncompressed video and later compresses it, which means that I run out of disk space just as quickly as with the uncompressed QT option)
    Any ideas would be much appreciated.

    Use Broadcaster:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/broadcaster/
    It's free from Apple...you can save the file to the HD instead of broadcasting the video.

  • Android / IOS Record Video and play with it ?

    Is it possible to record video in Air 2.6 to mobile ?

    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?

  • How can i stream video and audio from macbook air to my tv?

    how can i stream video and audio from macbook air to my tv?

    Wirelessly: you need an AirPlay - enabled device such as an AppleTV.
    Wired: if your TV has an HDMI port, you need a Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter such as this one:
    Mini DisplayPort to HDMI® Adapter w/ Audio Support
    If your TV does not have an HDMI port you will need a converter that will convert HDMI input to whatever input your TV requires.

  • Can't recording  Midi  and Audio at the same time

    I'm in GREAT need of help. I can't record midi and audio at the same time. I'm using an M AUDIO project mix I/O. I know this is VERY basic stuff but I can't seem to get it to work.I can record multiple audio at once. ANd I can record midi but not at the same time. PLEASE help . Is there a setting somewhere I need to change ? Thanks

    Hi!
    Enable all audio tracks (R) you wish to record. Then make sure you select the audio instrument you are using on the left of the arrange page (track list). If you here your input, hold shift, then highlight (gray) the mentioned audio tracks you wish to record on. When R is red, and the proper tracks are grey, you can record. Hope that made sense!

    SImple first: try resetting it. Hold down the Sleep and the Home buttons until the Apple logo displays on the screen.  This will not have any effect on your data.
