Help Canon XHA1s does not work correct with my Premiere Elements 10.. What do I do wrong?

Wrong forum, I'm afraid. This is the Audition forum, and you need the Premiere one.

Best workflow for Canon 7D (progressive) and Canon HX-A1s (interlaced)

I have been doing 2 shot interviews using the Canon 7D and Canon HX-A1s. What is the highest quality and most efficient workflow in 29.27 fps with the 7D being progressive and the XH-A1s is interlaced? I have been converting the 7D footage to ProRes 422 (HQ).
What Capture Preset is best for HX-A1s and Sequence Preset for radiating?
Your help would be most appreciated.

If you have the space, capture as ProRes....you can do that via firewire. If you are short, then capture as HDV and just work with it with a green render bar over the footage, and render later. Mixing formats is pretty easy as long as your sequence settings are ProRes.
And your interlaced camera will take on a progressive look. If you are OK with that.

Firewire port for Canon XH-A1s camera

I am considering buying a Canon XH-A1s camera. However, I would have to connect it to a firewire port, and don't currently have one on my macbook. Is there any way to have one installed? (also, I've heard that USB to Firewire adapters don't work for this purpose).

No, Apple dropped the firewire port on the White Unibody MacBooks in 2009. If you you need a firewire port you'll have to upgrade to a MacBook Pro or get a used pre-2009 MacBook.

Help! Canon XH-A1S capture problems in Win 7x64, CS3

I was thinking of buying the Canon XH-A1S so I rented one for the weekend. I need to have this camera up and running for tomorrow (yikes!) and have been fighting all evening to get it to work.
My original goal was to do some live streaming at an event tomorrow (not absolutely critical to live stream, but it would be nice). However, I can't get beyond the point of trying to get drivers (none shown on the Canon site) and to get the camera capture working in Premiere.
Can anyone help? I've tried a number of the things suggested, starting with rebooting/powering off and turning on again, to changing the order that things are turned on and off. The camera shows up in the device manager, but the manufacturer is shown as unknown.
The canon manual is pretty cryptic and brief when it comes to its PC connection instructions, so that's not helpful. I'm going to download a trial for CS5, but from reading the forums it sounds of things other have been able to get this camera to work with CS3 & CS4.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer! If anyone knows of a good, fast resource I can use to get the firewire to live stream working, I'd also really apprecaite that. I was planning on doing the live stream on ustream tomorrow.

Canon XH-A1s compatibity with iMovie HD 6

Will iMovie HD 6 work with the Canon XH-A1s camcorder to make HD movies?

Not hard to find out by Googling:
http://www.internetvideomag.com/Articles2009/040709CanonXH-A1s.htm
As far as I can see it connects by Firewire and produces a DV stream, so you should be good to go!

Optimum picture quality Canon XH A1s to FCE

Hi,
I have been experimenting with a Canon xh a1s camera to FCE and am wondering if anyone can help with finding the best settings to maximise image quality transfer.
I have shot some tests in HD using various filters, etc. and set the frame rate to 25. The output on the camera is set for HDV.
Connecting to FCE via firewire, in Easy Setup is it better to use:
Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i50
or
one of the Codec settings for 1920, 1440?
What is the optimum setting?
Thanking you in advance.
Regards,

Hi Skalicki,
Thanks very much for your reply. I will set it as you suggest but am just wondering if 1920 gives better quality? Sorry I'm a bit confused by this and appreciate your help.
Regards,

Canon XH-A1s not detected by Adobe OnLocation CS5

Hi All,
I recently purchased the Canon XH-A1s HDV Camcorder.
I've hooked the camera up the my 2011 MacBook Pro (8GB RAM, Quad Core i7 Processor) and am wanting to use Adobe OnLocation to record monitor footage as it is shot.
However, when I open Adobe OnLocation the camera is not detected and I just get the standard "No Video Input Available".
I've had a look at the Mac OS X System Profiler, under the FireWire section and the Camera is detected fine, so I know there isn't a problem with the FireWire 800 cable.
My current steps are as follows:
With camera turned off connect FireWire cable from the Camera to the MacBook Pro.
Open Adobe OnLocation.
Create a new project.
Turn the camera on.
Does anyone have any thoughts? Am I doing anything wrong/not doing something?
All help is greatley appreciate.
Thanks,
Oliver

I've managed to get Adobe OnLocation to detect the XH-A1.
OnLocation does not automatically detect the camera when in Manual mode, or any of the other preset modes for that matter.
The camera needs to be set to the very first option (before the VCR mode - I forget it's name).

I have a Canon Vixia HV30 and would like to know if I can transfer video from it to a new MacBook Pro? The camcorder has a HDV/DV output. Is that compatible with firewire?

Canon iR C5185i and Lion - Dept ID Management

I've been doing a lot of digging around and I can't find too much relating to Lion, but if this question has been answered for the most recent version of OSX then I would greatly appreciate a link. Most of the answers I find are for Snow Leopard and applying the same tricks just don't seem to work. I've got a Macbook Pro with all software updates.
We have a Canon ImageRunner C5185i here in our office. We have Department ID Management enabled for color printing. I've tried every available combination of drivers from Canon's site and I just can't seem to get our department ID's to pass through to the printer, even though I've stored them in the printer settings.
Most of the time, if I can even get the print job to make it to the printer, the status says "On hold (Authentication required)". Even if I get into the printer settings and enter my department ID, it won't let me verify the ID against the copier. It almost always fails. I've enabled the "Job Accounting" in the driver settings and put my department ID in the driver utility. My current status, which is the closest to success I've gotten, is that the job makes it to the printer and simply says "Printer is in use. Waiting for the print job to finish." There are no other print jobs in memory on the device. I'm using the Canon iR C5185 UFR II (US) driver at this time and it seems to get me closer than any other driver from Canon.
I was hoping that someone could walk me through finding what drivers I'd need and any tips for making sure my department ID passes through to the device for authentication. I'm fully capable of following the most technical directions you have, but explain it to me like I'm 5 to make sure I don't miss anything.

I probably should have mentioned that this device is primarily shared out on our Windows server, but I've also tried printing to IP. Ideally, we would like to use the Windows queue, but I'll take what I can get.
If you want to use Dept ID from the Mac then you won't be able to print via the Windows server. To support Dept ID the Mac driver needs bidirectional communication with the printer, and it does not get this when printing via a Windows queue - even if you enable LPD. Also, with printing via Windows, your Mac should use the Canon PPD due to issues with the PS and UFR2 drivers via shared queues and the PPD does not support Dept ID''s.
I disabled Department ID Management and got the following results:
Print to IP with UFR driver - "Printer in user. Waiting for the print job to finish". (Printer was not in use at the time)
Print to IP with PS driver - Job hangs in queue (Job sent to printer 100%)
Print to IP with PPD - Job hangs in queue ("The printer is busy")
With the PS and UFR2 drivers failing, it would suggest that the LPR in the iR C5185 is turned off, as this is the default protocol both of these drivers use - regardless of what IP protocol you select when adding the queue. As for the PPD, this will use whatever IP protocol you select. So if you did select LPD then this would confirm the matter.
So using the Remote UI (that's the name of the internal web page of the copier) you can select Additional Functions > Custom Settings > Network Settings > TCP/IP and check that LPD is enabled. Note that the path I just wrote could be missing a parameter - I just typed it from memory.
Print to Windows share with UFR driver - "The printed output may be incorrect because the printer information has not been acquired. Start Printer Utility to get the printer information"
-An error occurred.: -50
-Starting Printer Utility does not gather printer information
Print to Windows share with PS driver - Job sent to printer, error NG #853
Print to Windows share with PPD - 21 pages printed out, mostly blank, first page has error ""%!PS-Adobe-3.0, %APL_DSC_Encoding: UTF8, %APLProducer: (Version 10.7.4 (Build 11E53)
For the first two, not surprised with those results because as mentioned above, the UFR2 and PS drivers don't work that well - or at all - when configured to print via a Windows print queue. They must be configured on the Mac to print directly to the imageRUNNER.
The last one is a concern, because it would normally be a sign that the printer does not support Postscript. Do you know which printer driver the Windows computers are using? If they are using the UFR2 driver then maybe your iR C5185 does not have Postscript, which will stop you using the PS and PPD on the Mac. If no one is sure what printer language the iR C5185 supports you can check via the Remote UI. Again via Additional Functions > Custom Settings you should see Printer Settings. And under this heading will be the printer languages supported. If you see UFR2 and maybe PCL (which Windows could also be using) but no PS then this will limit you to using the UFR2 driver on the Mac.

Would this work better if we were to access the server through OSX Server? Right now, our Macbooks are bound to our Windows domain.
No. Like Windows server, OS X server does not support Dept ID for clients either. And until you determine what protocol the iR C5185 supports, the server queue will give the same errors as you got on the Mac client.
So in summary, three things to check;
Does the iR C5185 support Postscript (PS)
Is the LPR protocol enabled in the TCP/IP settings
Which printer driver are the Windows computers using

I have an iP4500, which I assume is quite similar to your model.
I had to reset the printing system to get things printing again. Only takes a few minutes and no problems at all since I did it a week ago or so.
Plug the printer into the USB port on the Express and restart the printer.
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock) and then open Print and Fax
Right-Click in the printer area on the left and select Reset Printing System
Then click the + (plus) button at the bottom of the printer list to install the printer again.

How are you importing it?
Can you find the external audio with Finder?
Where is your destination file when you import it?

Recently upgraded to a Canon Mark 3 and now having issues with my RAW files in Bridge and Photoshop. I am operating with CS4. Photoshop produces an error " Could not complete your request because photoshop does not recognize this type of file"

Recently upgraded to a Canon Mark 3 and now having issues with my RAW files in Bridge and Photoshop. I have operating with CS4. Photoshop produces and error " Could not complete your request because photoshop does not recognize this type of file"

Assuming you mean 5D Mark III, Photoshop CS4 cannot directly open raw files from your camera.
Generally speaking, Adobe stopped updating older versions to be able to read raw files from newer cameras when they released a new major version of Photoshop. Photoshop CS4 is no longer receiving Camera Raw updates.
You can double check this yourself:
First you need to determine whether Adobe has released support for your new camera in your version of Photoshop. To do that, look at these two pages. You'll want to find out the earliest version of Camera Raw that can support your camera, then what version of Photoshop can run that version of Camera Raw.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
If you find your camera is supported by your version of Photoshop, you need to download the latest update for Camera Raw. There's more information on how to do that here:
Keeping Photoshop Up-To-Date
If your version of Photoshop cannot support your camera, you can download and install the latest version of the free Adobe DNG Converter, which can take your raw files as input and put out DNG format files, which your version of Photoshop can open.
Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG)
The DNG converter DOES work, but if you want maximal quality from your raw files (not to mention the convenience and ease of use of directly opening your raw files) you'll want the latest version of Photoshop. Adobe has made substantial improvements in raw conversion quality in recent years.

I am using a Canon 640 printer and my MPNavigator will not remain open. It pops open then quickly closes. I've used it for several years but it just started doing this. What can I do to fix this problem?

I am using a Canon 640 printer and my MPNavigator will not remain open. It pops open then quickly closes. I've used it for several years but it just started doing this. What can I do to fix this problem?

I had a similar problem with a Canon MP800R under Mac OS X 10.9.2 Mavericks.
In my case, the MP Navigator app in the dock was linking to the wrong file.
It linked to Applications > MP Navigator 2.1.app > Contents > Resources > MP Navigator.app, but it should link to the "main" app, probably under Applications > MP Navigator 2.1.app.
After pulling the correct MP Navigator app file to the dock, I can start MP Navigator again by clicking on it in the dock. However, when clicking on it, a second MP Navigator icon will show up in the dock and stay there until the app is closed. By the way, the MP800R scanner also works (although officially not supported by Canon).
