Canopus ADVC100 & Tiger don't work

I've been using the Canopus ADVC100 to digitize video for years and it's worked great, until I upgraded my G5 to 10.4.2. Then suddenly the ADVC was no longer recognized by the G5. I called Canopus and they said it's a known problem with the new system software. They recommended reinstalling Quicktime (which I tried with no luck) or reinstalling the system software (they've got to be kidding..) They said the same problem exist with their newer ADVC110. So that means that all our trusty Canopus boxes are now headed for the garbage..
Can anybody recommend a video digitizing box that works with Tiger?
thanks

Marty,
Tried your suggestion but Canopus still doesn't work.
Jeff,
You said you used to use BTV until you upgraded to Tiger, then you upgraded to QTime Pro and the Canopus worked. Did it work with BTV or QTime Pro or just QTime Pro? (At the moment I'm waiting for my QTime Pro authorization).
If I leave the Canopus pluged into firewire it also now causes crashes in Toast, Toast doesn't seem to recognize the device anymore (although worked fine pre-Tiger)

  • Canopus ADVC100 Problems (Digial to Analog)

    Hi,
    I have a Canopus ADVC100 which I have been using for over two years
    for analog to digial conversion and it's been working great. I just started
    a new project in Final Cut Pro Studio where I was using the ADVC100 to
    bring in some analog footage and then I was using the Digial to Analog
    conversion to view the output on a Monitor. It's the usual way that I work.
    Anyway, the A to D conversion went fine but now I can't get the D to A
    conversion to allow me to view the output on the monitor. It's very frustrating. A to D works fine. D to A doesn't work and Final Cut Pro seems
    to know that it doesn't work as it plays the sound on the computer rather than out to the monitor. I've checked my cables. Flipped the switches on the
    ADVC100. Tried plugging the firewire cable into a LaCie Firewire port that
    further down the daisy-chain. Tried the bigger pinned firewire cable. Nothing seems to work. It allows me to import but not to export. Strange...
    I'm in between two project. Just ended one and started a new one.
    I don't recall updating any software. Is it possible I just burned out
    the ADVC100? Up to this point this unit has been totally reliable.
    Sincerely yours,

    Checked under Audio/Video settings. It looked right. Tonight I put a DV camera on the end of the firewire line and did a print to video. That worked.
    Tried to do a print to Video to the ADVC100- it did it but nothing came through. Couldn't find a way to get the DV camera to Show the Desktop as I worked though... Hmmm....

  • IMovie firewire to Canopus ADVC100 playback?

    Is there a way to play iMovie back thru a Canopus ADVC100 via firewire to a regular video monitor?
    Do I need a driver to steer the output to the firewire port?

    Hi

  • My mouse don't work...

    Hi,
    I'm french so I hope you'll excuse my english...:-)
    I have a problem with my mouse. It's an apple optical mouse. Sometimes, she don't work, she block and I can't move it. Sometime's, it works. It's plugged on my keyboard by USB.
    I have change my mouse, same problem. I have change my keyboard, same problem. I have tried all USB ports, same problem. I think it is not a mouse problem, but a driver or something like that problem, because it's wrote "optical mouse" in the system profiler, in "USB". Can you help me ?
    Thank you...

    It would probably be worth your time to install the 10.5.8 combo updater again.
    But before you do so, have you tried a bit of maintenance?
    Repairing permissions is important, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
    Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
    In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
    This only takes a minute or two in Tiger, but much longer in Leopard.
    Background information here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751
    and here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302672
    An article on troubleshooting Permissions can be found here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963
    By the way, you can ignore any messages about SUID or ACL file permissions, as explained here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448?viewlocale=en_US
    If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
    Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

  • Safari in tiger broken, firefox works

    Installed Tiger, Safari stopped working. Firefox works. Internet Explorer doesn't work. Just tried updating to 10.2 (automatic updates don't work either), and still the same.
    Symptom: Safari tries to open home page (google), times out with blank page. Same with all other pages tried. Message is: "Safari can’t open the page.
    Safari could not open the page “http://www.google.com/” because the server stopped responding."
    Network connection is through airport connecting to DSL modem using PPPoE. Network preferences look fine.
    Many network connections work fine; FireFox (now used to post this), Mail, ssh to other hosts, etc.
    I tried turning on the debug menue and playing around, but no magic appeared. Page Load Test finishes with status OK, but page hasn't loaded.
    Wits end... thanks for any help.

    Hi Norman, a better log to look at would be ~/library/crash reporter/safari.
    Have you tested with a hard wired connection? Have you tried entering an ip number? Try this in Safari:
    http://17.254.0.91/
    What do you mean in your first post " Just tried updating to 10.2 (automatic updates don't work either), and still the same"? I got confused because your specs say 10.4.2 but if you mean you haven't yet updated to 10.4.2 because you can't download it through SU, then there is a better option.
    First repair Permission and DIsk:
    Repair Permissions: This should be done BEFORE and AFTER all software installs and updates.
    1. Navigate to Utilities/DiskUtility and launch Disk Utility.
    2. Choose your volume (usually the second icon)
    3. Choose "First Aid" tab
    4. Click on "Repair Permissions"
    Repair Disk:
    Steps for using Disk Utility
    1. Insert your Mac OS X CD-ROM disc or Restore DVD disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key until you see the spinning gear..
    2. Once started up from CD or DVD, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from disc to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume, if necessary.
    6. Click Repair.
    If you repair errors run it until no errors found.
    Now, you may be able to repair this with the 10.4.2 Stand Alone Combo Update.
    This is a full install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before. It has worked well for many.
    Good luck, let us know.

  • Streamed events don't work: Timed Out message

    I know I've posted a message here on this subject, so please forgive me.
    The problem I've got is that my admin account can't successfully see any of the Apple webcasts. Quicktime launches and goes through a negotiation process but then just times out. Changing the streaming protocol to HTTP80 doesn't work, when this is selected I simply get "connection failed".
    The odd thing is that a standard user account that I'd previously set up on the computer works like a charm, no problems at all. So, what's up do you think?
    The even odder thing is, if I now add another user account to the machine then the behaviours of the new account match that of my main admin account. ie, Quicktime webcasts don't work.
    I've tried the deleting the webplugin but that has had little or no positive effect.
    Any advice is very welcome, short of re-installing my system (which I'm almost tempted to do!!)
    Best regards

    *A few suggestions:*
    Repair permissions & restart your computer.
    Check your QT MIME Settings.
    System Preferences>Quicktime>Advanced
    Click on the MIME Settings button.
    In the next window that opens up make sure that Streaming-Streaming movies is enabled (checked).
    While you’re at it make sure all the boxes are enabled by clicking on the corresponding triangles so that they are pointed down.
    This will show the “hidden” boxes especially the Video box. This box will enable you to play .avi files.
    Click the OK button.
    Now click Streaming
    Your settings you should be (as starters):
    Streaming Speed: Automatic
    Make sure Enable Instant-On is enabled (checked).
    Now click on Browser
    Make sure:
    Play movies automatically
    Save movies in disk cache
    Are both enabled.
    Movie download Cache Size: Slider set all the way to the left.
    Restart your computer.
    Consider updating your OS to the last & latest Tiger version - 10.4.11 along with all other updates that goes with it from the Software Update control panel.

  • Since the last update (10.4.11) most URL streams don´t work with QT 7.3

    Hi,
    since I updated the last time (OS X 10.4.11) in most URL the QT-streams don´t work, for ex. also in YOUTUBE. I allways see the QT-sign overlayed with a questionmark. On apple-URL´s evrything works fine. Before updaing, evrything worked perfectly anywhere.
    THNX for help

    QT with a ? refers to Flash video.
    These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
    It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3.0.4, QT 7.3 and OS 10.4.11.
    Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.9 or above (this has not yet been verified with Leopard) and have Quicktime 7.2 or above, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
    RealPlayer 10 for Mac from http://forms.real.com/real/player/blackjack.html?platform2=Mac%20OS%20X&product= RealPlayer%2010&proc=g3&lang=&show_list=0&src=macjack
    Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
    Perian from http://perian.org/
    Adobe FlashPlayer from http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.)
    In Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
    In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them).
    Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them).
    Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz.
    Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
    The world should now be your oyster!
    You should also have the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.

  • What ordinary tasks don't work with OS X 10.3.9 ?...

    Thank you folks !
    a.
    What kinds of users might not need to upgrade from OS X 10.3.9 yet?...
    b. What ordinary tasks don't work with OS X 10.3.9 ?...
    c. What other tasks don't work with OS X 10.3.9 ?...

    Hi everyone and hi fugnug,
    {quote:title=fugnug wrote:}
    There are many ordinary tasks that don't work with Panther. Browsing with Safari is a good instance. That seems to be a Mac thing, even though Safari 2 and 3 aren't for Panther, so the browsing experience just isn't as good. Safari 1 is fast, but it just won't run newer developer's scripts. The sad thing about Safari being a Mac thing is that it is supported on Windows Xp which is just as old as Panther.{quote}
    It is disappointing safari 2&3 isn't supported by Panther. But, ya know we gotta
    live with it. Windows XP is Microsoft. Panther users really don't need it with free/donationware like OpenOffice and NeoOffice. You can also try FileJuicer and
    purchase it for a small price, and it can come in really handy if you need to open Windows type documents and Stuffit deluxe for Mac can open some of them too.
    Safari 1 has a few substitutes that work very well and are current and supported.: like Seamonkey, iCab, Camino. Firefox is no longer updated current for Panther though.
    {quote}
    Another common thing like a dashboard isn't really supported.
    {quote}
    Yahoo widgets works for Panther and it's a really nice App. It was Konfabulator before Tiger was out.
    {quote}
    Also most freeware developers don't make their programs supported by Panther these days. A very common dismay for Panther users is to see a really great program and download it eagerly forgetting to look at the req-specs and then get the little disappearing icon on the dock. That crash should come with a fog horn sound effect, it would really be a good metaphor for that feeling you get. Not just freeware, but newer software like Adobe CS3. (Of course, if you had the money to buy CS3, you could probably sprig for Leopard{quote}
    There's plenty to keep you more than productive available on Versiontracker.com
    with lots and lots of older panther compatible versions. (Although not all of them are still in the severs. Just check the versions in the preview of the source at the bottom of your browser.
    {quote}
    Screen-shots is common task; AppleShift3(4). You can only save in PDFs, which we all know you can't upload to Photobucket. So you have to export from Preview, which is reminiscent of Print Screen and paste into Paint in Windows (a total turn off). I've heard there was a way to change it and I think I found a tutorial once about how to change the save screen format... but I think it was actually for Tiger, because it didn't work for me /fog horn{quote}
    You can export from preview to other formats easily by clicking on File/Export..
    Sure though, some things out there don't work on panther. Like free songs from Amazon require a special downloader compatible with 10.4.x and higher.
    If you want to listen to full songs for free, there's sites out there that let you type in what you want to listen to and you can stream it in from your browser.
    Some sites like nintendo and probably others require Firefox. So, yes. Time is ticking against panther.
    I'm in the serious consideration stage of upgrading to Tiger or Leopard. For some
    things on the Web we need to stay current. Honestly, now a days everyone who uses
    a computer needs to.
    But, Panther is a very fun and snappy OS for me. I'll miss it's simplicity and humbleness. It's been totally awesome for my family and me! It's had it's shortcomings, but I look forward to a bright future in upgrading.

    If you want the timer to be executed every 2 seconds you should write :
    @Schedule(second = "0/2")This means the timer will start at second 0 and expire every 2 seconds.

  • "Enable Swipe" don't work and Tablet Layout on a Smartphone

    Hi there,
    I have two big problems with my own site www.mhgrafikdesign.de:
    1. I have different slideshows in my tablet version of my site. I created the slideshow before one of the updates with the feature "Enable swipe" came out. However, it worked well on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1n. Now I have a Microsoft Surface and it's not working anymore although "Enable Swipe" is enabled. I don't know if the Microsoft Surface has problems with the slideshow or one of the updates has "damaged" my slideshow. Please help me! Any ideas?
    2. I have a HTC 8S smartphone and if I type www.mhgrafikdesign.de my smartphone always show me the tablet version. Any idea why? P.S. Swiping there is also not possible.
    Many thanks for quick help. My website is my flagship in the web and it's a little bit embarrassing if my slideshow on the tab don't work... = /

    This is now a slideshow created with Muse: Homepage
    The slideshow uses fullscreen mode and was build with the latest version of Muse. On my Win8-Tablet, it is not working. I tested this with the IE11 in desktop- and in modern-ui-mode.
    Next to this problem, I also run into these things:
    1. Using the buttons to go forward and backward in the slideshow will select the text-arrow inside the button when touched.
    2. Clicking the forward- and backward-button behaves different. Windows Desktop -> slideshow does not roll back, so you can click forever in one direction, no feedback that you reached the end. On iOS -> slideshow will be rolled back and you get the visual feedback to start over again.
    3. Zoom into the fullscreen-slideshow will result in strange and not really controllabel behaviour. Zooming in does not allow to pan.
    But I am not talking only about the phones. It is more about windows tablets in general. So, content can be viewed in the InternetExplorer11 in desktop-mode and also in modern-UI-mode (touch does work in both modes). But it is also possible, that people use other browsers like Firefox and Chrome. I think, it would be a quite a good idea to translate the movement of the mousepointer into gestures. This javascript library shows what I think is a good aproach: Hammer.JS - Hammer.js

  • Adobe Flash & Javascript don't work even though Enabled

    Ever since what I think was either a Firefox upgrade (I don't know which one) or installation of Quicktime, my Adobe Flash Plugin is perpetually crashed and I cannot play any Flash content on any website. All that displays in place of the video is a gray screen with the sad-face Lego icon and the message: “The Adobe Flash Plugin has crashed. Please reload the page to try again.” (See attached image.) But it will not resolve when reloaded.
    No Flash videos on any sites work. HTML5 videos work on YouTube when tested, but non-HTML5 videos won't work.
    Also, my Javascript does not seem to be working since at least some displays requiring javascript don't work. Sometimes the display just doesn't work, and sometimes I get a message that javascript is disabled and must be enabled, but it is already enabled (set to “true” in about:config).
    I have spent days scouring every help forum entry I can find on troubleshooting Flash Player and Javascript. Everything on my end seems to be in order and I cannot find or fix either problem. I think it is possible the issue could have its roots in the fact that Javascript seems to not be working which may be preventing Flash Player content from working...??
    Also, Flash content does work in I.E. but not in Firefox (I do not have Chrome installed so did not test in Chrome). I have too many window tabs open in Firefox and can't switch to I.E. (nor do I like to use I.E.).
    PLEASE HELP as this is crippling for very important work deadlines I have.
    This is what else I know and have tried:
    I have a Toshiba Satellite C75D-A Laptop;
    Processor: AMD A6-5200 APU with Radeon HD Graphics; x64; 2.00 Ghz;
    RAM: 8 MB;
    OS: 64-bit system; Windows 8.1 (but some auto-check utilities detect it as 8.0 because it was upgraded.);
    Graphics Card: “Desktop Graphics” System – AMD Radeon HD 8400 (0x9830);
    Installed Graphics Driver Version: AMD 13.352.1004.1007 (Driver Date: 4/22/2014)
    My Device Manager graphics driver updater states: “driver software is up to date.”
    From the AMD website: the graphics driver auto-detect utility recommended the AMD Catalyst Driver (amd-catalyst-omega-14.12-without-dotnet45-win8.1-64bit.exe) I tried installing this driver, but it won't install. After trying to install, I got a message stating: “We are unable to find a driver for your system.” But Device Manager states I have a current driver, and my graphics card & driver seem to be working fine, so I do not believe this is part of the issue.
    I am using Latest Firefox version 35.0.1; and
    Using Latest Flash Player: 32-bit NPAPI Plug-in Version: 16.0.0.296; designated: “always activate” (Downloaded new update several times, including fresh install after uninstall; system & web address icons indicate Flash is enabled).
    I turned off hardware acceleration in FF Tools>Options>Advanced>General
    I disabled WebGL as explained here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration
    I am using Ad-Block Plus which has never affected things in the past. I have not tried starting FF in Safe Mode because I believe I will lose all open tabs and not be able to recover them (I may have over 200 open). But disabling add-ons has no effect (I disabled all except for Sessions Manager in case of a crash). (My No-Script has been disabled for at least six months.)
    I have Windows Media Player and Quicktime installed.
    Quicktime is most recent upgrade (7.7.6) so should not be a problem according to:
    “QuickTime plugin takes over Flash” at:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Disabling_Protected_Mode_in_Flash_11.3
    (note underscores in place of spaces in string; underscores not insertable here)
    Disabling Quicktime had no effect in the prior version of FF (ver. 35.0), but in latest FF ver. 35.0.1, Flash videos only display a plain (blank) gray screen instead of the sad-faced icon and crash message.
    (I tried to uninstall Quicktime altogether, but was not able to due to Error codes 2502 & 2503. I tried troubleshooting that as well with no luck using methods successful for other programs, including here:
    http://www.fixkb.com/2014/01/error-2503-and-2502-when-uninstalling-on-windows-8.html;

    Disabling my FF theme and using the default brought back the sad-faced icon and crash message in the place of videos on some YouTube pages, but not other YouTube pages (where video was still blank gray screen). It also enabled a still Flash image (an ad) to display on a different website page that previously had a Flash Plugin crash message. I have been using this same theme for a couple of years without previous issue. While turning it off did generate an effect on some still imagery, it didn't fix the video problem.
    I tried Disabling Protected Mode in Flash 11.3 as explained here:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Disabling_Protected_Mode_in_Flash_11.3
    (note underscores in place of spaces in string; underscores not insertable here).
    It did not solve the issue.
    I also deleted all storage & data in Flash Player as advised. This had no effect either.
    I've tried all solutions I've been able to find and am at a loss for what to try next. Please help and advise ASAP. Thank you!!

    Thank you, guigs2! Sorry for my delayed reply...I didn't realize I hadn't gotten back to you. Update is that I did try a whole slew of other troubleshooting steps including starting FF in safe mode, to no avail. However, I was FINALLY (after months) able to solve this problem just today by pure chance!
    The problem was that hardware acceleration was enabled in the Flash settings. I had not been able to turn it off because I didn't have access to the Flash Player settings as long as the crash error message was visible, which was all the time! Today, by a sheer fluke, I saw a static picture in place of the crash message on a Flash video. I snagged the opportunity to call up the settings and turn off hardware acceleration, and it fixed the problem for my whole browser! This has been a frustrating issue because I did not have access to the settings utility as long as I had the crash message, which was always, so my Flash was crippled without the ability for me to fix it until pure luck gave me this window of opportunity.
    Does anyone know another way to access the settings utility if this ever happens again in the future? I could not find a way. (Incidentally, I had tried disabling hardware acceleration via my graphics driver settings, but it didn't fix the problem.) We need Adobe to allow some other way to access the Flash Player settings utility when this problem arises since they aren't accessible when there is a static crash message.
    Thanks again!

  • IPod Touch: apps (facebook, twitter, facetime) don't work properly with my wireless internet having worked perfectly before. Help needed!

    I got my iPod Touch 4g for Christmas 2011 and for the first 2 weeks everything worked fine - I could download apps; use apps to their full potential; use FaceTime; use everything.
    But after the two weeks, the iPod decided to no longer work as well as it had promised. First of all, it would take more than 2 hours to download a single app from the app store and then, straight after that, I couldn't connect to FaceTime (it had worked perfectly before). Then, finally, to top it all off - Facebook and Twitter stopped working on occasions. For example, I couldn't post/send messages or photos on Twitter and at the majority of the time, the News Feeds wouldn't load.
    Sometimes everything works but most of the time it doesn't. I've tried my iPod at every time of the day and it makes no difference - nothing still works! Also, I don't think it is the fault of my wireless internet because I've had an iPod touch before and it worked perfectly, and the laptop that I am writing this question on also works perfectly with wifi.
    The weird thing is that I have used my iPod to its full potential (everything worked fine) at my friends hosue on multiple occasions - using his wifi. I am really lost for ideas for what to do - I have uninstalled all the apps that don't work with the internet (facebook, twitter) and have always made sure that I have closed apps after using them, so that my iPod wouldn't run slow.
    My iPod has been like this for over a month now, help would be appreciated

    Do you have a blackberry data plan active. On your account? You need an active blackberry data plan to use the majority of data functions on your phone, even if you are connected to wifi 

  • TV don't work with OSX Server software?

    Everything worked great BEFORE I updated our MacMini Intel to OSX Server software, now iTunes can't find the recent found Apple TV. And therefore the connection is gone and the syncing don't work anymore.
    Any work-around or suggestions on how to solve this?
    Or do I have to revert to previus userversion of OSX to make it work again?
    Is there a limitation built into OSX Server software or is there maybe some kind of firewall / preferences etc that needs to be adjusted? (The built in firewall has been disconnected.)
    FYI:
    All apps are up to date. The Mac Mini + Apple TV is on my local network at home and I'm trying to make it my family's digital hub for all family-related media.
