Capture and transmit live media

I am doing a project that capture live media from a capture device and transmit it to a client. Currently I can capture and transmit, but the problem is when I start transmit, the local player stops playing. If I clone datasource and use the cloned datasource for transmitting, the local player does not stop after it starts transmitting, but the remote site can't receive any stream. In short, my problem is I can't make the local and remote sites play captured media simultaniously. I tried JM Studio and it works, but I can't understand how they implement it. It seems that they didn't use cloned datasource. Anyone who have this kind of experience please help me. Thanks a lot.

If you want to display video while transmiting it you can use the MonitorControl. Consult the jmf guide and solutions or this same forum.
But MonitorControl can be a complex solution, specially if you want to monitor video+audio.
You can also use clones. You need undestand that the clones depend of its original datasource, so this origin have to be connected to the clone works. Consult google or this same forum to more info.
Regards.

Can I capture and record live feed on "Final Cut Pro X"?

I am an intern at my church and we are wanting to finish upgrading everything to mac at the church but we are needing a program that can capture live feed and later edit it so that I can create TV programs; hence, why I am needing to know can Final Cut Pro X capture live feed and record it? Along with that I need to know can I import avi. video files into Final Cut Pro X and it still allow me to edit them for our TV program? Thank you ahead of time for all of your help. Right now we are capturing in SD and I need to make sure it will also not be a problem capturing in SD and will make a smooth transition when we go to HD.

See here:
Re: import live video hvr v1e
The above discusses HDV over firewire which is high def, DV will be the same deal.
So it depends on what type of camera you are going to use.
If you jump to an AVCHD USB cam the game changes.
So far I'm not aware of a direct import method.
There are workarounds with additional equipment at present.

RCA capture cable to Flash Media Live Encoder

Hi,
Last year I streamed a live event through a capture cable to Flash Media Encoder. Unfortunately I can't locate that cable and cannot remember the model we used. Can anyone advise on the best capture cable to use?
RCA to firewire or RCA to USB?
I have a startech SVID2USB2 cable (with female RCA to USB) which is giving me a blank or green preview window in Flash Media Encoder.
Would RCA to firewire work?
Regards Bruce

Hi Brusca,
I am not sure which capture card are you using. FMLE should work fine with Firewire input and with any capture card that take input from RCA cable. Input throgh USB is generally not preferable for very high quality input.

Capture Card for Flash Live Media Encoder

Hello,
I need help finding the best capture card for the flash live media encoder. Any suggestions?

The problem you have is that your game and FMLE are competing for CPU time. Running FMLE is very CPU-intensive because of the work of encoding video. When FMLE consumes all your CPU there is nothing left to run the game. Instead of cropping I would suggest that you change your monitor resolution to 1280x720 (this is still HD, just not 1080 "full HD"). Increasing the screen size then cropping it back down is just another task you are throwing at the CPU that it can't cope with.

My MacBook cannot resolve the alias when attempting to connect to LAN wired devices (WD Live Media Centre), and says operation can't be comp-leted because the original item can't be found.???

I have 2 WD Live Media Centre devices hard-wired on my LAN. My MacBook can find these devices on the network, but when it tries to access the USB drive which is attached to the media centres, a message says the Mac it "resolving the alias to USB drive", but then says operation can't be completed because the roiginal item (USB Drive) can't be found. My PC, which is also hard-wired on the network, has no problem accessing these USB drives. Is there some adjustment I need to make?

Well, try this (I was able to fix my with these steps):
Go Utilities > Disk Utility
Select your Startup Disk, e.g. Macintosh HD
Then, under the First Aid Tab, click Verify Disk Permissions.
If there are errors, then click repair Disk Permissions.
After it is done, restart the computer and see if your problem is resolved.
I hope this help.

Live Conferencing, capturing and maybe editing....

To those who are familiar with this...
Here is the script...
I work part time for a firm who do audio visuals for Mainly Conferences and events in the Channel Island, UK.
Most of these events require Camera work, for live projections with visual desk mixing. Each camera would have tapes in and press record when the event would start. Coming out of the mixing desk would be connected a Sony DV recorder that records live what shows on the screen.
Up until now, when clients required a DVD of the event, we would bring the tapes back inhouse, log and capture, and start editing..
Problem starts here....
The Live Mixed tape recorded is not good enough for DVD play back for two reasons.
1. for example of a pointpower presentation which would drag on the screens, would not be required on the DVD for such a long time, therefore editing is required.
2. Slides, photos coming out of PC/Mac would go through scan converters in order to fit the screen in the room. Losing the aspect ratio of 4:3 or 16:9.
SO....
We have come to the conclusion that what ever is mixed live for the screens is not good enough for the DVD, and we need to edit for DVD seperatly. Cannot use the live mixed tape. We must use each camera feed seperatly for editing and the slides, PP presentations or keynote seperate...
How do we do this quickly? What I mean by quickly is, yes of course we could bring all tapes back to the studio and capture them, a series of Mac, each having a player, each capturing at the same time.....That requires time... and most events finish at 2am...
Question 1:
The idea is to Capture straight from Cameras (keeping the tapes in cameras as backup) straight into a powermac. This is to save capturing time....
How do we do this?
Question 2:
FCP support Multicam editing. But as far as I understand it, this is only post production. Or is it not? Can we edit live straight from the camera feed?
Question 3:
Would a capture card slove our problem? something like a blackmagic decklink?
The last option we have left is to invest into a new Visual desk, split the feed from the cameras, and create a second mixing/editing desk, first one being for live projection, and this second new one being for DVD production, mixing using a visual desk, recording this to tape, being left with only one tape to capture which will still need a few twicks to fix on FCP.
What do you reckon?
I know this is a long thread, but trying to be as clear as possible....
Thanks in Advance...

thank you all 3 for your replies.....
I sort of knew the answer to my own questions but was hoping for some sort of magic trick to sort our problems....
Yes those conference, ball, events are important... big budget, big nights.... But thats no problem... it is turning around the job quick that is difficult.... and hte more time consuming is capturing....
I have more ideas now on how best and quick to do the job....
Picture ready is over budget I am afraid....
Thanks again...

Mplayer and live-media

Just a suggestion for mplayer in testing. Make it depend on live-media and compile with --enable-live --with-livelibdir=/usr/lib/live-media/
Although I still can't watch the MacWorld Expo stream from here: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/mwsf05/ :cry:

Live directory's in /usr/lib/live/liveMedia in my box, wich has live 2006.01.05-1 & mplayer-cvs compiled with live support.
Modified PKGBUILD :
--enable-live --with-livelibdir=/usr/lib/live
Still I cannot play that stream neither

Live capture and editing?

Hi all, is it in any way possible to use a clip on a timeline while its still being captured? I´m planing to capture a live feed and put together some sort of highlights. Has anybody tried this? Do I need one Mac to capture and another for editing? The incoming signal is SDI.
thanks

The only way I know of to do this is quite expensive, involving Xsan, Gserve, two FCPs, and a piece of software called 'Picture Ready'

What for a live event capture and edition ?

Hi there,
What software is best for a live event capture and edition ? (for an instant public feedback) a one with the ability to be controlled by a 2-octave midi keyboard.
Can FCP do that ? even partly ?
The idea is to be able to do the same then tv shows (live cuts and effect layers)
thanks,
Ionel

FCP is a professional non-linear editing application ... not a live event playback device.
If you need a very fast turnaround editing facility you can look at FCP coupled with something like Picture Ready from Gallery, you can download a demo to test
if you're looking at doing a 2 camera live cut/switch then you can consider a dual decklink I/O solution and On-Air 2.0

Audio video capture and combination Nintendo64

Hi
I was hoping that someone could help me with mixing a video and audio signal for live playback.
I have a N64 with its video component hooked up to my TV capture card, and the audio connected to the line in on my sound card.
the computer i'm using has a fresh install of arch, with xfce. I currently just have alsa installed, as far a sound stuff goes and everything is working fine.
right now i can see the video from my nintendo with "QT V4L2 test utility" which is all good. I can't make this video full screen or any bigger. I do know i can use cheese to view the video in full screen, but it does not handle any audio.
so, what program can i use? or how can i play captured audio live?? is there a program (something like cheese or not) that can handle the capture and playback of both audio and video????? the latter is prefered
any input would be good, some ideas could help me along
thanks guys

ok cool VLC seems like a good option, i can capture the video just fine becasue i know the video device name is /dev/video0 but i don't know what the audio device name is..
i have been looking online for a way to find this out. but i have not yet found a way to tell me what the audio device name is for my sound card. (i have the audio input connected to a PCI sound card)
i just found this which helped a bit
http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=81166
it turns out that when i have a look the sound card i want to use is alsa://plughw:0,0
so i go -> show more options -> play another media synchrously and enter alsa://plughw:0,0. all goes well

Capture and streaming audio and video

JavaFX supports capture and record audio and video and need some streaming server as woonza, red5, flash media server to play the streaming?

JavaFX does not support flash streaming.
JavaFX does support http live streaming: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Live_Streaming
JavaFX does not support audio/video capture (there are other java/native libraries that do that).
See:
Video camera capture/streaming: example implementation "Thread: Video camera capture/streaming: example implementation"
http://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-3458 "Camera and Microphone" (go vote for this jira to get some capture technology built into JavaFX).

Capturing and editing on my primary drive?

I have two-500GB drives in my new Macpro, and I do not see how I could ever fill up the drive with the OS and applications installed (seems kind of a waste). I have read that it is not recommended to capture and edit video on the drive that contains the os and applications, and it should be done on a secondary drive.
1. What specifically is the problem with capturing and editing video on the primary drive?
2. Will partitioning the drive with the OS and applications installed, and capturing to the separate partition make a difference?
Thank you.

1. OSX creates a great deal of disk activity. Not only is the disk trying to feed the OS and the application commands, it also hosts the System Cache where RAM overflow goes to live until needed.
Adding the demands of REAL TIME media spooling (read/write) to this really busy disk can overwhelm it - leading to dropped frames etc.
2. Partitioning does not solve it. It is still one physical disk and subject to all the same demands as spelled out in #1 above. Partitioning may make some sense in organizing material but it will do nothing for system performance. Indeed, there is some evidence it will reduce realtime performance.
If you need more drive space, for fastest performance, get a PCI based esata card and add a series of external sata devices. FW800 drives will work quite well as well - especially for DV, HDV and uncompressed SD.
good luck.
