Blackmagic Decklink SD. Only place to find those are on eBay or other used equip sites.

"fire wire" video capture cards for mac pro

....Have Power Mac ver. 10.9.5 system Maverick w/ 4 MB RAM & am trying to locate hardware for:
acquiring "FIRE WIRE" video capture cards for mac pro.... ? Any suggestions....?(Just purchased Adobe CS 5 premium)

Your question doesn't make much sense.
What type of Mac Pro do you have? Is it the new black cylinder or the old style silver tower?
Firewire is built-in to the old models & the new Mac Pros can use Thunderbolt to Firewire converters to capture from Firewire sources.
Maybe like this http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD464ZM/A/apple-thunderbolt-to-firewire-adapte r
Many older cameras used Firewire for capturing, but that has been replaced by other connection types. What are you trying to capture from?

Good capture cards for Mac?

Does anyone know of capture cards for Mac that work well for FMLE?
The list of tested cards in the Device Compatability Matrix only appear to be for Windows.
I see discussions about the Blackmagic cards, for example, that indicate those have problems in many situations.
Any tips are much appreciated.
Thanks,
Sage

Thanks! And the Canopus ADVC 110 is also external via firewire, which is
even better.
Cheers,

Power Mac Video Capture card for G5 Quad

Can anyone direct me to where I can get a video capture card for my Power Mac G5 Quad.
I would like to directly connect my DVD player to my G5.
Can I do this and what do I need and where can I get it. Thank you for your guidance!

Canto makes a nice firewire video digitizer for under $ 200 that will handle full (non-HD) resolution video. If you already have a mini-dv camera or can find a used one cheap (maybe one where the tape transport is bad) you can connect the camera to your G5 via Firewire, and then use the camera's auxiliary video and audio inputs to connect the source you want to digitize.

Video capture card for dul 1.4

Anyone know of a reasonably priced video capture card for archiving old video tapes?
g4 dual 1400 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

If you use iMovie, FCE, FCP, BTV or Live Capture and an analog-to-digital converter you can capture via Firewire; the converter will do the job of the capture card. One of the more popular models is the Canopus AVDC-110.

Video Capture Card for Adobe Connect

Does anyone have any recommendations for a video capture card for the Mac to use with Adobe Connect? I have a HD camera that I want to connect to my Mac through the S video connection on the camera. I need a video capture card that will work with Adobe Connect.

The Video Telephony Pod is the video pod when Video Telephony Conferencing equipment/cameras are configured to talk with Adobe Connect. This was introduced in Connect 8.1 for SIP and H.264 based VTC systems. It will only work with H.264 video streams from the VTC type cameras found in conference rooms. Usually the major players in the U.S. are Polycom and Tandberg.
The VTC Pod appears as a standard pod once the administrator of an Adobe Connect on-premise server has configured the various admin screens and added the SIP addesees to the configuration xml file.
The video quality is different than the webcam video as here is a table:
Tandberg 990:
Profile Level At FMG End
Video Out At Device
High
1200.0kbps 448p
Medium
600.0 kbps   448p
Low
250kbps       CIF
Tandberg Edge 95 MXP:
Profile Level At FMG End
Video Out At Device
High
1700 kbps w720p
Medium
600kbps    w448p
Low
250kbps    w288p
More information on formats:
768 x 448@30fps (w448p)
576 x 448@30fps (448p)
512 x 288@30fps (w288p)
352 x 288@30fps (CIF)
176 x 144@30fps (QCIF)
So, that HIGH, MEDIUM and LOW refer to the Adobe Connect room preference setting for video. Notice that HIGH shows we can deliver 720p resolution.
The normal webcam video pod is locked to 480p (VGA) 4x3 resolution at 20 frames per second but the server admin on an on-premise install can alter a configuration xml file to go 24 fps but not higher than VGA on the webcam pod.
Probably more than you ever imagined I would share but that's my style.
Take care.

HD/SD Blackmagic Capture Card for G5 Quad Power PC

Hi,
Can someone give me some advice on buying a good, reasonably priced capture card for my G5 powerpc quad. Its still running very well and I'd like to extend its professional use for a little bit
longer as I suspect that the next incarnation of desktops is possible months away.
I'm assuming a BlackMagic card is best suited due to my limited budget but I'm open to suggestion.

You haven't said what formats you're hoping to capture, but I'd imagine one of Blackmagic's Decklink cards would work for you (Intensity Pro is not compatible with non-Intel macs).
Pay attention to the hardware requirements though: http://blackmagic-design.com/support/detail.asp?techID=76

ATI 5770 1GB Video Card For Mac Pro dvi hdmi cable

I am sending video signal over a 50FT HDMI To DVI from my Mac Pro (3,1) via ATI 5770 1GB Video Card For Mac Pro (5.0 GT/s) (181062917108) and I cannot get a constant signal to my TV. The signal stays on for a few seconds or several hours or my TV (Samsung) says there is no signal or I get just a gray static screen.
I never had a problem before with my previous video card the 512MB nVidia GeForce 8800GT with a 25ft long cable. Any ideas people?

A cable of about 5 meters (16 ft) can be manufactured to Category 1 specifications easily and inexpensively by using 28 AWG (0.081 mm²) conductors.[114] With better quality construction and materials, including 24 AWG (0.205 mm²) conductors, an HDMI cable can reach lengths of up to 15 meters (49 ft).[114]
from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI
You may need a higher-quality cable or a lower resolution for your display to make this work without an HDMI Repeater.

Suggest me a usb sound card for mac mini

please suggest me a usb sound card for mac mini (i need 5.1 sound)

The Griffin Technology FireWave will give you the 3 'cables' ("FireWave outputs six channel audio through three 1/8” (3.5mm) stereo mini-jacks: Left/Right, Center/Subwoofer and Right Surround/Left Surround.") connection for surround sound (speakers) audio. Whether or not a particular headphone set is compatible, you might ask Griffin directly about that. If you're playing a DVD with VLC or the Apple DVD Player, you will get surround sound. But, you'd have to find an MP3 with multi-channel audio inside it to play surround sound out of iTunes.

CC 2014 and GTX 680 Graphics Card for Mac

I am using a NVIDA GTX 680 card for Mac and with Premiere CC and I can use the Mercury Engine with Cuda. I am running a Mac Pro 12 Core with OS 10.8.5. When I launched CC 2014 it told me to update the Cuda drivers for my card otherwise Premiere could not access the Cuda drivers. Question I have is does anyone know the driver numbers I need to have and do I have to upgrade to Mavericks to take advantage of the drivers. Once these drivers are installed will it interfere with using Cuda in Premiere CC?
Thanks
Mike

Yes, Premiere Pro CC adds full GPU acceleration certification for the GeForce GTX 680 on Mac.

Are there PCI thunderbolt cards for mac pro 3.1?

are there PCI thunderbolt cards for mac pro 3.1?

It's that last sentence I'm curious about. "However a MacPro already has much more capability already built in than Thunderbolt can add."
I'm thinking of getting a Mac Pro, but see that it doesn't seem to have Thunderbolt. I'm not sure if I care. The reason for the Mac Pro is that I'm topping out my 8gb RAM 27" iMac capacity with the volume of work going through it, and my tech tells me I'm pushing it too hard. I use it to run a small law office, but usually have about 15 apps open, with lots going on in the network in the background.
Is there any reason to wait until Apple puts Thunderbolt into the Mac Pro?
Thunderbolt will not increase the performance capability of the MacPro. It will add a bus that can be convenient, especially later on when Thunderbolt devices become more common, more mature and better supported - oh, and with more common will come less costly. From a pure performance standpoint the existing PCIe slots are much more capable and cheaper to implement. You would be giving up nothing with a current MacPro.
My opinion. Thunderbolt is really a great move forward in the long run - needed something to replace Firewire and this is it. But there is no reason to wait on Thunderbolt on MacPro - it is redundant.

Need OPTIONS for capture cards for Beta SP

Hi all...I'm a FC newbie and looking to upgrade from an OLD M100 system to a FC system. I would like to hear what you all have to say about
1. The capture card for digitizing Beta SP
2. Which card would be best (price and proformance) for DVDs...now I mean which card will capture Beta SP with the best quality to be used for DVDs.
3. and which harddrives do you prefer.
thnx in advanced
mark

For working with BetaSP, price & performance-wise, the Aja IO La box is great. It connects via firewire, but allows capture in DV, DV50, 8- and 10-bit Uncompressed.
It has RS-422 control for your deck, and 4 channels of analog audio in & out.

5.1 or 7.1 soumd cards for Mac G5 10.4.11?

Hi
this seems like the best place to ask this question
can anyone recommend a 5 or 7.1 surround sound card for Mac, its just for playback
of films, not mixing, one that works without any grief and wont conflict with my Digi 002. er you know just regular domestic pci card thats half decent.
So no truck size rack mounted dolby decoders please.
Regards
James

the best value/quality is Motu Ultralite mk3
Firewire!!!
BUT, the PCI Motu options should be also great...
I'm talking about professional Audio Quality
there is also the V4HD
http://www.v4hd.com/
(great for Final Cut Studio users)
Motu devices comes with all professional connectors options at best possible price (value for quality).
Just my personal opinion

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.
