Capturing menu video

I am making a demo DVD and would like to show video of the iDVD menu animation within my project which I'm making with FCP. Is this possible to do?

2. isn't always necessary.  I've never had an issue capturing with the native Win 7 driver.
5. also isn't necessary.  Capture works just fine with hardware acceleration on.  (What you can't do here is output video with it on, but capture works fine.)
3 and 4 might not always be the correct order.  I had a system that would only work right if I started Premiere Pro first, then connected the device, waited for Windows to see it, and then opened the capture pane.  Any other sequence and capture just wouldn't work.
6. has nothing at all to do with capture.
I understand the goal here, but I really feel your guide is filled with some misinformation.

    I tried to use the USB camera, it's OK. But, will the TV card or video capture card also work?

    Hi,
    iChat will set up a Video chat window that takes in to account your Processor speed and Internet Speed and to some extent the Buddy's speed.
    This then denotes the pixel content of each frame.
    OS X 10.6.x tells me this is iChat 5 which in turn mean you have  at least an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor.
    This should be capable of 30 frames a sec at  about 640 X 480 pixels  (Check the Connection Doctor (Video Menu) and the Statistics tab during a Chat).
    iChat 5 cannot do HD  (Max of 4:3 ratio at the above figures)
    After that it depends how you are recording the chat.
    Quicktime X would do it.
    iChat will do it itself (if the Buddy agrees)

  • How to capture DV video with Date in Premiere CS5?

    Hi,
    I'm running Premiere CS5 on a Mac (Lion osx 10.7), and for the first time want to transfer a bunch of DV tapes I have recorded over the years.  The camera I am using for the transfer is a Panasonic PV-GS250.  I would like to be able to transfer over the original date/timecode information in each individual clip so I know when the scene was shot.
    Is this possible?  I've tried reading through the docs and searched the web, but can't seem to figure out if/how to do this.  And/or how to even view that metadata information from within Premiere.
    If Premiere is unable to accomplish this, is there a better software that will allow me to capture the video like this?
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Since CS4 (I think...or CS5...) there is the option to display the shot date.
         On the bin window click it's context menu button (the upper right one) and choose Metadata display... then choose under Dynamic Media->Shot Date.
         If this doesn work with your files, then try the Basic->Date Created choice under metadata too.
    This will display on your bin the date of the shooting. It works perfectly with dv tapes captured via firewire. Please note that if the tapes being captured are dubbed tapes, they should be dubbed via firewire too, to maintain metadata. Any other way the metadata will be lost.

  • How do I capture streaming video on firefox for mac?

    Is there a way to save or capture streaming video being watched on Firefox for Mac?

    it's possible. i did it myself, after a few tryouts.
    i still can't get the best result, but i got something.
    first of all you have to save the streaming file(thru the save as qt movie, from CTRL-click). when you get a stream it gets cached on your computer. you might playback it even when offline. so if all that you need is a simple playback, that's ok. but it's a cache, sometime the system will erase it from your HD.
    if you want to keep it as a qt file(or any other format) thats this is the deal. when you save the stream file, it saves a reference file(4kb) that reads the cache. you cannot recover them from the cache, not even by changing the termination, because the qt player won't recognize the .qtch files transformed into .mov.
    open the file(reference you saved before), choose export from the file menu, and choose the setting that you want. i still don't get a good quality(i know it's incredible that a stream file has a better quality...) and i still have to export the video separated from the audio. but if you need only the moving image to edit a homevideo, and your only source is a stream, it's a start.
    so if anyone feel like growing the knowledge tree, let's go ahead.

  • Unable to capture analog video.

    Hi,
    I am running Premier Pro CS3 on a Windows XP machine. This is a new machine to me provided by my work. I am trying to capture analog video from a VHS deck that has both S-video and composite outs. The IT folks installed an ATI TV Wonder HD 650 PCI Digital & Analog TV Tuner to use as a capture card. In the device manager it shows up as an ATI Radeon HD2400 card. I don't have anyway of discerning the difference, and this may or may not be the main issue. When I open Premier and try to capture, it does not recognize the card as a capture device. Any clues about how to make this work would be great.
    Thanks,
    sarah

    Premiere Pro does not natively capture from TV or graphics cards.
    You will find links to many

  • Unable to properly capture HD video from miniDV tape in FCE

    unable to capture HD video from miniDV tape
    When I connect my Sony HDR-HC3 miniDV HDV camcorder to my iMac via firewire cable and use Final Cut Express to capture the video from the tape, I do not get a Capture window that allows me to specify in and out points, I just get a playback window that immediately starts capturing and the only option I have in this window is hit ESC to stop capturing. If I let this capture window continue to capture the video from the camera with miniDV HD tape, then the entire tape would be captured as one massive single video clip.
    QUESTION: Is there something I change or do to make the proper capture window appear where I can specify in and out points to capture from tape for each clip?
    NOTE: using same camera and tape with iMovie with automatic capture enabled, all the clips get captured properly. I also tried to use the manual setting in iMovie and it worked too.
    More details(read only if you want more information)
    I have a several miniDV tapes containing HD video created on a Sony Sony HDR-HC5 and Sony HDR-HC7. Unfortunately, both these camera were stolen, and I have since moved to a camera that uses flash memory, not tape. However, I need to get the video footage off these tapes, so I bought a used Sony HDR-HC3, it plays the HD miniDV tapes just fine and iMovie reads the video from this camera just fine, but Final Cut Express does not.
    When I setup Final Cut Express, I used the Easy Setup and specified:
    Format: HD
    Rate: 29.97 fps
    Use: HDV-Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60
    These setting match those of the camera and recorded tape. If I use any other settings but these, then Final Cut Express never sees the camera and never opens any capture window at all. Using Quicktime 10 movie inspector on the clips captured by iMovie from same camera, all the clips match this setting too.
    Final Cut Express version 4.0.1
    iMovie 09 Version 8.0.2 (821)
    iMac 2.93 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3 running
    Mac OS X Version 10.6.4
    My Final Cut Express scratch disk is a Seagate 2TB external USB 2.0 Hard Drive that has been formatted to be Mac OS Extended (Journaled). This external disk is also where iMovie successfully captured all the video from the same camera.

    Thanks for the answer. It makes me sad. I thought using Final Cut Express would be an upgrade to a more robust editing system from iMovie, yet iMovie does a superior job of logging and capturing video from HDV video on miniDV tape in comparison to FCE. Not only does iMovie capture each clip on the tape into it's own video file automatically, it also includes timestamp information in the filename indicating when the clip was originally recorded, which appears to be something that is missing from Final Cut Express. Now I realize that HDV miniDV cameras had a relatively short life span in the consumer marketplace and have since all been replaced by flash and hard drive based AVCHD cameras, but from circa 2004 to 2007, miniDV HDV camcorders were very popular and I am sure there are lots of consumers that must be super frustrated by Final Cut Express limited ability to log and capture clips properly from these cameras.
    Assuming I do not want to make a rough cut of video in iMovie and prefer to begin my editing project in Final Cut Express (not doing XML export of iMovie project), I need to determine the best way to get clips captured via iMovie into Final Cut Express and determine if there is anything inferior in the iMovie captured clips that I need to be aware of. So far it appears that both iMovie and Final Cut Express reduce the 5.1 surround sound captured on the HDV miniDV tapes to stereo sound, which is not a big lose given the 5.1 sound was recorded from camera's built-in microphone, but it makes me wonder if the video is reduced in any way by the iMovie import process, examining the video in quicktime's inspector window the video appears to be the same in both iMovie and FCE, but I'll research the answers to these questions elsewhere on this forum and post additional questions if I do not find the information I need.

  • Capture HD video in Final Cut Express with a Sony HDR-FX7

    When try to capture a video from my new Sony HDR-FX7 using the HD Format Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60 the preview screen never shows the video being captured. In fact the video is never captured. Any suggestions to how set the 'Easy Setup'? When I try to capture with NTSC format the software keeps looking for a timecode that it will never find thus stops within a minute of starting. I would love to capture some video from my new Sony HDR-FX7 but not having much luck tonight. Have any helpful hints?

    First, trash your preferences. Setting different incorrect settings and opening the capture window is a good way to corrupt the prefs files. HDV AIV 1080i60 is the only one to use if the camera is correctly set to output HDV.
    Please give your full system specifications, what computer, what drives, how everything's connected, what settings are on the media (you really did shoot HDV?), and finally what version of the software, of the OS, and of QuickTime are you using?

  • DVHSCap to Capture HDV VIdeo

    FCP does not support the JVC GR-HD1U but I have found that people have been successful capturing the video through Apple's DVHSCap then converting the data to .m2t transport files using MPEG Streamclip (I will post what I read below). I have downloaded DVHSCap but cannot figure out how to capture the vide from my camcorder. If anyone is familiar with DVHSCap I would very much appreciate some advice. Thank you all very much for your time!

    I can get camera control -FFW -ply- rewind- but no video in the digitiz window?

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Apple and FCP 4.5 do not yet officially support JVC's HDV camcorders.
    However, I have had very good results, over the past year, using Apple Development software to capture HDV files from my GR-HD1U. Then using free-ware software to convert the resulting .m2t transport files to QuickTime .mov files. I then drop the QT.mov files into an FCP bin and edit as usual using FCP.
    I use Apple's DVHSCap application to capture HDV camcorder data tapes via firewire and convert the data to .m2t transport files. DVHSCap (for Panther) can be obtained by going to:
    www.apple.com/firewire/
    click on 'FireWire SDK 19 for Mac OS X (Download)
    double click XFireWireSDK19e.pkg (to install the SDK)
    DVHSCap (and similar VirtualDVHS) can be found in
    /Developer/FireWireSDK19/Applications/
    I also use a freeware program 'MPEG Streamclip 1.0.1', which is available from:
    http://www.alfanet.it/squared5/mpegstreamclip.html
    I use MPEG Streamclip to:
    1) Locate clips of interest and set their 'in' and 'out' points,
    2) Set the, optional, number of 'bad lines' to crop from the sides and top of each frame,
    3) Re-scale, if desired, to 720p or 1080p,
    4) Export to QuickTime...
    5) Drop the resulting QT.mov file, which contains synced 'video and audio' data, into an FCP bin.

    I don't have experience with your JVC format or deck but here is something you may want to read.

  • Capture analog video

    Hi, when i have a g5 with finalcut 5 i can capture analog video (betacam conected to a dvcam recorder then with a "non controlable device" and then "capture now") now, with the mac pro and fcp 6 i can't.
    there are no signal to capture, what can i do?

    The deck is in e/e if you can see the analog signal in the log and capture window. If you can't see it, it's probably not in e/e... keep looking, all pro decks have this function. The other thing you should be able to do is dub the source tape to the digital recorder. Make sure too the input selection on the machine is set up properly.

  • Best way to Capture Analog Video (via DV)

    I have no issues with capturing DV video froma DV Camcorder in PRE. The process is very smooth and I really am comfortable with it. However, when I am capturing my old wedding and other personal VHS tapes (via an ADTech Pyro AV) I really hate the capture capablities within PRE ( I am use PRE 7).
    I was wondering if there is any advantage to using PRE for the DV Capture for my Analog material verses using either Windows Import Video, or using some other capture program like Pinnacle Studio (which allows me to specifiy the length of the capture verses having it just run on until I stop it.) Most of my VHS tapes are 2 hours in length and I would like to be able to say capture 125 minutes then stop (so I could just run the captures at night or while I am otherwise not using the computer.) With PRE7 it will just continue capturing forever until I stop it, which creates some enormous files that then need to be trimmed.
    (Does anyone know a way to tell PRE to just capture for x amount of time on a analog to DV Capture?)
    Is a DV Capture the same regardless of program? Is there any advantage to actually running the capture through PRE7 verses external where I can provide better control over the length and time of the capture.

    If your ADS Pyro AV Link is set up right and capturing over FireWire, you should get the same quality no matter what program you use to capture -- and that quality should be as good as the original. Premiere Elements does nothing to change the video data of DV as it captures; it just saves it as it comes in.
    But I would not recommend using any program or device that captures as anything other than DV-AVIs. Otherwise you're dealing with conversion issues and possibly incompatible video files, etc.
    Does that answer your question?

  • Getting the following message on Final Cut Express "audio only capture selected video preview disabled" how can I get the video capture back?

    I'm getting the following message on screen when attempting to capture video  "audio only capture selected, video preview disabled."  How can I get the view preview back?

    FCE doesn't allow for audio only capture, it's in a twist somewhere.
    Try trashing the FCE preferences.

  • Captured NTSC video looks small in Canvas window

    Often, when we capture video into FCP (version 4.5), the clip comes in at 50% of it's original size (that's how it looks in the canvas window and on the NTSC monitor). We have looked at a number of sequence settings and have not been able to rectify the problem.
    We are capable of scaling each or the clips up to 160% of the original size and the clips will then fill the frame as expected. There does not seem to be any degradation in the video when doing this, but obviously we are doing something wrong and our solution is a long way from elegant.
    In certain projects or sequences the video will be captured into FCP and be the normal size, but we have not been able to figure out what is the difference between these projects and sequences.
    Thanks very much for your input.

    Use the DV/NTSC easy preset to capture your DV material. If the material is recorded as anamorphic, use that preset.
    Capture the video using the same DV/NTSC easy preset that you used to create the project.
    Drop the clip into a sequence created using the same DV/NTSC easy preset..
    The clip will fill the NTSC external monitor screen.
    Set your Canvas and Viewer windows to Fill to fit.
