Capturing using DV device

So I have a digital converter attached to my MAC with firewire that I run my camera through to capture video. Before I was capturing to imovie, then transfering to FCE. As noted by Tom, that was a poor way to get video into FCE.
So I read the section on capturing video from his book. I went to easy setup and changed the preference to DV conveter with fire wire (as noted in his book this would allow you to capture without having time code). When I do this the capture device says "no connection" or something to that effect. But if I switch it in easy set up to "Fire Wire", it allows me to capture, but it is looking for time code, which breaks up the footage every now and then. Am I missing the all important step?

OK. Here is where I got confused. I was using the *DV-NSTC DV Converter* option instead of DV-NTSC. I have changed the "capture now limited" to 60 minutes (about the time of the footage). If I understand things correctly, the DV-NTSC is used for items without time code. But the tape (an old VHS tape) keeps coming up with "Locating Timebreak Push esc to stop". Is that because the tape is so old that there are blank spots? When we watch it in the VCR there are no blank spots or areas that cut out. Should I be trying to capture at DV-NTSC 32kHz? I tried over 10 times last night to capture the footage, but it kept giving me the "loacting timebreak" error.

Is there any way programmatically to disable the screen shot capture using Home power button in the iPad device?

Hi Team,
Is there any way programmatically to disable the screen shot capture using Home + power button in the iPad device.We need to avoid the screen capture option due to security reason.
thanks ,
Bala

Hi Peace, Clyde,
Thanks for information. Using the API UIApplicationUserDidTakeScreenhotNotification (iOS7) send the notification after the screenshot taken. Using this api is it possible to block the screen shot caputure option.
Thanks and Regards,

I am unable to capture using Matrox MXO2 LE with Preimere Pro CS6 and Windows 8

I have a Matrox MXO2 LE and trying to capture with Preimere Pro CS6. My OS is Windows 8 and it sees my Matrox Device via my device managers. No option comes up in CS6 to allow me to actually capture. I am a new beginner with both Matorx and Preimere so learning on the way.
Background Information:
I have a Datavideo SE 600 Switcher (SD) and it is connected to the Matrox. I am trying to capture into Preimere Pro so that we can make DVDs instanly after service, we are a church. I am able to capture using Adobe Live Media Encoder for Live streaming but not Preimere Pro CS6.

Check with Matrox... ask 2 things
1-do you have a device driver that is "certified" for PProCS6?
2-do you have a device driver that is "certified" for Windows 8?
The only NATIVE support in Premiere (any version) is Firewire

Using a devices camera and adding the image to the display list

Hi,
My students and I have not been able to make an AIR app that can take a picture using the devices camera and then add the image to the display list. We are able to open the devices camera and of course take a picture, but that's it.
We've been using these two tutorials/examples:

and

Hi,
Do I have to add the picture to the cameraroll in order to add it to the AIR apps display list?
Both examples from Adobe claim that their examples work. Do they not?
In the example, the event handler asyncImageLoaded is never called. The output text field shows -   result_txt.text = "Asynchronous media promise."; So the Event.COMPLETE is being added. But I don't think it's being dispatched.
Any ideas?

Image Capture shows no devices (again)

Hi,
I have a MacBook Air (2012) running Mac OS X 10.9.1, 1.8GHz Intel Core i5, with 4GB ram.
I have a Cannon MP510, it shows up on the list of printers in the System Preferences.
I had a similar problem with the previous operating system (see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5419672)
I now have a Time Capsule and I have tried connecting the printer to my laptop with USB and also via the Airport Time Capsule (both by USB).
The MP510 show up in Printers & Scanners but no Scan, and Image Capture shows no devices as being found.
I have looked at:
http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/pixma_mp_s eries/pixma_mp510#DriversAndSoftware
But they have no drivers for 10.9.1 but I did try the driver for 10.8 again.
I have made sure that the printer is in Scan mode, I have tried Scan to PC, and Scan to PDF. (There isnt a Scan to Mac)
Any ideas on how I can get my MacBook to detect that the MP510 is also a scanner so that I can use image capture (or any other free software) to get scanned images on to my Mac?
Thanks,
Mulder

I have downloaded Cannon's MP Navigator and it says that it cannot communicate with the scanner, Scanner driver will be closed, and number 155.0.0

How to capture using Pinnacle 700-USB Analog to Digital (USB)?

I have a Pinnacle 700-USB Analog to Digital converter which inputs Composite and L+R Audio and outputs a Digital signal through USB.
I'm using this to digitize VHS tapes.
I am trying out different Video Editing sw including Adobe Elements 7. Others like Pinnacle Studio 12 and Corel Video Studio 12 can import from this USB-device. It doesn't seem to be possible using Adobe Elements 7.
I've looked at the page http://help.adobe.com/en_US/PremiereElements/7.0/WS51F6C811-8B79-4c26-B4B9-24C0919182B6.ht ml
It mentions at the end "Note: If you capture using an AV DV converter, you might need to capture without using device control."
1) What does the last Note mean? Which device control?
2) Are there any possibility of this working? What should I try to play with?

My Pinnacle Dv500 came bundled with Premiere 6.0 which I updated to 6.02... and I also updated the Dv500 driver software from the V3 to V4.5a so it would save in "standard" DV AVI Type 2 48khz files, instead of the ones that required the Dv500 codec to edit
When I bought a new computer and started using WinXp instead of the Win2000 that came with my Alienware Pentium3, I could never get Premiere 6 to work... would start, flash a screen or two, and then just go away
I then bought Scenalyzer, since it was compatible with the Dv500 (still had to have P6 and Dv500 drivers installed) but it turned out to be very FRAGILE as any slightest glitch on the tape would stop the program... and since some of what I'm doing is capturing my OLD library of VHS tapes, that simply wouldn't do
My current solution is a dual boot drive with Win2k/WinXp
Premiere 6 captures EVERYTHING in the Win2k partition... files saved to 2nd drive... and then I use PProCS3/Encore3 for editing and DVD creation
Just a "bit" of a hassle to have to restart between capture & edit/dvd... but much better than Scenalyzer stopping every time an old movie hit a rough spot in the tape... rough spots that capture just fine with P6

Trouble capturing using XL 2

I am trying to capture using a Canon XL 2. I've tried using two different 4 pin to 9 pin firewire cables. I've even tried two different XL 2s. Not only do Final Cut and iMovie not recognize it, but under the "about mac" firewire section, it doesn't show anything being connected. I've tried it with the camera stopped, playing and even off (just to try it) and still nothing. I think the settings are right, but do anyone have any suggestions?

1) Make sure that the camera is the only device on the FW bus. If you were planning to capture to an external, you may need to capture to your internal drive first, then move the footage to an external for editing. Canon cameras are know to be finicky on the FW bus.
2) Are you using a 9pin to 4pin cable or a 6pin to 4pin with an adaptor? There has been some anecdotal reports that using adaptors, as opposed to fixed cables can cause problems.
3) When ever you FW troubles, disconnect everything. Turn everything completely off for 5 - 10 minutes. Reconnect and turn on the camera. Now turn on the computer. Not only can the computer FW get jammed up, the device itself can get jammed up as well.
4) Trash your FCE preferences, espcially if you have been making lots of Easy Set Up or Capture Settings changes with the device attached.
You can download Preference Manager (free) from Digital Rebellion to do this for you:

Pulling packet capture from IPS device

I work for a MSP (Managed Services Provider), we currently are evaluating CSM for mgt of 50 IPS/IDSM devices. To make analysis more effective, want to be able to pull the packet capture from the device. We have our own correlation engine, so we do not need MARS. We want to grab the packet and then put a copy into our ticketing system so the analyst has the data right in front of them.
Is the IP Log directory where the packet capture data is kept? Has anyone ever tried this before? What are the performance/health concerns with enabling packet captures for just high signatures? Does the IP log directory really "clean" itself out after a certain period of time?

There are 4 event actions that can be used to capture packets.
The produce-verbose-alert event action will encode the trigger packet as part of the alert itself. So with this event action the packet is already included in the alerts you are already pulling off the sensor. You just need to modify your tool to strip off this packet, decode it, and then add it to your ticketing system at the same time as you add the alert.
This is where I would start.
Using the produceVerboseAlert uses very little additional sensor resources. It has only a very small affect on sensor performance. Because each alert will be larger than normal it will reduce the total number of alerts that can be stored in the sensor's eventstore. But if your application is actively subscribing for these events, then the reduction in total number of alerts stored on the sensor should not cause you any issues. So adding this for all High alerts woulc be a good practice.
The other 3 event actions are log-attacker-packets, log-pair-packets, and log-victim-packets. These event actions will trigger an IP Log (packet log) to be created (or increase the time for capture on an existing IP Log.
The IP Log system is a collection of numbered files on the sensor. As event actions trigger new IP Logs to be created the sensor will pick one of those numbered files and begin writing packets to that file. The sensor retains an internal mapping of what packets are being written to each file. If no empty files exist, then the sensor will automatically overwrite the oldest IP Log file with the new IP Log file. Larger platforms have up to 512 of these numbered files, and smaller platforms may have as few as 128 or even 64 of these numbered files. Each file is 1 Megabyte in size and usually stored in RAM memory. With the limited number of files, the storage of these logs on the sensor is very short term. And so should be pulled off the sensor as soon as possible (just like what you are planning to implement). The sensor also has a usual limit of only writing 20 IP Log files at any one time.
With these limitations on the IP Log files they shoudl be used sparingly. Configuring too many signatures or signatures that trigger often with these event actions can lead to problems. The IP Logs could easily be overwritten by newer IP Logs being triggered, and/or more than 20 could be requested at any one time which means some alerts won't be able to have an IP Log created.
So IP Logging event actions should be limited to only those alerts where the additional data is manditory.
Also understand that IP Logging can have a negative impact on sensor performance. If you plan on using IP Logging often, then consider using a sensor rated for higher speeds than what you will be monitoring.

Capture Using USB Camera

I have a client's Canon DC 10 Mini DVD camcorder and the disc won't finalize, so we need to load it into FCP directly. On my 1st try, FCP doesn't recognize the device, but the Mac Pro sees it as an Untitled CD. Any suggestions? Thanks.

you can't capture using USB, you'll need a firewire connection in order to do that. If the cam doesn't have a connection, I'd get a hold of a mini dv camera or anything else really that has a firewire connection and do a dub from your DC 10 to the mini dv camera. then you'll have a straight dub of your footage on tape with a firewire port. there you'll be able to do a proper capture onto your computer HDD.

Hi. I am just about to move from the UK to Kuwait. Will I have any problems using my iPhone 4 and able to join a local carrier using this device please?

If your phone is locked to a particular carrier, you must contact them to request they unlock it. Once they've taken care of that and you've followed the instructions to complete the unlock process, you will be able to use the phone elsewhere.

My apple tv mirroring is slow. So slow it shuts off. Any thoughts on cause? I use this device in my office for presentations without a problem. In my home with a stronger wifi router, I'm having issues.

My apple tv mirroring is slow. So slow it shuts off. Any thoughts on cause? I use this device in my office for presentations without a problem. In my home with a stronger wifi router, I'm having issues.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

How do you use 3 devices on one Router?

    Hello< I'm new to the forum and new to networking. My question may seem very basic and it may not, I'm not sure. I will say that I have tried to learn things about routers and networking over the past few days with not much success.  Of the 3 million plus acronyms used for networking and networking devices, I know maybe two of them, so trying to read about this stuff is like trying to read pig latin.
    My set-up is one Lynksys cable modem and a WRT54G wireless router using Comcast cable internet. I have one PC wired to the router, one Xbox360 wired to the router, and one PSP (Playstation Portable) wirelessly connected to the router using a WPA personal. I currently have my router set to "Automatic Configuration - DHCP."
    The PC is always connected to the internet and always works, although, once and a while I do get the little yellow shield in my toolbar that says there is an IP conflict. After setting up or resetting the router I can then log on with both my PC and the Xbox at the same time with no trouble. While both the Xbox and PC are looged in,the PSP will not log in,says "could not connect." As soon as I log off the Xbox, the PSP will then be able to connect without doing anything else. If I then log off the PSP I have to reset the router before the Xbox can log in again. If I do not reset the router at this point, and run the Xbox network test utility it will say the IP address has failed.
   Is there a way that I can log in with all 3 devices at once? If not, is there a way that I can at least not have to reset the router everytime I switch from the PSP to the Xbox?
Thanks to anyone who replies to this post. I am getting a little frustrated and I can't seem to gain any understanding of these devices or how they work.

Thanks a lot for that information Sean. Those guides made it extremely easy to set up all my devices to a static IP. I now have all 3 devices logged at the same time and no longer need to reset my router. Nice!
There is one problem though. Now, when I use the test utility on the Xbox, everything is confirmed, but when it gets to NAT it says "moderate." It used to say "open."
IP Adress - Confirmed
DNS         - Confirmed
MTU         - Confirmed
ICMP        - Confirmed
Xbox Live - Connected
NAT          - Moderate (should say "open")
This is what it says when I select "more info" under NAT;
"This test indicates the type of NAT that your router or gateway is using. Devices that perform strict or moderate NAT can restrict or limit the ability of gamers to find each other, participate in sessions, or hear each other on Xbox Live. If your router or gateway is using a strict or moderate NAT, replace it with a Xbox Live compatible device. For a listing of compatible devises visit www.xbox.com."
I have since tried joining a live game session and everything seemed to work fine, although I havn't yet had a chance to confirm if the Live voice chat is working yet.
I have checked the Xbox website and found that my modem is certified Xbox Live compatible. It lists WRT54G (V1, V2, and V3) supporting firmware version 3.01.3 and 3.03.6. It also states that firmaware v2.02.7 will not allow you to log onto Xbox Live, so I know I don't want that version. In my router's set-up menu it says Firmware v1.00.9. Should I update my firmware? Am I missing something else?
Again, thanks for your help and hopefully I can figure out this "moderate" thing.
Hi
Well first of all , No worries budd.
and secondly ,
am happy about the fact u did the settings correctly ,thats why u able to get online with All three devices . appreciate it .
Thirdly ,
firmware could be an issue . as u stated u firmware version on router showin as v1.00.9 . i found out it is WRT54G v5.
upgrade the router to the latest firmware version - v1.02.5 !
How to upgrade the router in correct mannar , click this magic link .
Fourth , if stll problem persist !
enable the port forwards in the correct mannar for the static ip u provided to xbox, follow this magic link 2 for more info.
hope for gudd..
