Connecting My Mic To My Camera

Sorry this isn't really about Logic but i was wondering if anyone knew how i could use my Mic as my camera's mic
I usually record into Logic with my mic and mixer, I tried plugging in the wire from my mixer that i usually plug into my line in port into the a/v port on the camera. But that didnt work.
It's a simple home Cannon camcorder and the only ports are a tiny digital usb like port, and the a/v port (same size as a headphone jack)
Thanks

Hi,
It looks like your camera does not have a "line" input, nor a "mic" input. what does the camera's manual say?

PC shuts off when Ipod Touch is connected. Detects "Digital Still Camera"

My Ipod Touch was working fine until today. I plugged it into my PC and then it detects it as a "digital still camera". Then after a few seconds my PC will completely shut down.
The weird thing is that once it restarts with the Ipod connected already it will detect it as an Ipod and Itunes will open and everything normally. If I then disconnect it and connect it again, it will be detected as a camera again and again shut down.
I've looked all over the inter for solutions. Most of them involve updating the driver. But I cannot update the driver unless the device is connected. And when the device is connected as a "digital still camera" it will shut down my computer.
I tried booting in safe mode and then connecting the Ipod Touch and it worked fine. It detected it as an Ipod and everything worked fine. My plan was to boot in safe mode and then update the driver but I couldn't because it detected it normally.
I would normally try turning off some services to see if something it bothering it but I don't want to ruin my computer by consistently shutting it down unexpectingly and giving me errors each time it reboots.
I've seen other people online with this problem but none with a solution. I would really appreciate some help. Thank you

Mine is doing the same thing,I got it 2 days ago worked fine but today everytime i plug in the desk top it will shut it down. I plug it to my lap top it worked but i'm affraid that it will do the same thing again after a while. I have a feeling that there is some problem with itunes, if my computer is the problem why did it work fine at the begining.When I uninstalled the itunes and plug the ipod it starts charging but the computer did not shut down. I did some research and it seems that a lot of people having the same problem.

How can I connect to a remote firewire camera?

We have a system that has the following peripherals connected to it:
1 - firewire camera
2 - serial port devices
2 - emulated serial port devices (on VCP USB drivers)
1 - Ethernet device
We have developed an application using CVI 8.1, NI Vision 8.6, and NI-IMAQdx 3.2 (it's an older cam). I would like to make this system accessible remotely (not remote desktop) and was looking for a way to program a server/client setup. Although it will be a lot of work, we can easily take care of a protocol for the Ethernet and serial devices. Where I'm getting stuck is the camera.
I've searched the forums and it seems that people can use the RT software module on specific host hardware to do just that. We don't want to invest in purchasing a separate software module or another piece of hardware, so I was wondering if it was possible to configure MAX or the NI vision server somehow to connect to a remote win7 PC to grab frames and configure the camera OR is there an easy way that I can transfer the stream over TCP/IP?
The only solution I can come up with is the grab a frame, save to .PNG, transmit it, and then load it on the client side. This seems very wasteful (and slow considering the harddrive will constantly buffer the data) and I would need to do a lot of encapsulation for changing camera settings, etc. Further, I'm not sure how well this would work for when we try to calibrate the camera with the IMAQ drivers. Is there a way to get the size and all relevant data structures in memory of the vision server so I can transfer them?
Finally, if there is a simple way of configuring and doing all of this for the camera that I'm missing (through MAX), then is there a similarly easy way of mapping the remote serial ports and of bridging the Ethernet data? I know there are a few pieces of existing software for the serial ports, but was looking to make a single software solution.
Thanks for taking the time!

Hi Stan,
Welcome to the NI Discussion forums! Thanks for posting your application here. There certainly are more efficient ways of streaming IMAQ images over a network. One such method would be to convert the IMAQ image type to a 2D array and then pass the data through TCP/IP, as you eluded to. Do you have access to LabVIEW? If so, you can look at this community example and base your CVI code on it. Although it is meant for a Real-time CVS acting as the remote system, you should be able to run the code on a regular PC. If you don't have access to the LabVIEW development system, the overall code structure for the server system is as follows:
- Open IMAQdx reference, initiate a TCP connection, Create IMAQ image buffer
- Initialize an IMAQdx grab
- Loop:
- Call IMAQdx grab
- Use the IMAQ Flatten Image to String to convert the IMAQ image to a string
- Call TCP Write to send the string length first, then again to send the actual string data
- Dispose of the IMAQ image buffer, close the IMAQdx reference, close the TCP connection
On the client end, you just need to open the TCP connection and call TCP read to read the string size and then the string data. Then, you can use the unflatten from string function to convert the string back to an IMAQ image data type. After this, it is up to you how you want to process the data (display it on the screen, write to an AVI file, etc).
If you are not sure how to implement TCP/IP programs in CVI, please take a look at this tutorial. If you have more in-depth questions about implementing the TCP/IP side of the program in CVI, you may wish to post that specific question on the CVI board.
With regards to mapping the serial ports remotely, if you are already using NI-VISA for COM port communication, take a look at this document on Remote Instrument Control with NI-VISA. Essentially, you should be able to access the VISA resource (e.g. a COM port) remotely by enabling the remote NI-VISA server on the client machine. For more specific help with this aspect of your code, please post to the GPIB/VISA board.
Feel free to post again here if you have more IMAQ and vision-related questions. Hope this helps!

Cannot connect my mic+headphones to the sound card.any he

I can connect the mic wire to the sound card(creative sound blaster audigy 5.)?but i dont have another exit for my headphones wire, so i can talk but i cant hear anything in the headphones - the sound is coming only from the speakers.is there anyway do make the sound go bothways, to the headphones and to the speakers?i tried to connect the headphones to the motherboard soundcard but it didnt have much use....And are there any extension cables so i can extend my headphone wire and connect it to the speaker headphone exit's?Thanks for your attention people.Looking forward to your replies.

xeckuc,
Maybe you can try to get a stereo splitter adaptor to share the audio output with your speaker.

Wifi connection AirPort Extreme with IP-camera

I can't establish wifi connection Airport Extreme with IP-camera. At the same time cable connection is fine, but wifi not.
Please, give me an advise.

You need to create a wireless network on the AirPort Extreme, and then you probably will want to assign a compatible static LAN IP address to the camera so that you can port-forward from the router to the camera.

Hear your microphone or instrument as you play and record (monitoring)
You can hear, or monitor, input from an instrument or microphone in GarageBand while you play and record. When you turn on monitoring for a track, you hear the musical instrument or microphone connected to the track’s input. Monitoring lets you hear yourself play so that you can hear the part you want to record as well as the rest of the project.
You can turn on monitoring for a Real Instrument track or Electric Guitartrack from the track’s header, or in the Track Info pane. Electric Guitar tracks always show their monitoring buttons, and you can show monitoring buttons for Real Instrument tracks using a menu command. You can use monitoring with feedback protection to avoid feedback while you play.
Hide
To turn on monitoring in the track header:
Choose Track > “Show Monitoring for Real Instrument Tracks.”Monitor buttons appear in the headers of Real Instrument tracks. On tracks with monitoring turned on, the button lights yellow.
Click the Monitor button in the header of the track you want to use.
HideTo turn on monitoring in the Track Info pane:
Double-click the header of the Real Instrument or Electric Guitar track you want to turn on monitoring for.The Track Info pane opens.
From the Monitor pop-up menu, choose one of the following:
Choose Off to turn off monitoring. You can hear your instrument only while you record.
Choose On to turn on monitoring and protect against feedback.
Choose On (no feedback protection) to turn on monitoring without feedback protection. If the input level is too high, it may cause feedback (especially if you are using a microphone and listening to your project through your computer speakers).
For an Electric Guitar track, you can view the Monitor pop-up menu by clicking Edit, and then clicking the back side of the amp. The Monitor pop-up menu appears with the input controls below the stage.
You should usually turn off monitoring when you are not playing or singing. When monitoring is turned on, your computer can pick up output from your speakers or monitors, causing unwanted feedback. Using headphones rather than speakers to listen to your projects can help eliminate feedback.
If you select your computer’s built-in microphone as the audio input, in the Audio/MIDI pane of GarageBand preferences, monitoring is turned off for all Electric Guitar tracks to avoid unwanted noise.

How to connect fp mic on msi G31M3-L V2 ?

Hi ,Does anybody knows how to connect front panel mic jack or audio jack, the manual for MSI G31M3-L V2 doesnt says anything about JFP2. I have already connected the three jacks with 5.1 home theater speaker system, and so i do not have free mic jack for my web cam, or one channel for 5.1 speaker system
Free wires are mic_bias, mic_in, Gnd, Spk .. return L, return R, Thanks!

Hi,
the JFP1 and JFP2 connectors cannot be used for connecting the case's front panel audio ports. You have to use the JAUD1 Connector.
The Pinouts of the JAUD1 Connector are described in the user manual. If you want a more detailed pin definition, check the Intel Front Panel I/O Connectivity Design Guide, page 22 (Intel® High Definition Audio):
http://www.formfactors.org/developer%5Cspecs%5CA2928604.pdf

Free wires are mic_bias, mic_in, Gnd, Spk .. return L, return R
Looks like your case's wiring is not fully compatible with the Intel HD Audio/Azalia Connectivity Standard, so don't be surprised that the JAUD1 Connector has more pins than you have wires. Connecting the microphone should be pretty easy anyway. There are basically just two possible positions. The GND-Wire goes to the GND-Pin (2). The two MIC-Wires go to the two MIC-Pins (1 and 3). Try both positions, one of them should work. When you test the microphone and it does not work, make sure you try the following things:
1) Disable the Front Panel Audio Jack Detection in the Realtek HD Audio Manager
2) Run the microphone calibration utility (called miccal.exe (it is in the Realtek Installation folder))
3) Enable Microphone Boost

Connect problem with DV video-camera through the new thunderbolt to firewire adapter?

Hi
I got a JVC DV camcorder with firewire 400 output and I've got a Macbook Air 2012 with 8gb 1600 MHz DDR3, intel i7 2GHz, 256 ssd harddisk and intel HD graphics 4000 512 mb. It has thundebolt but no firewire port.
I wanted to connect these two item and then bought the new "thunderbolt to firewire 800" and the "800 to 400 firewire adapter cable".
I then connect both cables to each other and pluged it in to the JVC DV. I started up iMovie and pressed play on the camcorder, but the signal can't get through and the Macbook Air does not find the camcorder at all? What have I done wrong? Please help..
Best regards,

How do I connect my Sony HD video camera to work as my webcam on a mac-mini

I have just purchased a 2.5GHz 4Mb mini-mac. I am using a Samsung HD TV and want to use a Sony HD video camera as a webcam. I have mini-display port, HDMI port and thunderbolt port on the mini-mac. The video camera has mini HDMI port and I have mini HDMI to HDMI cable. I also have HDMI to mini-disply connector. So far I have tried connecting the TV via the HDMI to HDMI cable and the camera via mini HDMI to HDMI/HDMI mini-display convertor to the mini-mac. The TV is showing the display but the video camera (turned on!) doesn't automatically appear or show in either Finder or as available when I am trying to set up Skype. Then tried swapping the two around at the mini-mac with the TV now going through the HDMI to mini-display convertor and the camera going to the HDMI port. Same results as previous set-up.
Can this be made to work? Is there a HDMI to thunderbolt convertor that will work? Is this plug and play technology or are there more complicated set-up [rocedures? Any help much appreciated.
