Digital Recorder

Evening everyone.
I have unfortunately had to terminate my mothers subscription to BT broadband and TV due to a berievement. I was told that i would be able to keep the digital recorder.  It has never been used as my deceised mother was unable to work it. My question is can the unit be connected to a TV set without subscribing to BT and used as a free standing Digital recorder.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

If the contract has been terminated early, then you may be asked to return the BT Vision box and hub, otherwise you may be charged for them.
Please check with BT first.

  • Using a portable digital recorder with MAC

    my bad - I just bought a panasonic portable digital recorder (about $70).
    I was assuming I could use it with my Mac OS X - I don't know why I assumed that, I just took it for granted that these recorders were like digital cameras, they would automatically work with any computer that had a USB input.
    wrong! when I connect it to the Mac, the recorder lights up and says "PC," as it is supposed to, and then, when I go into "about this mac" in the system profiler, it finds something on the USB port -
    but other than than that, I don't know how to access what's on the recorder - it doesn't mount on the desktop like a camera (I assumed it would).
    Can anyone help? is there any software out there that can read this little recorder - it's the Panasonic RR-US395.
    thanks!

    powerMac G5 single processor   Mac OS X (10.4.1)  

    What software came with ? I have used DVRs for years. The Olympus is what I currently use. Still using an older model though as I like the cradle type computer connection. All was fine until 10.4. I got it going on the MBP finally but gave up on the G4 as I don't boot it into 10.4 anymore and it does work fine in <3.9. It was a combination of timing on the install on the MBP. Plugged the unit in about 1/2 way through installation and had to have it connected and restarted before it actually worked. Random luck. It started asking me for a "key" number and no docs mentioned anything about this so I plugged the unit in and it continued to install. Installation would hang prior to this point if the device was plugged in first though.
    Do any apps try to launch when connected? I would also check iTunes and GarageBand or any other video/audio apps that you may have to see if it's "recognized" and shows up there anywhere. Does iPhoto think a camera is connected? As by design that is/was Apple's goal with 10.4. Ultimate connectivity. Everything that connects to your machine these days is categorized by class or "family" of products. Specific products i.e. Panasonic RR-US395, are "children" This is supposed to simplify things for HW/SW manufacturers creating products that are compatible with the Mac and if they don't Mac should be able communicate with it anyway providing basic I/O functionality void of product specific features. Reading your post I realized I have not even seen a reference to DVRs as being a device "family" and I am wondering if this has something to do with it as the MBP required me to install DSS Player.
    It is my contention that there is a serious issue with this I/O Kit (actually at the kernel level that the kit communicates with) and I am curious exactly what kind of "something" Profiler sees. A screen shot of the page w/ all the lists extended would be a great help.
    There is a Dictation/Transposing SW available I have since lost it and don't remember the name. Will try to hunt it down again as it was very useful, I downloaded it used it a few times and it worked great. Found a couple others with it that were free as well. Worked with various different DVR's and formats MacUpdate maybe?
    If there is no other way to connect it you can get a cable to go from the headphone jack on the DVR to the line in on the G5 record it w/ QT, GarageBand or the like.
    If you still have 9 installed Simple text allows you to record sounds as well.
    If you can return it Olympus does include Mac SW.
    FWIW

  • Which digital recorder works with a Mac Mini?

    Has anybody bought a Digital Recorded that can attach ti a Mac Mini? I've read up on the Olympus and Sony ones, but it seems none of them work with a Mac ? Do any of these recorders attach to a Mac through a USB ??? directly to a Mac ???

    Olympus' DS-330 connects via the USB port, and works for me...But I believe it's a discontinued model. Olympus posts their instruction manuals online!

  • Audio digital recording

    Yes, .wav or ,Mp3. with USB connection. I finding the Mac compatibles are about 200.00. The PC is about 60.00. I want to record some of our tele-conference classes, instead of using a cassette recorder, which is what I do now. I would like to place the file on the desktop and burn it to cd or put into my ipod for later listening. Will imac see the recorder? Any suggestion?

  • I have imported a Digital recording onto my Macbook Pro 10.6 and want to burn it to disc on Itunes but the file has gone to Quicktime. How do I transfer it?

    I have imported a digital recording on to my MacBook Pro 10.6. I want to move it to Itunes so that I can burn a CD but although I have created a new playlist, Itunes won't accept the file and instead it has gone to Quicktime and I can't transfer it or burn a CD. I have installed a Flip4Mac Upgrade but still no luck. I have managed to transfer previous files and burn CDs before so am not sure what the problem is.

    This file type is not supported by iTunes. I would recommend converting the file (I use convertfiles.com, but there are many choices) to MP3. It then can be added to iTunes.

  • Digital recorder audio not syncing with video footage

    Am I missing the obvious and easy method? When we shoot weddings, we always use a separate digital audio recorder and lav in the groom's pocket as a backup device. When it comes time to use that audio, it always goes askew compared to the video's audio. My guess is this happens because the video is only recording 29.97 frames per second and not a full 30, whereas the digital recorder provides a real-time recording. So, I end up having to shorten the audio every 10 seconds or so (by cutting out a few frames worth of audio) to keep everything synced. Is there a way to convert the audio from the pocket recorder to a video format so it will stay in sync without the need for editing it? Thanks!

    I tried the resampling and even though original file was 44.1khz and I did convert it to 48khz, after a few minutes go by the file still goes seriously out of sync. It's a 34 minute audio clip, and by the end of the clip, its about 3-4 seconds out of sync. Any other thoughts? Thanks!

  • Audio in a digital recorder into FCE4

    Want to record an interview using a lapel mike and a digital recorder. Tried an
    Olympus which uses a .WMA format, which I couldn't convert to anything acceptable by FCE4.
    Can anyone suggest 1 How to convert .WMA or else what type of digital recorder output is usable in FCE4?
    thanks

    hey there normrosenblatt,
    is there a line-out or headphone out on the recorder? if so you should be able to play the audio into GB using a "Basic Track" send to iTunes & import to FCE.
    good luck.

  • Digital Recorder with frequency response down to

    The product spec's for all these recorders seem to indicate a low frequency capability down to 20 Hz (some are higher, I've not seen any lower). Do you know what determines this? Is the recorder actually capable of measuring signals down closer to DC...even Hz or 0. Hz would be good.
    My goal is to record vibration signals using the external MIC input, which may be in this low frequency range. So I'm wondering if the 20 Hz limit arises from microphone/speaker limitations more than the recording circuitry itself.
    Appreciating any help...

    What kind of digital recorder are you using? The SoundBlaster cards, for instance, are DC filtered, so that low frequencies are attenuated. But I've found that they're still measureable down to 5Hz or so, but 0.5Hz, probably not.

  • Panasonic Digital Recorder download thru USB to MacBook

    The software I got with my new (in Mar of 2006) Panasonic IC RR-US380 Digital Recorder did not have Mac as an operating systems option. I was not concerned at the time since I only purchased my first Mac in June of 2010, BUT now I'm interested in being able to download the audio recordings to the MacBook Pro OSX Laptop.
    How do I do this?
    I am heading for a SolidWorks World Conference next week and want to recorded the many sessions I have signed up for.

    Check with Panasonic. Maybe they've released some Mac-compatible software since you bought the unit, or will have something else to suggest.

  • How do I download files from a digital recorder?

    How do I download files from a digital recorder?  I downloaded the software from Olympus online, but can't figure out how to bring it all together.

    It will probably help if you post the model number of the recorder so people know exactly what you're working with. Otherwise it's difficult to guess what might be of help.

  • How to digitally record audio? (iPad to MAC)

    Hello,
    I am generating sounds internally in my iPad 3 and I play it through the earphones. The thing is that I would like to record the generated samples in its digital form using a MAC Book Pro. We are doing it doing in its analog form but we are not achieving good results at low volumes.
    How is the best way to get this?
    We are managing 3 solutions here:
    1- Instead of send the samples to the audio codec they could be sent to RAM and saved into an txt file or similar. Then this txt file could be loaded on the MAC.
    2- We could route them to HDMI port using the dock and connect the cable to the HDMI port of the MAC.
    3 - We could route them to USB port using the dock and connect the cable to a USB port of the MAC.
    I don't think that the HDMI/USB ports of the MAC can act as a device (slave) and then record the digital samples in some file. Is it possible? How?
    Regards.

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)
