DV tape wasn't recorded in LP or SP.  Can i still import?

I'm trying to import footage on a tape that was recorded in someone else's camera while their camera was not set in LP or SP mode. is there any way to convert it? the video will play on the LCD screen on my camera, but it is jumpy, and won't play in the iMovie display at all.
I would appreciate any advice.

Try borrow the camera as well (or another). Buy a 4-pin to 4-pin Firewire cable. Connect the other camera directly to your camera (no computer!). Set your camera to SP mode and 16-bit audio. Press record on your camera. Press play on the other. Then you can import the copy.

  • Why does iMovie stop importing my tape from the camcorder even though it says it is still importing?

    Why does iMovie stop importing my tape from the camcorder even though it says it is still importing?

    It's difficult to be sure without doing some network packet sniffing, but if it were another app syncing, it would be an awful coincidence, since it seems to happen only while I'm in Reminders.app -- as soon as I click the home button and go back to the home screen, it stops; when I launch Reminders again, it starts again.
    Moreover, it happens when I am not in the house, which rules out iTunes syncing.
    Note that it's not the syncing spinner (i.e. two arrows chasing each other in a circle) -- it's the data access spinner (like the wait spinner in many apps and the apple.com search box).

  • I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R but will not play on my MacBook Pro. I have already recorded multiple DVDs. How can I get it to play on my Mac?

    I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R but will not play on my MacBook Pro. I have already recorded multiple DVDs. How can I get it to play on my Mac?

    "I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R"
    How? Using what equipment/software?
    "The DVD  plays on the device on which it was recorded."
    Just a guess: You're using a VCR-DVD combo recorder. DVDs produced in this way will play on the device that made them, but won't play on anything else until they're "finalized." In fact, Macs will recognize unfinalized DVDs as blank discs until the discs are finalized. Check the manual that came with the recording device for instructions.

  • HT5922 I've got android phone and a p.c.downloaded the airplay app on android.says tap button to record.now look in itunes.for airplay icon.but there is no icon in my itunes.so what now

    Please help me.ive downloaded the airplay app for.android.have a p.c.windows.got iTunes on it.ive just payed 5$ for this upgrade for airplay.opened app.says tap icon to record.then on p.c.in iTunes tap airplay icon.to select.d.c..but there is no airplay icon in my itunes.and to my knowledge I've got up to date itunes it update auto.please help I've already paid for this app

    No, this has nothing to do with Apple or iTunes.
    You are attempting to use a device unsupported by Apple or iTunes with an app written by some other developer to emulate an Apple device.  Talk to the app developer.
    If you have an ATV, AirPort Express, or some other supported AirPlay receiver and the AirPlay icon is not appearring, then it is an issue that would be appropriate to be discussed here.

  • My iphone 5 wont record video...it just remains still and stuck...

    my iphone 5 wont record video...it just remains still and stuck...can get it to work. Any ideas?

    Standard troubleshooting...
    Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider.  Slide to power off.  Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
    Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if, it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
    - Press the red (-) to delete all apps from this list.
    - Press the home button twice when done.
    If still a problem restore with your backup.
    If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
    If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

    I found an answer to this on another page (I was having the same problem) This worked for me:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.

  • Payment cancellation records with debit amount 0 can't be extracted to BW?

    Payment cancellation records with debit amount 0 can't be extracted to BW?
    We use 0FI_AP_4 to extract R3 data to an ODS.  We restrict the data selection in the ODS start routine of update rule to select company code range and accounting document types.  Today R3 people added one new accounting document type with 10 records generated.  Run RSA3 can see the 10 records with new accounting document types.  But somehow the 10 new records can't be brought into BW and we have tried many different ways by even just restrict company code range inside the start routine, but still not helpful.  All other document type records can be brought in except the 10 new records for the new document types which reflect payment cancellation.  We run RSA3 to compare the field value difference between the new doc type and other types, find the difference is on the debit amount value that all the new records debit amount values are null but with positive credit values and other doc types of records are the opposite that their debit amounts are positive and their credit amounts are 0.  The new records are not even in PSA.
    Is this the way SAP set up that only debit amount with values can be extracted to BW?
    Thanks

    hi Diego,
    We have tried almost everything like refresh the load from Initial, but still no help.
    A hint is that R3 people posted the records today which is 8/18 and the variant they used is V6 (July - June, 4 +1 year), the fiscal year for these new records are 2007.  The problem we found is on DEV and we found actually all transactions in the fiscal year 2007 have failed to be extracted to our DEV BW, but on our TEST system, all the transactions in the fiscal year 2007 have been extracted to BW. 
    Any idea?
    Thanks

  • Can't Move Imported Skype Recording in GarageBand

    Hi all,
    I run GB 10.0.2 on my MBP (OSX 10.9.2).
    I record a conversation in Skype using Call Recorder 2.5.8
    Whenever I import (drop & drag) a recorded track to GB, I can't move it and it shows a little lock Inside the track.
    I can cut parts out of the track, but I can't move it left or right.
    I can create a new track and drag it there. But the lock doesn't disappear, and the track won't move.
    I've looked in the Locked settings of GB and there (on the left sidebar) it shows as being unlocked.
    How do I solve this?
    thx
    Chris

    We would help, if we knew the answer, Chris. I have not worked with Call Recorder 2.5.8. So I cannot check the output format of that program, and we are supposed to try all advice on our own computer before recommending a solution. So I can give you only a general idea what to check for.
    What you are describing, is very typical for movie tracks. If you import a video instead of an audio file to GarageBand 10.0, the audio file track will be locked and cannot be moved.  What is the format of the media files you are importing to your GarageBand project?  If you want to edit the audio, try to extract the audio from your recorded conversation with the tools provided by "CallRecorder" and import only the audio, not the video.
    If that does not work, use GarageBand to extract the audio from your conversation.  After importing your saved conversation to a track, share the track (Share > Export song to disk) as an audio file to your disk. Then reimport the shared audio and delete the previous track.  Now you should be able to edit the audio properly.

  • Why can't I import a .mov created with QT screen recording into FCX?

    I created a .mov file with QuickTime's Screen Recording mode. The movie thus created opens in the QuickTime Player and plays fine, but when I try to import it into FCX's editor with File>Import, I get an error message: "File Error: 1 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown".
    Why can't I import this .mov to edit it in FCX?
    Thanks,
    George

    Bengt, I believe the OP's "FCX" does mean FCE.
    Like Al said, they need to be transcoded (say, to AIC) in something like MPEG Streamclip, QT Pro  or Compressor.
    Actually, FCP X will happily open them.

  • I imported a video and when I play it back, the audio does not match the video. When I view the tape in my camera it looks fine. I've tried imported twice and each time it doesn't match. What can I do to fix this?

    I imported a video and when I play it back, the audio does not match the video. When I view the tape in my camera it looks fine. I've tried imported twice and each time it doesn't match. What can I do to fix this?

    The default settings mostly likely use an audio sample rate of 32k. This doesn't work probably in FCP. You're probably better off capturing the tape in iMovie.

  • Recorded TV in 16:9.  VOB file imported into Premier Elements as 4:3

    I have imported a VOB file into Premier Elements.  It has been recorded in 16:9 format.  Unfortunately, when imported it converts to a 4:3.  Can some please explain why?
    Tony

    In the Project Panel, you can Rt-click on the Clip and choose Interpret footage. There, you can change things like Frame Rate, PAR (Pixel Aspect Ratio), and can also change how an Alpha Channel is used, should your footage have an Alpha Channel.
    It can be useful, especially with regards to the PAR. Since Frame Size is the same for NTSC 4: 3 & 16:9, except for the PAR to display "regular," or WideScreen.
    Good luck, and do check out how well your machine handles the Menuing functions. That is where many DVR's and VHS to DVD, plus much software deviates from the DVD-specs. Because the first .VOB contains Menus, as well as the first part of the MPEG-2 stream, it is usually where problems will arise. This is covered in that article. With programs, such as Adobe Encore, the DVD's first .VOB WILL be 100% DVD-compliant.

  • Records goin to exception folder with "Ready to Import" status

    Hello experts:
    I am using import server to extract master data to MDM Data Manager, but after one true exception all the files keep going to the Exception folder, when I process them to the import manager through Port --> Exception folder, there are not really any exceptions, I go to Import Status tab and all of them are "ready to Import".
    Any idea how to fix that?
    Thanks for your help,
    Claudia Hardeman

    Hello Claudia,
    "Ready to Import" in Import Manager means, that the field and value mapping is complete and that you can start the import process. During the import process it is possible that exceptions (e.g. value exceptions like a "Unique Constraint Violation") occure, so that the records can be imported partially only. So did you actually import the records in Import Manager?
    Additionally you can have a look at the Import logs. They should contain some information why a file is placed into an exception folder.
    Depending on the port configuration in MDM Console you might have to cleanup the exceptions first to unblock the port, too.
    Best regards
    Michael

  • Help! We have a form with more than 200 entries and when I looked at it yesterday it had one! When you download the form to excel they all show up. However, when I added another record today it disappeared. Can you tell me what's happening? I've been usin

    Help! We have a form with more than 200 entries and when I looked at it yesterday it had one! When you download the form to excel they all show up. However, when I added another record today it disappeared. Can you tell me what's happening? I've been using adobe forms for 2 years with mass response feedback and have never had this problem.

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.
