Flip webcam video

Hi, I found in flash webcam is showing is flipped output, like if you move your right hand then in video it will show left side, if you turn on right, it shows in left turn.
but for my project requirement I need to flip this. check this issue
var vid:Video=new Video
var cam:Camera=Camera.getCamera()
  vid.attachCamera(cam)
  addChild(vid);
this will shows opposite output, and I have tried
vid.scaleX=-1
but this dosen't work

That does work. When you just set scaleX the video is now off screen left... after setting scaleX add this:
vid.x = vid.width;

  • How to make vertical flip of video webcam.

    Hi all.
    I am using logitech webcam, i can show video and take piture well.
    Now i want to make vertical flip of video.
    They can do it ? If you have any experience, please help me.
    Thanks.
    Diego

    Well, I really see 2 avenues you can go down...
    The "proper" way to do it would be to create a custom "effect" that would flip the video frames inside the processor. You'd want to base this off the following example code:
    [http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/solutions/RotationEffect.html]
    The "easy" way to do it would be to render the graphics yourself. You would just essentially need to create a class that implements the "VideoRender" interface (probably extending a JPanel implementing VideoRenderer), and use the BufferToImage class inside the "process" function to convert the inputted buffer object into a BufferedImage, which you would then render to the JPanel upside down... This probably sounds more complicated than it is, however... Process gives you a frame as a buffer, you use a utility to convert the buffer to an image, and then you draw the image to the screen. Quite a simple procedure, really...

    There are some Flip models on the supported list.

  • Webcam Video pauses when recording sound from microphone

    I have a strange problem which i am encountering when recording and playing back webcam video.
    I am developing a small application for recording webcam video and audio using FMS and playing it back later from FMS.
    I am using AS 3.0, FMS 3.5 and flash CS 5.5
    When i record only the video from webcam without sound from microphone the playback is fine. But when i record microphone sound also along with the video, and when i playback the video pauses right where the sound starts for 10 sec or more and then it starts playing. Towards the end the video pauses again and only the sound goes on till the end.
    I tried setting the buffertime to 50 before ns.publish and ns.play but that didnt help either.
    I tried using the flvplayback component and even their it pauses.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Haha, that is such a genius use of common sense! Thank you, I didn't think of that. I certainly will!
    However, does anyone know if there is a way of adjusting the program of garageband to fix this issue? Using headphones certainly fixes the symptoms of my problem, but it doesn't actually address the root cause: garageband should only be recording the input through the microphone. I shouldn't need to wear headphones. (And doing so inhibits my ability to clearly hear myself play, and stay in tune.)

  • Webcam video streaming question

    Hello,
    Before I buy the Flash Media Server, i would like to know that:
    - is it possible to crop the webcam video (because I need just one part of the whole picture) before streaming from the client's Flash Player to the Media Server? (it would reduce the bandwidth a lot)
    - if not, can the player store some parts of video until it is fully streamed with all it's data (30 fps) to the Server? (e.g: client: low bandwidth, i need all frames that the webcam records, real-time doesn't matter if it takes 1 minutes for 20sec video, that would be ok.
    Thanks,
    Peter

    It is not possible to crop the video in the flashplayer. You can use the Camera.setMode method with the favorArea flag set to true to force an unsuppored resolution, but that often results in lowered image quality.
    You can't store video locally, but you can increase the buffer in efforts to minimize frame drops (see the bufferTime property of the netstream class). When using a publishing buffer, the Flashplayer will only start dropping frames when the buffer is full. I've never tried using a buffer of more than 10 seconds on a publishing stream, so I don't know if there is an upward limit (nothing in the docs about that). That said, if the user does not have sufficient bandwidth to publish in real time, frames will start dropping eventually... no way to completely avoid that AFAIK, other than reducing the publishing bitrate.

  • Best workflow/solution for converting Flip HD Videos in FC

    Ok, I have tried many different video/audio settings for bringing in Flip HD videos to edit and ultimately output using H.264 into .mov and .m4p files (for uploading to various web sites). I cannot seem to get a good result - lousy audio syncing and crappy looking video. The footage itself but I am not getting what settings to use to get it into FC, edited, and then out at least in some reasonably decent looking and sounding format. Advice please and thanks.
    I have used Compressor to prep the footage but I was hoping to not have to go through so many many steps to get something done with this footage.

    I have a flip UltraHD and am running FCP 6.0.5
    This is my process.
    • Copy the files from the camera to my scratch folder.
    • Open up Compressor and create a custom preset for ProRes422 to use the existing video size and frame rate with audio conversion to 48khz (the camera records 720p30 and 44.1khz). Set the destination to "Source". Of course, you only need to do this the first time. Once you've created the preset, setting up the files in Compressor goes very quickly.
    • Add the files to the batch list in Compressor.
    • Drop the new preset on the clips and let your computer run. If you have a multi core intel mac, make sure you have set up the machine to use quick clustering. On a MacPro w/ 10GB of ram this goes very quickly.
    • Go have a cup of coffee or your favorite cold beverage.
    • Come back.
    • Edit in a ProRes422 timeline to match your settings.
    Note: ProRes files are not small. But, no one ever said this was an inexpensive or easy game.
    Have fun.

  • Is it possible to flip stage video playback horizontally on iOS?

    I'm using stage video in an app to play back some video and it would be useful if I could offer users the option to flip the video along the horizontal axis. 
    i.e. the equivalent of scaleX = -1 on a normal display object. 
    The reason I want to do this is that the video is of people and flipping the video would flip their handedness (so right handers become left handers).
    Is this possible?  It is quite easy to do with 'normal' video (i.e. scaleX = -1) but on iPad I am using stageVideo (primarily to try to maximse performance which I belive stageVideo does) and as it isn't a real display object it doesn't have the necessary scaleX property.
    Does anyone know if this is possible?

    I'm using Flash CS6 and stageWebVideo (not stageVIdeo).  If you're asking if the video window can be changed when the device orientation is changed, this is how I did it:
    // Landscape orientation
    videoFile = MovieClip(root).imagesPath + "31_resources.pdf";
    stageWebView = new StageWebView(); 
    stageWebView.stage = stage;
    if (stageOrientation == "horiz") {
    stageWebView.viewPort = new Rectangle(((resolutionY-940)/2), 210, 940, 430);
    // Then... when changed to Portrait orientation...
    if (stageWebView != null) {
       stageWebView.viewPort = new Rectangle(0, 285, 640, (resolutionY - 285));
    In other words, I change the stageWebView.viewPort rectangle accordingly when device orientation changes.  Not sure if this helps you.

  • How do I flip a video permanently?

    I understand that I can flip a video by putting it in a project and then applying an effect, or just flip it in the inspector. But how do I flip the original clip from the event? I don't want to have to do this every time I put it in a new project? Thanks.

    FCP does not support non-standard frame ratios like vertical video. There is a complex workaround that allows you to do this

  • Finding webcam video

    Hello Mr. Romano: Since the Oct.20,2013  1:45 PM reply from you I have been very happy. After yesterday not so much. I edited my Logitech webcam video and when I was finished for the day I clicked File and clicked SAVE AS. I normaly click SAVE but I thought SAVE AS would be safer. Well the name of the file changed from George Bio. #1 WMV to George Bio. #1 PREL.When I load it into Premier  Elements 10 the monitor and all the panels in the Sceneline and Timeline are a dark red. They used to be a yellow color and it worked. Now I can click on the (red) monitor start arrow and the timer runs but nothing shows. There is a George Bio. #1 WMV icon in the Organizer but the computer cannot activate it. Do I have to start all over or can this be fixed? Also can you please advise. If I make a new video and run it thru  Windows Movie Maker and get a video with George Bio. #1 WMV , what should be the correct New Project settings? The webcam records in HD 1080.  Thank you for any help.    George

    George
    Let us start with the last question
    If I make a new video and run it thru  Windows Movie Maker and get a video with George Bio. #1 WMV , what should be the correct New Project settings? The webcam records in HD 1080.
    You will need to check this out, but it looks like your webcam video is 1080p30 (that is 1920 x 1080 @ 30 progressive frames per second). If you imported that into Windows Movie Maker and wanted to export it as 1080p30, when you got to Save Movie,
    a. first see what the program wants to give you under Recommended Settings...if it looks like 1080p30, go with that setting.
    b. if Recommended Settings did not look correct, then go down the list to where it says Create Custom Setting and do just that, making sure to include in your custom setting
    Frame Width 1920
    Frame Height 1080
    Frame Rate 30 frames per second
    Now if you wanted to take the export 1080p30 wmv file and import that into Premiere Elements 10, then
    a. Set the Premiere Elements 10 project preset = NTSC/DSLR/1080p/DSLR 1080p30
    b. Then use Get Media/Files and Folders to bring your 1080p30 wmv into the project.
    Now for this saving matter....lots of possibilities...
    Given you had the George Bio #1. wmv on the Timeline of your Premiere Elements 10 project (this project otherwise known as a project file named project.prel). What you have is a Premiere Elements 10 project which includes a copy of your wmv video file (not the original) that traces back to the original on the hard drive.
    When you opened the new project, the save for that project was set in the new project dialog where you set the project preset. The project (project.prel) with the video inside it is found in the new project dialog save location.  And that is where the saved closed project would be automatically when you saved closed the project.
    However, you decided to Save As before the Save or in place of the Save, two leading possibilities are:
    a. you over wrote the original project prel file
    b. you now have a version of that project.prel in two different places
    In all this, you should not have lost the original George Bio#1 WMV. That should be on the computer hard drive where you saved it before Premiere Elemens entered into all this.
    Do you remember changing the file name and/or location for the project.prel when you did the Save As?
    Let us start here and then see what we can put together to get beyond these setbacks.
    Minor setback. We will be back on track again.

  • Flip Ultra video, Mino HD, or Kodak Zi6 camera

    I am interested in purchasing either a Flip Ultra Video, Flip Mino HD or a Kodak Zi6 video camera. I know the Kodak will hold more video as it will take a SD card. What I want to use one of these cameras for is quick, on the spot videos from kids parties, sport events, quick vacation videos, etc... I want to be able to shoot video, plug it in to the USB, store the video on the mac and be able to burn a disc (easily) when I want to and be able to send them out to family for play on their DVD players. I'm not interested in doing a lot of editing (yet), just point, shoot, plug in and burn. I have been to the electronic stores to play with them and have seen how easy they are to use. Does anyone have opinions or advice on which one will be the best for my more simple needs?

    Welcome to iMovie Discussions.
    I can't speak for the other two models, as I haven't tried them (..though I have tried, and used, the ordinary Flip which shoots in standard-definition 4x3 aspect).
    But I use the Flip minoHD occasionally (..whip it out of the pocket, press the switch to start, and then press the big red button to record..) and it's very handy, and the resolution is terrific for such a teeny device.
    It has only a 2x zoom, however, and that's a digital zoom; which means that the picture is less sharp (..it's simply magnified..) than normal when it's zoomed.
    At its standard, un-zoomed, resolution though, it's a surprisingly good camera.
    Just so that you can see how it looks, here's some footage (..the last sixth of this short video..) shot with the FmHD. You may have to wait a little while for this to load, depending on how fast your broadband connection is..

  • How to extract a10 framess from webcam video..wait for sometime then extract 10 more frames

    Sir, 
    I need to extract 10 frames from a real time webcam video..wait for a particular period of time (say 5 sec) and then extract 10 more frames repeat this procedure 15 times. I tried using vision acquisition too..but i couldnt solve the problem. im using Labview 2011..please help me with this issue. 

    I am guessing that this is a Homework problem.  It will not help you to learn LabVIEW if someone else does your work for you.  On the other hand, it might actually be part of the specification for some code that your employer needs to have completed -- if so, are there LabVIEW "experts" there that you can consult?
    If you do, indeed, need someone to develop a "finished product" for you, you will need to provide a full specification of what is involved, and (especially if this is job-related) might consider hiring someone to do this for you.
    On the other hand, if you are a student learning LabVIEW, review your earlier Homework assignments, ask your Professor for help, and write as much code as you can!  Learning to program (in LabVIEW, Fortran, C, Java, it really doesn't matter) is not an "intellectual exercise" -- it is a "Practice makes Perfect" endeavor.

  • Hi, haven't used iMovie in years.  I shot some video with my cell phone camera (Samsung Galaxy S2).  When I tried to make a movie, the clips I downloaded played back sideways on iMovie.  Is there any way I an flip the video from horizontal to vertical?

    You actually want a vertical video??
    What would you show that on?!
    Rotating video or photos in iMovie 11:
    http://help.apple.com/imovie/#mov3a884fd3
    In earlier versions of iMovie you can also do this using Quicktime Pro 7:
    Open MOV file in QT Pro (QT 7.6.6)
    Window -> Show Movie Properties
    select "Video Track"
    select "Visual Settings" from lower window
    check "Preserve Aspect Ratio"
    Click on appropriate rotation icon (MOV rotates!)
    Click back on the open MOV in Player Window
    FILE -> Save
    You can also do this using TransformMovie, available here:

  • [OS X] display live isight webcam video

    I'd like to show live video (from the iSight webcam on my macbook) in a view. I'd also like to scan each frame and possibly change some pixels.
    There are a ridiculous amount of APIs that I've come across in researching this: QuickTime, CoreImage, CoreVideo, Quartz, OpenGL, etc.
    I found the sample-code project QTQuartzPlayer which is able to display live webcam video (and move the OpenGL camera). However, I've had some trouble dissecting the code, because of the various barely-documented API calls.
    It seems like this line is the only thing that references the webcam in some way; It opens the default sequence grab component (which happens to be the webcam).
    // SeqGrabComponent _grabber;
    _grabber = OpenDefaultComponent(SeqGrabComponentType, 0);
    It also seems that the stream from the webcam needs to be decompressed (using ICMDecompressionSession).
    Anyways, can anyone give me some tips on how to accomplish this? In particular, look at/change pixels in each frame.

  • Any Advice to Fix/Enchance Lenovo G480 Webcam Video Quality?

    Lenovo G480-5801, 2332
    Intel B960M, I can't find my Lenovo type on website, so I just assume everything is just the same like other G480 type.
    Just purchased recently, it cames with 2GB RAM only, at first very slow
    After upgrading to 8GB everything is great.
    But there still a problem with Webcam though, and because of that I had to purchase a webcam for video chat.
    for comparison
    Built-in WebCam
    Logitech C170
    Yes I know, I'm not expecting it's going to be good like C170 that, but at least I do expect the image viewable, and it's not, is that normal?
    also about Mic built-in, no one can hear what I'm saying because lot's of noise/echo, and I have to disable it and use Mic from C170.
    Thank you.
