HD from cam to display – how?

A newbie question. I am still working with standard definition miniDV camera, but as I will soon purchase a big HD 1080p flatpanel LCD, thoughts coming up of maybe buying a HD camera too. For that decision I want to know how can I achieve to get HD video from the camera to the display?
A 1080p LCD uses 1920x1080 pixels, so I hope HD cams sold today do shoot in this resolution too? Strange is the do never reveal on Amazon whats precisely the resolution of the cams.
OK, if so, I would then import the HD 1920x1080 pixel movie into iMovie and edit, and from there to iDVD. I would burn on a standard 4GB DVD-R, and of course I will not have so much time to put there as with standard resolution video, how much? Maybe 30 minutes?
Then comes an other question. When I burn a standard 4GB DVD-R thats readable by a standard DVD player, but is such a player able to stream HD video to the Display? Or does this need a special DVD player, or is the whole thing only possible with the new Blueray DVD's?
Will this work with standard RGB cable connection or does full HD need a digital connection between Player and Display? If so, which?
Thanks,
Thomas

Hello, Thomas,
I saw your post(s) and thought I would direct you to some threads that might assist you.
David Babsky has a wealth of knowledge to share, and I think he got his HD camcorder early on. Read his postings and links here:

  • Ipad2: pictures transfered from camera, not displayed on my mac (iphoto, itune , phototransfert.....)

    Hello communities,
    I have a simple issue, I have bought an ipad 2 this summer and transfered the picture from my camera in my device. all was perfect to see each evening the piture daily pictures  by using a Diaporama.
    Now, I would like  transfer the picture to my Mac. But I can't see images when I connect my Ipad elseif  I Use Itune ,Iphoto, Image transfert or another applications....
    What can I do? All is correct on my ipad , it's like the files are invisible...
    Advance thank for your answers.
    Regards

    Have you tried a reset of the iPad : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. Have you also tried rebooting your Mac ?
    Do the photos still show in the Photos app on the iPad ?

  • Tiffs from camera not displaying preview

    My Panasonic DMC-FZ3 camera takes each photo as both a tiff and a jpeg (it uses the jpeg for display on its built-in lcd). The Finder and Apple apps are having a problem with the tiffs (the jpegs are fine). The finder does not display a preview, and the creation date is blank (could this be the problem?). Any attempt to open the files in Preview or import them into iPhoto gives me an error message saying that the files are either unsupported or corrupted. When I used the camera in October there was no problem with the tiffs created by this camera.
    The files open fine in Photoshop, Graphic Converter, several other graphics apps, and even Camino and Firefox. If I edit the files and re-save in one of these other programs, the files will then display a preview, open in Preview, and import into iPhoto, but I shouldn't have to do this time consuming intermediate step.
    I do not believe this is a problem with the camera. I pulled out an old SD card with photos over 1 year old that had imported fine last November, but I got the error message when trying to import them this time.
    I searched these forums and found others with a similar problem, but none of the advice in those threads worked for my issue. I have tried changing the file name, repairing permissions, changing ownership on the library, and running the daily, weekly and monthly unix maintenance scripts. I even reinstalled iPhoto 5.0.4, but no luck.
    I think the problem must be deeper than that, because Preview and Safari also refuse to open the tiffs. With that in mind, I ran the 10.4.3 combo updater, but still no go.
    Any suggestions?
    PB G4 12 1GHz DVI   Mac OS X (10.3.7)  

    My camera doesn't do RAW, just jpeg and tiff.
    I doubt the files are too large. The tiffs are about 8.5mb each, not overly large at all. The 16 bit question doesn't explain why the OS, Preview, and iPhoto had no problems just 4 months ago.
    Another poster here traced the problem to OS 10.4.3. He thinks the .4.3 update broke something in the tiff handling ability. I wonder if there is an older library component I could import that would fix this?

  • Camera Viewfinder - Display Issues

    BB 8100 Smartphone (EDGE) v4.5.0.110 (Platform 2.7.0.90)
    Updated to new version firmware last night to get MMS capability and try to remove sepia like view from camera screen display when taking pictures.  Halfway successful - Can now send MMS with photo attachment.
    Camera still shows sepia like viewfinder.  Sort of like night vision or infrared thermal imaging.  No Option tab in camera settings to select different display or picture mode - eg. Normal, B&W or sepia.
    here are camera setting:
    Default Flash - automatic
    White Balance - auto
    Pic Size - LG (1280 x 1024)
    Pic Quality - Superfine
    Store pics - device memory
    Is problem with camera hardware or maybe new software will fix?
    Pictures turn out fine (were really blurry but improved greatly when I carefully cleaned the lens )

  • Add picture from camera roll to existing album?

    I have created albums and want to add more pictures from camera roll.  How to do that?

    If you want to add them to albums that you've created directly on the iPad then go into the album that you want to add the photos to, tap the icon at the top right of the screen that looks like a box with an arrow coming out of it, and you should then get an option next to that icon to 'Add Photos'.
    If you want to add photos to albums that you synced from your computer then you'll need to copy the photos to your computer, add them to the folders that the albums came from, and then re-sync

  • How to Snap/Grab Image from 1394 camera and display the Image in CWIMAQVIEWER in VC++ ?

    Hi,
    I have :  -  IMAQ1394 2.0.1
                  -  NI Vision 7.1
    In VB, I can Snap/Grab Image from 1394 camera and display the Image in CWIMAQVIEWER :
        Dim Image0 As New CWIMAQImage
        imaq1394SnapCW(sid0,Image0)
        CWIMAQViewer1.Attach Image0
    Now,How can I do this in VC++6.0?
        I tried:
                  C_CWIMAQImage m_imgViewer1;
                  m_imgViewer1 = m_CWIMAQVision1.CreateCWIMAQImage();
                  m_CWIMAQViewer1.Attach(m_imgViewer1);

        Please help me!
        Thank you!

    For people looking back at these old posts regarding
    CWIMAQViewer - it was not made to be used in the C environments and is made
    for VB.
    Refer to the following locations for displaying images in C
    environments:
    Start»All Programs»National Instruments»Vision»Documentation
    Start»All
    Programs»National Instruments»Vision»Text Based Examples
    Make
    sure that you look at the examples and documentation that is in

  • LR displays "no preview available" upon import direct from camera after last update. How do I fix this?

    Hey everyone in Apple world!
    I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP!  Yessssss!!!
    I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process.  Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal.  No flashing yellow screen anymore!!   
    (Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
    Let me know if this works for you!

  • I have a late 2011 model MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion.  I love the AirPlay mirroring feature with Apple TV...BUT, how do I mirror with TVs that don't have Apple TV?  I used to run a cable from my mini display port to the HDMI input of a TV.

    I have a late 2011 model MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion.  I love the AirPlay mirroring feature with Apple TV...BUT, how do I mirror with TVs that don't have Apple TV?  I used to run a cable from my mini display port to the HDMI input of a TV.  This feature seems to be lost in the Mountain Lion upgrade.  Did Apple feel that once Mountain Lion came out that EVERYONE would have Apple TV?  There are no settings in System Preferences/Display like there used to be...only for AirPlay Mirroring.

    Running a cable to the HDMI port is still supported. (and still works on mine).
    If the Arrangement tab in System Preferences > Displays isn't present then it doesn't recognize the physical connection.  Double check all cables.  If that doesn't work try a PRAM reset:

  • When importing from my camera or file in Lightroom 5 my pictures are over-exposed by 1-2 stops, while they are well exposed on the camera-screen. How to get the 'right-exposed pictures on the screen?

    When importing from my camera or file in Lightroom 5 my pictures are over-exposed by 1-2 stops, while they are well exposed on the camera-screen. How to get the 'right-exposed pictures on the screen?

    There is an option in your Lightroom preferences on the General tab, "Treat JPEG files next to raw files as separate images". If you have that option checked then Lightroom will import and display both your raw and JPEG files. Are you using active D-lighting on your camera? If you are then you need to turn off that feature.

  • How to open images in Fill Screen mode from Camera Raw

    I am using Photoshop CS4 for Windows. I created an action that executes Fit on Screen and set the Scripts Event Manager to execute that action on the Open Document event. This works when opening a document from Photoshop.
    Here are my questions:
    1) After opening a raw image from Bridge in Camera Raw, when I then open the image in Photoshop, it does not run the Open Document event action to Fit on Screen. What event do I need to set the action to execute on when opening an image from Camera Raw in Photoshop?
    2) I added Fit on Screen to the action by selecting Insert Menu Item from the Actions menu and then selecting View-Fit on Screen. I cannot find Fill Screen on any pull-down menu (the button found on the Hand tool bar). How can I insert the Fill Screen item (which fills the screen a little more than Fit on Screen?
    3) In the Scripts Events Manager, when you select Add an Event, it says Any scriptable event can be entered here. See the Scripting Reference for the full list of Photoshop event names.. On the following Adobe webpage, I found the Adobe Photoshop CS4 Scripting Guide but I did not find a list of Photoshop event names in that document. Where can I find the list of Photoshop event names?

  • HT4101 Once pictures are moved from your camera to your iPad (using the camera connection kit), how do you get the photos off of the iPad? They do not show up in my photo stream or my iCloud.

    Once pictures are moved from your camera to your iPad (using the camera connection kit), how do you get the photos off of the iPad? They do not show up in my photo stream or my iCloud. I am able to see any photo I took on the iPad using the iPad camera (in iTunes, photo stream, or when I open windows explorer and browse the iPad director), however I cannot see any photos transfered from my camera to the iPad. The camera connection kit must have put my photos in a directory I cannot get to and cannot sync.

    How do you do that? I've tried through iPhoto and iTunes and in neither case are the images/videos from the Camera Roll accessable. Images from Photo Stream are, but not Camera Roll. And since images/videos saved from Messages end up in Camera Roll, I can't figure out how to get them either into Photo Stream or transfered to my computer.

    I want to take pics w/ the phone and then view them on my PC. I can't seem to get the photos and video to move from 'camera roll' to 'photo stream' so that I can work with them on my PC. I can move pics on my PC into the photostream upload folder and those appear quicklly on my phone in the photo stream album.
