How do you shoot and record videos on iSight? Also, how to do multi screen?

I've never tried using the camera. Just didn't have a need for it, but I'm gonna start making videos. How do I do this? I'm stupid=(

For one thing, please post ONE question per thread.
In answer to your question, the iSight wasn't really built for shooting video (it's low resolution and the built-in ones are fixed-distance, so they won't work well for anything more than a few feet away. Nevertheless, you can use something like iVeZeen by Boinx Software to acquire video from the iSight.
As to your second question, what do you mean multi-screen? Multi-screen what?

  • How can I publish and record video stream in h.264 format

    I'm a fresher. I want to publish and record video stream in h.264 and audio stream in AAC format .
    Does flash player support to publish video stream in h.264 format ?
    And which version of flash player and FMS could implement this function ?
    Thank you very much.

    The Flashplayer does not support h264 or AAC publishing. The Flashplayer supports only h.263 (sorenson spark) video, and Nellymoser Asao and Speex audio.
    If you want to publish h.264 you'll need to use Flash Media Live Encoder, or a third party encoder.

  • How do you watch and record a live h.264 stream at the same time using fmis and FMLE?

    I've read all the similar post but could not find a solution that actually works, and please no "just use the dvr or record on the FMLE suggestions" as neither will work for me.
    Some posts I've read suggest naming the stream in the FMLE to something like mp4:mystream.mp4 or mp4:mystream.f4v but then you can no longer view the stream, and according my the admin console the stream will not even publish using this syntax.
    I can view the published stream if I name the FMLE stream to something like mystream.mp4 or just mystream, but then it doesn't record at all or records as a FLV file depending on how I code the main.asc file.
    Here's one version of my main.asc, this one correctly publishes the live stream after the client triggers the joinStreams function but will not record it.
    application.onConnect = function (client, userType)
        trace("userType is " + userType);
        this.acceptConnection(client);
        //this.clientCount++;
        client.joinStreams = function (channel)
            trace("joinStreams on channel " + channel);
            liveVid = Stream.get("livevideo/" + channel + ".mp4");
            liveVid.play("hdvideo/" + channel, -1, -1);
            liveVid.record("append");
        client.clearStream = function (channel)
            trace("clearStream on channel " + channel);
            liveVid = Stream.get("livevideo/" + channel + ".mp4");
            liveVid.play(false);
            delete liveVid;
    I've been working on this for 48 hours straight, please advise.

    I think lets keep it simple, will explain what you have for watching live streams and recorded streams
    Live Publish and Play:
         FMLE Settings:
    Video Codec: H.264
    Audio Codec:<any of your choice>
    Server URI : Please put your server uri with application name here , for example i will use "rtmp://myServer/myApp"
    Stream name: livestream
        Subscriber Settings:
              Server URI :  "rtmp://myServer/myApp"          Stream name: livestream
              Mode: "live" ( i.e. ns.play("livestream",-1,-1,true)
    Playing VOD H.264 file:
         Subscriber settings:
              Server URI :  "rtmp://myServer/myApp"
              Stream name: if file name is "sample", use "mp4:sample", if file name is sample.f4v, use "mp4:sample.f4v"
              Mode: "record" ( i.e. ns.play("mp4:sample.f4v",0,-1,true)
    For DVR (Record-in-progress stream)
    If you are using FMLE and want to use "Record" option of FMLE then you need to have to dvrcast_origin application and subscrier needs to FLVPlayback 2.5 component
    If you want to use that option, do let me know i will give details later.
    For now we will use simple server-side code and FMLE as publisher.
    main.asc of "myApp"
    application.onPublish = function(myclient,mystream){
         mystream.record();
    application.onUnpublish = function(myclient,mystream){
         mystream.record(false);
    FMLE Settings:
    Video Codec: H.264
    Audio Codec:<any of your choice>
    Server URI : Please put your server uri with application name here , for example i will use "rtmp://myServer/myApp"
    Stream name: mp4:mydvrstream.f4v
        Subscriber Settings:
              Server URI :  "rtmp://myServer/myApp"          Stream name:  mp4:mydvrstream.f4v
              Mode: "live" ( i.e. ns.play(" mp4:mydvrstream.f4v",0,-1,true)
    Try out above and let me know if that works or does not work for you.

  • How do you import a recorded video chat into iMovie 09?

    I recorded a video chat, and I have tried to import it a few times, but every time it never imports and says there are no clips in the event. What do I do?
    thanks, Paige

    Hi,
    I am having the same problem. The video I took appears as a .MOV file and nothing seems strange about it (plays in iTunes and iPhoto). I tried copying it to the desktop and importing, and that says nothing to import. It also does not appear in the iPhoto Movie browser in iMovie. Is there some sort of security setting that wouldn't allow an iChat video clip to appear in iMovie?
    I am using iChat 5.0.3 (745) and iMovie 8.0.6 (821).
    Regards,

    There are 4 confusing pages of updates listed at Apples website for Boot Camp. I am having a hard time understanding what I need and don't need. For example, what version of Boot Camp do I have? I have Boot Camp Assistant version 3.0.4. Does this mean I have Boot Camp ver 3?
    You have Mac OS X Snow Leopard, so you are going to use Boot Camp 3 on Windows. After installing Windows 7 on your MacBook, insert the Snow Leopard DVD and install the Boot Camp drivers from here. Then, as the Boot Camp drivers that your Snow Leopard disc contain are outdated, open Apple Software Update on Windows to install the most recent Boot Camp drivers.

But the instructions only cover using the original disks. How do I use downloaded drivers?
    On Snow Leopard, you can only download the Boot Camp drivers for the Late 2010 MacBook Air. On Lion and Mountain Lion, you have to download the Boot Camp drivers for all the computers. If you try to download the Boot Camp drivers on Snow Leopard with your computer, you will get a message telling that there aren't any drivers to download for your MacBook Pro

  • I went in you tube and watched videos on how to fix my headphone jack and its not the headphones cause when I look inside I see this little white costing in there I think that's the problem how can I fix it

    I went in you tube and watched videos on how to fix my headphone jack and its not the headphones cause when I look inside I see this little white costing in there I think that's the problem how can I fix it

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Make sure that y do not leave any foreign material or leave anything in the jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
    Apple - iPod Repair price                  
    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

  • FCE HD(Preferably 3.5), how do you like, and is it worth buying?

    Hi Everyone. I am seriously thinking about buying a Macbook and Final Cut Express 3.5, but I need some insider's opinions before I seal the deal. How do you like FCE? Do you feel like your getting as much Bang for your Buck as possible? Or is it simply just a reasonably priced software package? How do you like the selection of transitions, filters, and LiveType Options? Do you feel that there are enough choices of transitions, filters, LT Options? Are there enough custimizable options to give your project a personal touch? Overall, how do you like FCE as a whole? Also, please feel free to elaborate or further explain yourself in any way, shape, or form. I would especially appreciate it if someone would give there personal opinion of the selection of Transitions, Filters, and LiveType options(as you can see the amount of transitions, filters, etc. are a major concern to me, as I feel that I can edit alot better with a large range of choices).
    Please Reply, and every word you type will be carefully read over and consider by me. Once again, your Support is **GREATLY** Appreciated. Thank you so much!

    Final Cut Express HD 3.5(Universal)   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I've used the gamut - iMovie HD, FCE 3.5, and now FCP 5.2.
    I originally just used iMovie HD. Say what you want about it, for quick edits and even professional looking basic videos (even in HD), it does a pretty good job. It's an amazingly powerful little editor for the price.
    But there isn't too much tweaking you can do to the built in effects, and there's nothing like LiveType with it... so I then moved to FCE 3.5.
    FCE 3.5 is almost identical to FCP 5 - the difference are small but to some, substantial. Paraphrased from GeniusDV.com: "FCE only supports the HDV format. HDV is a compressed format which uses mpg2 for its video compression scheme. HDV is starting with a 25Mbit signal with 4:2:0 color space. Final Cut Pro on the other hand can be configured to support ALL major formats of HD, including DVCPro HD. DVCPro HD is 100Mbit at 4:2:2. Unless you are a broadcast technician, don't let the numbers scare you. HDV still looks VERY good."
    They're right about HDV, and I shoot in it exclusively. A critical feature to add is that FCE does not do "native HDV"; all the HDV footage must be recompressed into the Apple Intermediate Codec for editing. (iMovie HD does this too). This results in one more compress-recompress cycle and also causes footage to take up at least 3X the storage on your hard drive. It works though. Native HDV support in FCP was one of the main reasons I switched.
    "FCE has many of the standard effects found in Final Cut Pro, with the following exceptions. There is no three-way color corrector, which means the ability to control the blacks, whites and greys of an image independently.... FCE does not support time-remapping. You may also have heard the term time-warp. This basically refers to the ability to speed up and slow down video over a fixed amount of time. And finally, no After Effects plug-in architecture is supported for FCE."
    "Other feature differences
    No customizable mapping of the keyboard, No support for third party capture cards. No ability to batch record No 24P support."
    FCE does come with Soundtrack (a less-featured version of Soundtrack Pro), 4GB of nice Apple Loops, 4GB of LiveType fonts and effects, and a training DVD. LiveType is, to me, like "Motion Lite" and some cool title work can be done with it.
    The addition of Soundtrack Pro isn't that significant over Garageband's integration with iMovie HD, but the addition of the loops and LiveType is. You can create significantly nicer titles in LiveType that go beyond Apple's iMovie templates. If you want to stick with the templates though (which afford a small amount of customization options), iMovie still works ok for basic edits.
    Final Cut Studio also offers very good integration with Motion, Shake, DVD Studio Pro, and Soundtrack Pro that are not present at all/difficult to integrate in FCE. And of course, you get all those programs as well (except shake) with tens of GB of effects and templates, as well as pounds of books and training materials.
    That's what prompted me to upgrade to FCS, once it went Universal so I can use it fast on my Mac Pro and MacBook Pro.
    Bottom line - if it wasn't for my need of native HDV and the want to play with Motion, I would have stayed with FCE. It's a very, very full-featured editor for the price.
    And iMovie HD? I still use it today to produce quick edits when I have very limited time or need to tweak.
    It's all about what you need to do.

  • Continuos acquisition video and record video in AVI format

    I'm sorry, you didn't understand what I wanted you to do.  You might have "done the right thing", but I can't be sure.  Your original program (as I understood it) recorded images from the camera for a fixed period of time that you set (so you knew the recording time) -- what I wanted to know for the original camera was (a) what was the recording time and (b) how many frames were taken.
    The second program that you just attached does the opposite -- it records a fixed number of frames (a better way to do this is to use a FOR loop and just wire 900 to N in the upper left hand corner).  If you are going to record a fixed number of frames, then I want to know how much time it takes to record.  You can do this by doing something like what is shown below (with the FOR loop example).
    I realize that this is in the "wrong" version of LabVIEW, but it just involves adding two Tick Count functions to your Camera loop.  If it does say that Delta-t = 15000 (15 seconds), then the main question, "Is the camera recording at 60 FPS", is answered as "Yes".  In any case, we should have enough data to make your code work as you want it to.

  • How can you get your iPhone videos to compress to one video instead of 5 different frames?

    How can you get your iPhone videos to compree to one video instead of different frames

    It sounds like you to 5 separate videos. If you start recording, then stop it, then start it again, you will have 2 videos. Not 1. As for splicing them together, you will need a video editing package for your PC. I don't know if Windows Movie Maker (or whatever they're calling it now) can handle this or not. On a Mac, I'd say just use iMovie.

  • How do you stream a live video to a website

    OK - Again I'm feeling smart enough to be real dumb.
    How do you stream a live video to a website. I use GoDaddy to host a website. I can plug a video camera into my Mac so I can run the video through whatever program works best. I even have a .mac account (now its mobile me I guess) and could use that. I have read several threads but can't really find a starting point. Any help is appreciated.

    How do you display a swf video / videos when you mouse over, It'll be something like a pop up but just that it doesn't open in another windows but within the same window and will be like a pop up roll over image.

    Thank you for the reply.
    I've been putzing around with it and came across the 'SetEventHandler' object and thought I'd try and make that one work.
    Here's what I've got so far.
           <mx:SetEventHandler target="{turnAroundMovie}" name="handleMovieClip" handler="stopMovie()"/>
    And then my fuction.
       <mx:Script>
            <![CDATA[
                private function stopMovie():void{
                    turnAroundMovie.stop(); <!-- here's where I'm getting stuck -->
            ]]>
        </mx:Script>
    My first instinct was the simple stop(), but that didn't fly.  I even added a stopMovie frame in my .swf and tried a gotoAndStop('stopMovie'); but that didn't fly either.  And that's kind of where I'm stuck at.
