Is it possible to gain control of a webcam on PC in a different location?

I have a piece of equipment that can be controlled remotely by people in a different location. They would like to view the equipment via webcam (that I already have and it has pan, tilt and zoom controls), is it possible to view and control the webcam using labview?

Hi pardeep,
create a small server on the PC with the webcam. The server distributes the webcam image to any client requesting the image. It also accepts commands to control the webcam...
Best regards,

How do I gain control....

How do I gain control of my F14 and F15 keys on the keyboarde of my G5? Right now they are taken up by brightness and dimming controls that are redundant since I have those on the monitor itself (Apple 23) and badly need those to assign functions in some of my apps. Can't seem to find a spot in the System Preferences where I can disable these.

There is no way. I asked this question months ago and got no answers.
The only thing that came close was an app called Mac Pilot that is supposed to make it possible to change lots of hidden settings. I sent them an email and they said it could do it but I never got around to trying it.
I did some Google searching and someone had a way to do it with some complex Terminal operation but I didn't want to deal with it.
I have Quickeys set up to perform all kinds of things on my Mac and have long ago run out of easy keystrokes and would like those free as well.

Would like to see an automatic gain control on

When using the EQ on the Zen Touch (and other Creative Labs players) it is possible to raise the volume of a given frequency upto +2db, however when one does this, the additional 2db may cause the audio to clip. Normally equalizers have an AGC (automatic gain control) or master volume control that would drop the volume by the same amount that the EQ had raised it by thus preventing clipping. For example, if you raise the volume of the 00hz frequency by +2db to increase the bass, the AGC would drop the preamp volume -2db to prevent clipping in the 00hz frequency. I would like to see Creative add this feature so that a user does not have to drop the gain of their MP3 files by -2db before uploading them inorder to ensure that there will be no clipping when using the EQ.Message Edited by mfowler on 03-08-2005 07:29 AM

If this was not the correct place, could you point me in the right direction. I am not a person to build such an app, but I don't know where one could pose the question..
Not sure where to post this other than in this topic hoping that developers might be looking here.
Now that Dataviz discontinued MacLink Deluxe, there are no good apps to convert old WriteNow (one of the early Mac word processers) into a modern format. Sure MS office "kind of" works, but I would defenitely buy an app that only converted (similar to MacLink) old WriteNow 3 and 4 documents into either rtf or doc formats that can be used today.
Sorry if this is not the place to post such a thing.
MacLink was good, but had way to many complicated, bloated options. It would be nice just to have a simple app to convert this old format. Maybe alternative apps of this kind could then be purchased to convert more of the file formats that MacLink converted. I think you would sell more of an app that just converted one older file format, however.

Disable On-clip Gain Control

How do I disable the on-clip gain control for SELECTIONS?
Preferences only allows it to be toggled for NON-selection.
My work flow in editing a recorded lecture in Audition 2.0 was to left-click and drag a selection and with the button still down, hit the space bar to play from the beginning of the selection. This made life so easy in finding the correct starting word for a selection to be deleted. However, this feature is effectively removed in 3.0 because the selection cannot be played while the LMB is down. It seems to be because the on-clip gain control cannot be drawn/displayed and thus allow playback of the selection until the button is released. This defeats the purpose of being able to drag the selection to a new waveform modulation and play to see if it is the right word to include or exclude from the selection. That is, in 2.0 the selection was DYNAMIC during playback (I could change it WHILE it was being played). In 3.0 selections can't be played while continuing to adjust the selection in ONE mouse-drag action. Boo. Hiss.
So, I'm assuming that IF the on-clip gain can be totally disabled, then my habitualized 2.0 dynamic selection workflow would be applicable in 3.0. Since this doesn't appear to be an option in the prefs, is there an external hack/edit of some config file to do so?
Thanks.

Thanks. I figured as much, but you never know... maybe Adobe reads these forums and there's an actual human being that cares enough to add this to an update patch.
[edit]
Actually, I should have done a better search. A new one found this... http://forums.adobe.com/message/1983533#1983533 which "solves" the issue of the control being displayed in a selection, BUT, even when this View option is unchecked, the selection still will not play (via space bar) when the LMB is down, so it's not the refreshing/display of the on-clip gain control that's the problem, it must be an internal code change. DOUBLE BUGGER!
OK... time to add another request in the Features forum to get them to "bring back" the "old" way.

Navigation of iPhoto and iTunes not possible by Remote Control

Navigation of iPhoto and iTunes not possible by Remote Control after upgrading from Leo to Mountain Lion. I miss this functionality because it was nice to see may photoes directly on the iMac-Screen as well to hear the Music on my Radio. No chance to implement this function again by a newer upgrade?

Answer to captfred and mende1:
I am using already AppleTV, but only for streaming into a different room on to my TV - it is great!
But I like to hear all my iTunes Music by LineOut Cable from iMac to my Stereo Device.
I can activate music titles in iTunes by Apple Remote, but only for jumping from Title to Title and not back to Albums or Playlists etc.

Audio-Echo Cancellation/Gain Control

I've recently downloaded skype to make phone calls. Unfortunately, the people i'm calling are complaining that there is an echo on their end of the call. Skype suggests changing the audio settings in preferences and checking off the boxes for echo cancellation and gain control. When i've gone into preferences, i do not have the option of echo cancellation/gain control. Anyone know how to access these options or any other way to reduce echo in using audio for phone calls?
thanks

More complete code:
netConnection = new NetConnection();
netConnection.connect("rtmp://whatever.com/phone");
incomingNetStream = new NetStream(netConnection);
incomingNetStream.client = this;
incomingNetStream.bufferTime = 0.2;
incomingNetStream.play("play");
incomingNetStream.receiveAudio(true);
outgoingNetStream = new NetStream(netConnection);
outgoingNetStream.bufferTime = 0;
mic = Microphone.getEnhancedMicrophone();
mic.codex = SoundCodec.SPEEX;
mic.framesPerPacket = 1;
mic.setSilenceLevel(0);
var options:MicrophoneEnhancedOptions = new MicrophoneEnhancedOptions;
options.echoPath = 256;
options.nonLinearProcessing = true;
mic.enhancedOptions = options;
outgoingNetStream.attachAudio(mic);
outgoingNetStream.publish("publish", "live");

Why can't I alter the Gain control in the voiceover tool?

Whether I use my USB mic or normal mic plugged into Line In, I cannot increase the value of the Gain control slider.
Any ideas?

The problem is solved!
After reading how someone else lost this functionality after upgrading to ML, I booted into Snow Leopard (10.6.8) which I have installed on a Firewire hard drive, launched FCP X 10.0.7 and surprise, surprise . . . .
. . . . the Input Device Gain slider was working perfectly.
If anyone else using Mountain Lion 10.8.2 could check this out and let me know their results, I would be most obliged.
P.S. Some eagle-eyed reader may notice that my original screenshot showed the Record Audio tool set to "Built-in Input" and this screenshot shows the "Built-in Microphone" selected.
You can forget about that as I tested every setting several times in both ML and SL and the results were the same. It is just unfortunate that the screenshots show different settings.

Is it possible to create controls dynamically.

Hai,
Is it possible to create control or arrays dynamically in LabVIEW.That means i want to create controls at run time depending on the dynamic data.
Please help me in this regard.

CIPC Automatic Gain Control

I am us CIPC 7.0. We are trying to use it in conjunction with Cisco Unified Video Advantage. Whe have purchased a Logitech USB Conference phone type device. FOr some reason while trying to tweek our volume controls, the Automatic Gain Control (AGC) of CIPC takes over the mic volume and rachets it up real high. By the software doing this, it is creating Aucustical Echo. I read about a bug in an older version of CIPC where you could kill AGC. Is there a way to do if for 7.0 versions and above?
Please help me out!

Nope - doesn't work. Clipped samples show up in "Amplitude Statistics" but when I go to the Diag panel - select "DeClipper" and "Scan" - NO problems are detected.

The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information. Outcome: Unknown Error

Received this error (The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information.) recently on a workflow that was
working fine and no changes were made to the workflow.
I have tried a few suggestions, i.e. adding a pause before any ‘Update’ action (which didn’t help because the workflow past this action without incident); checked the data type being written
to the fields (the correct data types are being written); and we even checked the list schema to ensure the list names and the internal names are aligned (they
are), but we still cannot figure out why the workflow is still throwing this error.
We located the area within the workflow step where it is failing and we inserted a logging action to determine if the workflow would execute the logging action but it did not, but wrote the same error message.
The workflow is a Reusable Approval workflow designed in SharePoint Designer 2010 and attached to a content type.
The form associated with the list was modified in InfoPath 2010.
Approvers would provide their approval in the InfoPath form which is then read by the workflow.
Side note - items created after the workflow throws this Unknown Error some seem to be working fine.
We have deleted the item in question and re-added it with no effect.
Based on what we were able to determine there don’t seem to be any consistency with how this issue is behaving.
Any suggestions on how to further investigate this issue in order to find the root cause would be greatly appreciated?
Cheers

Hi,
I understand that the reusable workflow doesn’t work properly now. Have you tried to remove the Update list item action to see whether the workflow can run without issue?
If the workflow runs perfectly when the Update list item action is removed, then you need to check whether there are errors in the update action. Check whether the values have been changed.
Thanks,

Our SPF 2010 server is relatively small to many setups I am sure. The list with the issue only has 4456 items and there are a few associated lists, eg lookups, Tasks, etc see below for count.
Site Lists
Engagements = 4456 (Errors on this list, primary list for activity)
Tasks = 7711 (All workflow tasks from all site lists)
Clients = 4396 (Lookup from Engagements, Tslips, etc)
Workflow History = 584930 (I periodically run a cleanup on this and try to keep it under 400k)
Tslips = 3522 (Engagements list can create items here, but overall not much interaction between lists)
A few other lists that are used by workflows to lookup associations that are fairly static and under 50 items, eg "Parters Admin" used to lookup a partners executive admin to assign a task.

Is it possible to play my guitar and have the sound changed to different instrument like a sax? Like an emulator.

Is it possible to play my guitar and have the sound changed to different instrument like a sax? Have my Mac act as an emulator. I'm a guitar player, not a sax player, but I want a sax solo in my song.

You'd need a midi guitar for that. GarageBand does not create midi from audio. Use a different application, like Finale to create a midi file from your Guitar audio file.
Or play the sax track using a midi keyboard or simply GarageBand's musical typing. You can use the track editor to add expression and articulation afterwards.
