Output video camera to tv

On the Curve 8520 how do you output your videos to a tv? 
Thanks,
Bill

You can't direct the output direct to a TV.
You need to save the video file to your Media Card.
Then transfer that file to your PC.
Now, you can watch it on your PC screen.
If you want to watch it on TV, you would need to get your PC connected to a TV, or maybe send the file to David Letterman and see if he will play the file on TV for you.

  • Video camera output (i.Link or Firewire) to connect to my MacBook Air USB input

    Is there a way to for my video camera output (i.Link or Firewire) to connect to my MacBook Air USB input??? Is there any kind of adapter?? I have many movies I want to edit on my Mac

    I don't believe firewire to usb adapters exist.
    Which MacBook Air do you have? If you have the 2011 model with Thunderbolt, then, you are in luck.
    Thunderbolt to firewire adaptors will be available.
    Here is a link for more information.

  • Why Can't Camera Work with Windows Messenger for Mac and give output video?

    I can see from the other end, but my camera won't come on so they can't see me. I hear them and can type in Messenger, but I'd like to have 2-way video, not just receive.
    My camera works as I use it in Photo Booth, so that's not the problem. I can't find a way to setup the video within Messenger. Don't know if it's problem with Messenger or Leopard.
    Whatever it is, it's very annoying that I can't output video.
    Anyone with similar problem or have the answer? I'd be forever grateful!

    Microsoft Messenger doesn't have video support on the Mac version. If you want crossplatform videochat, ask your friends to join AOL Instant Messenger. You can get video chat crossplatform between AOL Instant Messenger for PC & Apple's iChat which supports AOL Instant Messenger screen names. Skype is crossplatform too. An open source program called ophonex supports Microsoft Messenger's Netmeeting protocol for video chat as well. IRC is also crossplatform in videochat though its setup is a bit more complicated with the software known as Ircle for the Mac.

  • How do you hook up a fire wire video camera to the 13 inch aluminum macbook

    I have a 13 inch mac book with only USB, but a video camera that only has a fire wire output jack.
    How can I hook up the camera with fire wire out to the USB in on the new 13 inch MB?
    Is there an accessory I can buy that will do this? Link to the product?
    Thanks!

    There is no option/accessory to do this. You'll need to get a different camera, or use a computer with firewire.

  • Video cameras no longer connecting to Final Cut Express

    I have two video cameras (Sony TRV-25 and Sony HDV-A1U) which are no longer connecting to Final Cut Express through the firewire (4-pin to 800). I get the "unable to initialize" message. What's weird is that they were working fine just last month.
    I'm on a relative new iMac, running 10.6, FCE 4.
    I've double and triple-checked the settings on the cameras (i.e., HDV and iLink output settings), and I've selected the appropriate settings in Easy Setup in FCE (1060i60 for the HDV, NTSC-DV for the TRV).
    I also reset video devices under the View menu.
    Just for kicks, I tried connecting the TRV-25 to my old Mac. I had no problems at all. [The old Mac won't work with the HDV camera, so I didn't bother trying that.]
    There are no other firewire devices connected to the Mac. There is an external drive that I use for capturing the video files that is attached through one of the USB ports.
    I went and bought another firewire cable just to make sure, but got the same results.
    For what it's worth, I also could not get the cameras to be recognized in iMovie.
    Is there anything else I should try?
    Thanks!

    When I looked in System Profiler and click on the firewire line, it just said something about maximum speed 800 MB per second or whatever. Should it actually have the camera listed there? Is that the right way to check?
    The firewire is 4-pin (iLink) to 800, and there are no other devices connected.

  • Can't capture from my cannon video camera to Final Cut or iMovie.

    Hi. I can't capture from my cannon video camera to FInal Cut or iMovie. ANy help would be greatly appreciated. I don't think my iMac is recognizing the camera. I was told I don't need a firewire, that USB would work if I'm just capturing. If I need a firewire what kind (the one I was sold didn't fit). I'm getting an "unable to locate external device message". Not sure of next steps to try. Thanks.

    Forget USB for capturing from tape. USB is only for stills from a Tape Based camera.
    You require a firewire cable.
    The camera connection end will be four pin and the Mac is nine pin to the 800 port.
    Ask for a 9 to 4 pin firewire cable. Sounds like you have the wrong one as they can also be 4 to 4 or 4 to 6 pin!!
    Also you will need the correct Easy Setup in FCE so FCE talk to the camera, exactly which one depends on what type of footage is being sent to FCE from the camera during capture.

  • How do I connect an external video camera to my MacBook Pro.

    Our school has an indoor graduation ceremony and has a live video feed of the proceedings brodcast from the gymnasium to the overflow seating in the auditorium. I want to connect a video camera that has RCA outputs to my MacBook Pro, have the video show on the screen, mirror it to Apple TV in another room of our school and project the picture onto the auditorium's movie screen. I know that I could just hold up an iPad for two hours, but it would be nice to have a better zoom and a smoother pan than a handheld device. Any ideas of what I would need to connect a video camera with RCA outputs to my MacBook Pro?

    How about this?

  • A video camera that looks as good as the EOS 5DIII & the new 70D

    Hi everyone.  I really want to make myself clear on my questions, so I'm going to preface them with a short wall of text.  My apologies.  
    I work for local government and we film political meetings, PSA's, informational videos, documentaries, and local government events (groundbreakings, ribbon cuttings, roundtables, etc).  We are still entirely standard definition.  For the past 7-9 years we've only used Canon XL1's and XL2's, but in the last 2 years we've gone tapeless.  
    For our first foray into this, we first bought  JVC GY-HM150U's (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/821133-REG/JVC_GY_HM150U_GY_HM150U_ProHD_Handheld_Memory.html).  Our main desires here were:  small, universal file type (we use several different editing systems), a "super full auto mode" for our non-advanced users, XLR inputs for microphones, relatively inexpensive, and SD or CF card slots.  Obviously, we nailed all of these features with this camera, but the video quality is lower than we could've expected.  
    At the same time, we purchased a Canon EOS 5D Mark III for taking still pictures during events.  Then, to our ultimate downfall, we started using it for interviews and documentary type shoots.  I'm sure I don't need to tell you all the shock we were in for when it came to the amazing picture quality of this camera.  To take these two cameras on a shoot together is pointless as the JVC's could not even come close to the quality of the Canon's.  However, we cannot use the 5D as a primary camera during these shoots for several reasons (which I'll point out below).  We began following the development of the new EOS 70D with interest when we found out it woud fix some of these features.  Coincidentally, another department of ours purchased one and we were able to use it for a few shoots.  It does seem to have as good a picture quality as the 5D, but it still lacks some features we need.  
    So, in preparing next years budget, I'm looking for actual video cameras with the amazing picture quality of the 5DIII and the 70D, but doens't have the limitations of a still photography camera.  Any help would be appreciated.
    Problems with the 5DIII as a primary video camera:
    no follow focus, only records for 30 minutes segments, only 3.5mm audio input (need XLR)
    Problems with 70D as a primary video camera:
    no headphone output, can't adjust audio input levels while recording, still only records 30 minute segments, 3.5mm audio input
    I'm an Audio / Video technician and video editor.  I do a lot of filming, but do not know much of the science and technology behind the inner working of the cameras.  As an example of our programs, below are two things I filmed with the EOS 5DIII.
    Thank you all in advance for any help you can provide.

    I'm not a video guy.  Canon lists their Cinema EOS video cameras on a separate section than they use for their EOS cameras.
    The cinema cameras and their specs can be found here:  http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/professional/products/professional_cameras/cinema_eos_cameras
    Based on specs, I'm thinking you would probably be well-served by the C100.  It takes the same EOS EF lenses as your 5D III so you can get the look you want.  It records in AVCHD with MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 -- which is fairly common.
    The cards are formatted FAT32 although it says it can record continuously for up to 12 hours.  I'm not sure how it pulls this off because no single file on a FAT32 filesystem which constrains individual files to a maximum of 2GB (that's a filesystem limit... not a camera or operating system limit).   I'm "guessing" that it automatically creates a new file and just keeps streaming video as one file fills up.
    You should probably rent one to make sure it meets your needs.

  • What is best type of 'new' video camera to buy for editing with PE 10?

    I currently own two Sony miniDV camcorders (models DCR-HC28 and HC40) and was doing fine in Premiere Elements and recently upgraded to version 10. I was in the process of using the HC40 cam as a 'pass-through' device to digitize some old VHS tapes, and it worked well for copying from VHS to miniDV tape. Then, I could capture in Premiere Elements and edit, etc. (It would never work to pass all the way through to capture in PE in one step using Firewire).  Now, the HC40 camera has locked up on me halfway through my box of VHS tapes, and is stuck showing the Time/Date screen and the touch screen seems to be disabled.  What to do?
    There do exist plenty of used DCR-HC40 and 52s (which also support pass-through) on Amazon for sale in the $200 range, and that is one option.  I also went to Best Buys this week and looked at all the new Sony video cameras, and they fell into basically two series:  the DCR-SX series, which record in standard definition onto flash memory (SD cards), and the more expensive HDR-CX series, which record in Hi Definition (also on SD cards) but also, I was told, can record in standard definition.  The miniDV camcorders are no more, apparently.  I am not so enamored of HD recording that I would go whole hog for it, as I am happy with the results I have been getting with my miniDV cameras once burned to DVD or converted to MPEG or MP4 for playing on my iPhone, etc. Plus, HD takes up so much more memory and space on the hard drive compared to standard def files.
    I called Sony tech services today to find out that none of the new cameras support the pass-through function for digitizing from old VHS cassettes, so I am looking at buying a VHS-digitizing device as recommended here on the forum such as the ADS Pyro AV Link or Grass Valley ADVC110.  Since I would rather spend that money on a new video camera instead of merely the AV link device which I will have no use for once the tapes are digitized, my question comes back to the cameras. Which of the new cameras will be most ideal for editing in PE10 going forward, or is it best to stick with miniDV for now?  
    Steve G has always seemed to point out that miniDV tape and the ensuing AVI files are the best for PE to work with.  Sony told me today that even the SD cameras such as the DCR-SX65SD ($219) now record onto the SD cards in MPEG2 format, and that AVI is a thing of the past that died with the miniDV tapes.  I assume MPEG2 still comes out as different clips that one assembles on the Timeline in PE10?  One probably could convert the MPEG2 files to AVI, but would that give the same quality as an original AVI file from a miniDV tape? And if MPEG2 is the new standard going forward, do the resulting videos made with PE10 have the same quality as those made from 'native' AVI files?  I will buy a used DCR-HC40 miniDV camera if the end result is better than those to be obtained with the brand new DCR or HDR series cameras now available in stores.  But if the quality is the same, I could perhaps opt for one such as the HDR-CX 130HD ($349) which also records in SD in case some years from now I decide I really DO want to switch to HD formats.
    Any advice on choice/use of the newer cameras and their default formats such as MPEG2 is welcome, in relation to PE10 editing and output capabilities.
    Thanks very much,   paultool3

    Dear JM and Steve,
    Thanks much for your replies.  I plan to get my DCR-HC40 miniDV camera fixed so I can use it for pass-through digitizing from VHS tapes.  I also recently bought one of the Dazzle Video Creator Platinum capture units ($84 at Best Buys) just to try it, and actually got pretty good results in digitizing a VHS-C tape using a VHS-C to VHS adapter unit to play it in our VCR, and then using the Pinnacle Studio HD (version 15) that came with the Dazzle unit to import and digitize through the Dazzle unit.
    The Dazzle unit would not show up in Premiere Elements 10 as an option to capture from, but did in Pinnacle Studio 15.   I used our Sony VAIO with i7 processor and Pinnacle captured the one hour, twenty-five minute- long VHS-C tape to a single 18GB .AVI  clip which I then was able to bring into Premiere Elements 10 and use for output in various formats. 
    When using a less powerful laptop initially, the digitizing failed, with 319 dropped frames in the first 5 minutes.. So it takes a more powerful computer to work with a capture unit like Dazzle, apparently.
    I will eventually be shopping around for a new,  AVCHD format video camera as well based on your recommendations, but the current group of Sonys in this category, such as the HDR-CX130HD ($349) which record video onto SD cards, are getting bad reviews from CNET, claiming they have poor quality HD and other issues.  So for the forseeable future I will be sticking with miniDV using my Sony DCR-HC28 and HC40 camcorders.

  • Out of range output video size ?

    Hello,
    I would like to use a camera which has a large output size, more than 1920x1080.
    When I select the camera, I've a message :
    Out of range output video size
    One or more output video width and height are out of range. Please provide video size in range 80x60 to 1920x1080.
    Is it a limitation of FMLE or FMS ? (I think it's FMLE because the message appears even if the "save to file" is the only publishing format selected)
    Is there a way to edit a confugration file to remove this limit ?
    Best regards,

    why don't you change that background to what you want in desktop system preferences when the second monitor is connected? different monitors have different desktop backgrounds and they remember the settings from the last time they were connected.

  • Can't output video to Firewire via Canopus..

    Hi all,
    All of a sudden today, I am not able to output video via Firewire to my Canopus ADVC-110 with Final Cut Pro 6. I do however have video output when using programs like Logic, so the Canopus appears to be working fine. I checked the Audio/Video settings in FCP and have Firewire as Video playback, but no output is going to my monitor. What settings do I need to be looking at, in FCP. It's clearly something I did, and would like to correct it, so I can monitor video again. Please advise.
    Also...one other note, I can't seem to playback video through Firewire in Soundtrack Pro as well. But Logic Pro plays vide through the firewire device just fine. Anyone have any insite on this? Thanx in advance....

    Make sure the light is in the DV mode...press the big button a couple times to make sure. Also make sure you didn't switch to PAL mode from NTSC or something. AND...
    If for some reason you can't view your timeline on your external monitor, there are a few things to try:
    1) Make sure that the camera/deck is connected and powered on BEFORE you open FCP.
    2) In the Final Cut Pro menu select AUDIO/VIDEO Preferences and make sure your signal is being sent out thru Firewire DV.
    3) Go to the menu and select VIEW>EXTERNAL>ALL FRAMES.
    4) Click in the % box above the image and select FIT TO WINDOW.
    5) Go to VIEW->refresh A/V devices
    6) Make sure the Log & Capture window is closed
    If you want it to play in both the canvas and the external monitor you need to go to the FINAL CUT PRO menu and select AUDIO/VIDIO settings and make sure MIRROR ON DESKTOP is selected under the PLAYBACK OUTPUT section

  • How to output video to TV or Home Theatre? (iphone)

    How to output video to TV or Home Theatre? (iphone)

    I recently bought a AV projector and was asked by a smirky but envious friend the same question, after watching me hook up my powerbook, having already purchased an ipod video 30gig with the UNIVERSAL DOCK with remote control and ifrared remote control I remembered reading about it also working with the iphone, so it having a s-video output with a audio mini output port, I plugged the iphone into it and it came up with a little message saying this is not a iphone compatible device, and asked me to turn on airport, I ignored the request and it just clicked over to the itunes section, I picked a video and presto instant big screen projection TV off the iphone, How IMPRESSIVE! then I went to utube launched a utube video and wow how cool it also played seamlessly, although it pays to let the Youtube videos buffer for a minute to get a better play off the EDGE net work verse the Wi-Fi, I plan on having lots of out door theatre shows this summer with this very compact multi-media package, What a hoot! Get the universal dock no glitches!

  • Video Transfer from analog video camera

    New Mac user here. Anyone know how to transfer video from a video camera(that has 8mm tapes/ with RCA output jacks) to the MacBook. I know I need some type of video capture system or software. I want to ultimately put the 8mm video tapes to DVD'S. I do have a DVD Burner. I think my info should be listed, but if not, here it is. Mac. OS X10.4.8, 2USB Ports, 1 Fire Wire Port. iMovie, iDVD, and other essential programs came with the computer. Thanks for any help.
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   2 USB Ports, 1 Fire Wire Port

    What you need is a piece of hardware to convert the analog signal to a digital signal that your computer and its software can work with.
    There are some available here:

    There are probably some others but this is the ony brand I can think of off hand.

  • Importing video from 8mm video camera to iMac

    Hi. I guess this topic may have been aired before but I would be very grateful for some help. I want to import video to iMovie on my iMac from my old 8mm Panasonic video camera. iMovie help section covers this as follows
    "To convert video in 8 mm, Hi-8, VHS, or SVHS format for use in iMovie HD, you need a special converter with standard S-Video and RCA input/output ports for video and audio, and a FireWire (IEEE 1394) input/output port."
    So do I just need a cable to connect camera and Mac, or is there some other bit of conversion kit I need? If just a cable any ideas where I can get one from (preferably UK)? I have not had any luck with this so far. Thanks for any ideas

    I finally tried importing the 8mm tapes from my Sony TRV-330 into iMovie HD and it worked. Really seems strange to me why Apple would not make iMovie '08 backwards compatible with analog 8mm tapes imported using a digital camcorder.
    I doubt that Apple made the program less compatible with your camcorder on purpose. More like, in their effort to add compatibility with AVCHD, HDD, and DVD camcorders, something was changed which affects you and a number of other users. Given time, I expect they will locate the problem and fix it. The quest is, who long will it take. Be sure to post a feedback regarding your problem. They people who do this, the more likely they will take note and find a solution to this inconsistency between iMovie HD and iMovie '08.
    I'm wondering if I can skip the second step if the video is already on my hard drive, or does it need to be saved in iMovie HD format for iMovie '08 to be able to import the video at all?
    Well, I probably would have gone about it somewhat differently. If you don't plan to do any editing in iMovie HD, I would probably have tried VIDI (free) first. It is a dedicated DV "capture" utility of about the same vintage as your camcorder. It should allow you to import/store your DV files where you want in "plain sight" of the Finder rather than in iMovie HD's project package. It still imports in real time so no savings here.
    Then you would have the option of using them in any editor or even making preliminary cuts of your files in either QT Pro, MPEG Streamclip, or any similar utility. The idea here is to discard everything you know you won't want and save time when it comes to generating "thumbnails" (which sometimes seems to take forever) in iMovie '08 when you actually move or copy the files into iMovie '08 which should take almost no time at all if the source files are on the same drive as your events folder and you use the "Move" rather than "Copy" option. (I.e., a "Move" action only requires updating the VTOC as to the files physical location via a changed path as opposed to a "Copy" which actually has to re-write the data to your hard drive. This can save a fair amount of time if done right. Unfortunately, there is no way to get around "thumbnail" generation.
    Another possible tip would be to import a series of moderately sized files to iMovie '08 rather than a single, large one. This can save time in the event that an associated thumbnail file becomes corrupted and you have to force iMovie '08 to regenerate them at some later time. (I.e this seems to be a common problem for some users, but I have only experienced it once, myself, thankfully. ("Knock on wood.")
    In any event, that is about all I can think of for now. Good Luck.
