Photo Booth Audio and Logic

I was messing around with Photo Booth today while at the computer learning some songs on my bass and just started recording video in photo booth. On playback the audio is on the left only. I'm recording thru the instrument input of a Apogee duet firewire I/O it has two inst inputs 1 is going left 2 is going right. I see there are no audio preferences in photo booth to get the audio to play center being mono.Anyone recording video and audio in photo booth thru a external device have this issue? I thought by importing into Logic I could center it.
When importing the photo booth movie into Logic the audio will play center by making it a mono track.Exporting out of Logic as a stereo still results in a hotter left side. I guess if I were recording thru the Mac inputs it would playback center.

In Photo Booth, right-click on the video and either Export or Reveal in Finder. Either way, then open and play it with QuickTime. Is audio and video still out of sync?

Photo Booth Audio and Video not in sync!

I am a YouTube musician. When I go to record I find it easiest to use the video feature in Photo Booth. However, ever since I upgraded to Mountain Lion my audio and video in my videos has been off of one another. They start off together but by the end of the video the audio is ahead of the video. When I went to try and see where it messes up I found that the video jumps frames creating almost a transition effect. I don't know how to fix this and would really like your help!

Do you have fix for Photo Booth Audio and Video are not syncing properly, Do you have fix for Photo Booth Audio and Video are not syncing properly

My audio and video are not syncing properly. There is a lag from the audio to the video. Does anyone have a permanent fix for Photo Booth where the Audio and Video are not syncing properly?

Photo Booth Audio and Video are out of sync?

Hi. So there is this glitch that when I take videos on Photo Booth the audio and video are out of sync. This started after I upgraded to Mountain Lion, and since I use Photo Booth a lot, I really do care. Is there anyway that I can fix this until Apple fixes this bug? Thanks.
Extra Info: The first video I took was not out of sync, but after that they got more and more out of sync.

I've read all the forums. It's a big problem for most Photobooth users, Apple acknowledges it, but does not yet have a fix.
The best solution I have come up with is to dump Photobooth (I know - it was a great program, wasn't it? But so was Hypercard) and use Quicktime to make videos. You'll have to spend a little more work savings or exporting, but at least Quicktime is free.
Just open Quicktime Player and under the File menu you'll see "Record New Movie."
The downward slide continues...

Photo Booth - audio and video not syncing

I was making some videos on Photo Booth and the audio doesn't start playing until 5 seconds after the video starts! Do you know if there is any way to fix this or is it a software issue? I have tried resetting the computer but it didn't help.
Thanks for your help!

Photo Booth audio and video out of sync

Hi everyone.
I tried recording a video three times today on Photobooth, and every time, the audio and video are out of sync. Does anyone have any solutions as to how I can fix this? Its ever since I downloaded Mountain Lion.
Thankyou.

HI, Jay Rhymes,
I'm having the same problem and took your advice.
Strangely, the first video I recorded in Photobooth after I changed the settings did sync audio and video.
But then I deleted that test and tried another, and it was a little off.
I deleted that test and tried a third time, and it was way off.
So if I close Photobooth and open it, the first video will apparently sync fine but subsequent ones won't.
Anyone else having this strange difficulty?

Photo Booth: Audio and Video not syncing in the same time frames, really annoying

That's the problem.

Same problem here.
1. Reset ACLs
2. reset PRam reset SMC
3. repaired permissions
4. repaired disk
No issues found.
Reinstalled Mountain Lion....
issue is persisting.
FML
Machine seems to be running fine otherwise. Just happened to notice it when I tried to reord a short video of some guitar. Way out of sync. Horrid.
I made a new user account and the issue is continuing.
The only thing I haven't done is is completely wiped the drive and started fresh. Such a pain in the a## to do this. IDK. Definitely wasnt happening on snow leopard.

Duet makes noise after switching between finder audio and Logic

Hi
My Duet makes noise after switching between "finder audio" and "Logic", In other words i would play a mp3 in the finder and when returning to Logic all my audio sounds like the "lo-fi" RTAS free plug digidesign gives away now.
This is happening on a White *iMac 24"*

Processor Speed: 2.33 GHz

Boot ROM Version: IM61.0093.B07

Does this happen every single time? The same thing happens to me every once in a while. I just close Logic and Maestro and unplug the Duet. Then, in this order, plug in the Duet, wait for it to click, load Maestro, load Logic. Works every time.
Edit: It does only seem to happen when I switch from Logic and the audio output from the Duet to internal and then come back quickly. I don't think it's an issue with the Duet hardware itself.

Photo booth, imovie and iphoto problem

photo booth, imovie and iphoto are not working in my macbook pro. when i try to open one of these apps a question mark appears and i can not open any of them.

Did you move any of those applications? A question mark in the Dock means that the original application cannot be found. You've either moved or deleted them. Try to do a Spotlight search for each to see if you can find them.

Photo Booth Audio Problem

Hi all,
am currently running lion 10.7.5
i have an assignment to submit with video and audio recording.
It has always worked fine recording video and audio but this time photo booth just stopped working.
Usually i have logic pro and photo booth running at the same time, photo booth for the video, logic to record the audio, then i put them together later.
However now photo booth is unable to record videos.
Taking photos is still possible, the green light is still there.
But clicking record video the timer will stay put at 00:00:00
After i stopped the recording it's a black video of 0 seconds.
I'm using a external audio interface.
I would like to mention again that it has always worked fine.
i checked the audio settings, the audio midi settings, all are fine.
when i switched audio input and output to internal mic and default output,
recording videos worked again.
however my logic is unable to produce any output at all.
i cannot run these two simultaneously anymore.
even if logic input and output is set to my audio interface and photo booth set to default output, it still doesn't work.

I even restarted the laptop many times.
I reset the SMC and the PRAM but to no avail.
I cleared photobooth's plist and it still does not work.
i'm sure it's not my external audio interface problem as there was no driver update prior to this problem

Photo Booth jams and won't quit

Here is the issue:
At first, when running a photo kiosk type application such as Photo Booth or a similar 3rd party app (I also have had FunnyPhotographer installed, which works under Rosetta), it all seems to work fine.
But after a period of time working with other apps, and leaving the Photo Booth running in the background, the it will show a still image only, no longer displaying live information from the webcam. Sometimes it will work ok for quite a long time before this occurs. On other occasions I only launched another app and the display immediately froze up on the photo kiosk program. Eventually it will happen.
Once the Photo Booth displays a frozen image you can still take a snapshot of the image that currently frozen in the display window, but that is all. Live display has ceased, although the green webcam light still shines beside the inbuilt iSight camera.
When you command the app to quit, the beach ball will start rolling, and the app completely freezes.
When you force quit, the app still refuses to quit from the dock and continues to show that it is not responding when you Control-Click on it's Dock icon. This situation occurs regardless of whether you select Force Quit by Control-Clicking on the Dock icon, use Force Quit from the Apple Menu, use Activity Monitor, or even use a Terminal command to kill the process.
When you use Activity Monitor or Terminal, it will manage to remove the process from the processes list, but it will require Force Quitting twice in order to achieve this.
Despite the process no longer showing up in the process list after Force Quitting twice, it still remains locked on the Dock showing "Application Not Responding", and if you close and re-open the Force Quit window from the Apple menu Photo Booth will still be listed there.
Using Force Quit from Activity Monitor, or killing the process via the Terminal does make the green light that indicates that iSight is in use, go out.
Any attempt to re-launch thPhoto Booth in the Finder will give Error -600.
The only ways to get the frozen app back are to logout, or restart the computer (which will require two Force Quit confirmations if you haven't done this already).
Things that have already been done during attempts to resolve this issue:
• Repair disc permissions
• Parameter-RAM zap
• PMU reset
• Complete erase and re-install of Mac OS X, and full Software Update, back to version 10.4.8
• Removal of any System changing 3rd part apps (including: Boot Camp iGlasses, Snapz Pro X (unregistered running in Demo mode), FunnyPhotographer, iClock, CopyPaste X). None of these has had any impact on the issue, so I have reinstalled them since. In any case, this problem has been in existence ever since I have had the computer, long before any non-Apple applications of any kind were installed.
In the face of the above information, AppleCare suggested that this is likely to be a hardware issue, and issued me a case number. The repairers replaced the iSight webcam and logic board, but the problem persists.
Have I found a bug here?
Anyone think they have a solution? What are people's
thoughts on this?

Hi Paul,
Some feedback is easier than others.
For instance iChat has it's own page http://www.apple.com/feedback/ichat.html
Photo Booth is one of those few Apple apps that does not have a Feedback page of that sort.
I would ask in Discussions Feedback stating how the problem occurred and how to repeat it. Some one there may be able to point to a better place for a specific feedback.

Try using iMovie (built in, /Applications). It is meant for recording videos with audio.
Good luck!

Photo booth - audio video out of sync problem

Hi
I'm using Mountain Lion 10.8.1 and Photo Booth 5.0
Photo Booth has severe audio video syncing problems!! When I record a video, the audio is out of sync with the video.
I managed to get it to "sort of" work: every time I want to record a video, I restart the program. I also wait a few seconds to say something after I started to record. Movies longer than a couple of minutes are always out of sync, even when I restart the program....
Untill now I haven't been able to find a sollution for this problem. I searched the web and more people are having these difficulties and don't know how to fix it either....
Maybe someone here knows the answer to fix this problem?
I hope apple will fix this problem in their next update???
Nice regards!

Hi
I found the solution for the audio / video sync problem in Photo Booth!!!!!
Go to your Launchpad and open audio/midi configuration. Make sure that your input and output has the same settings. I changed the input and output to 2 channel 16-bit 44100,0 hz. And this did the trick for me!!
Now I can record as many video's after each other without restarting the program and they are all synced one hundred procent!!!!
PROBLEM SOLVED ;-)

Welcome to Discussions, Stanley Chung
Sorry you are still having problems even after trying the good suggestions from Ralph and Boomer.
I did not see specifically from your posts that your iSight worked before upgrading to Snow Leopard, but I am inferring from your topic's title that it did. If your iMac came with Snow Leopard installed, please post and tell us whether you erased the disk and reinstalled all your iMac's software before you started using it. If you upgraded your iMac to Snow Leopard, consider the following.
(1) Until you get iSight working, do all your testing while no peripherals other than keyboard/mouse are attached to your iMac. To eliminate all possibility of any conflict external to your Mac, be sure you also disconnect any wireless devices (iPod, printer, etc) connected to your system.
(2) If you still have problems with all you have tried, it seems to me that you must have a software issue. You might try uninstalling Skype and VMWare and testing again to see if those installations are causing a conflict.
(3) Check the support sites for all of your third party software to be sure there are no known Snow Leopard issues and that you are using the latest compatible versions.
(4) If the problem still exists and you have not already tried this, reinstall Snow Leopard, repairing permissions immediately before and after the reinstall.
(5) If your problem remains and System Profiler still shows your inbuilt iSight as a USB device, I suggest you backup all important files, erase your disk, reinstall all Apple software, and test to see if iSight works properly. Once it does, you can install any necessary peripherals and third-party apps one-at-a-time, testing after each addition to see if one of them is causing problems.

Photo booth freezes and closes

Every time i open photo booth it just freezes, it doesn't do nothing for 3-4 seconds. Then it force quits.
Is there any way to fix it? :/
The camera is responsive because it works with Skype and iChat.

Repair permissions & restart. If that does not work, then I suggest that you cross-post over in the iSight Forums where the Photo Booth users hang out.
Which OS version do you have? Your first post states 10.5.4 but, your second post shows 10.5.1!
