QT Pro audio anomoly w ADVC-100

iMac can capture a DVR Sound and Video from recorded DVD via ADVC-100.
Sound and Video come in fine with FCE & iMovie.
Can't seem to get sound to come in {or out} with QT Pro.
Preferences are set to ADVC-100 and iMic USB {just as they are for the applications that work}.
I'm using the same disk in all attempts.
Am I missing a CODEC or or a setting or something? Tried Good Better and Device Native....hmmm

No. QuickTime Pro can't crop video.
MPEG Streamclip (free) can.

AUDIO SAMPLES FROM IOMEGA 100 ZIP DRIVE TO MAC BOOK PRO / LOGIC?

Posted: Fri, Feb 15 2013, 1:27pm Post subject: AUDIO SAMPLES FROM ZIP 100 TO MACBOOK PRO / LOGIC?
HI THERE
I HAVE LOADS OF OLD AUDIO SAMPLES ON ZIP DISKS ( ZIP 100 using akai cd3000 sampler ) THAT I WOULD LIKE TO TRANSFER TO MY MAC BOOK PRO FOR LOGIC EX24.
IS IT A SIMPLE CASE OF A 'SCSI TO USB LEAD' , WILL MY MAC BOOK PICK IT UP FROM THERE OR DO I NEED SOFTWARE OR DRIVERS FOR MY MAC TO BE ABLE TO SEE THEM?
IS IT EVEN POSSIBLE AT ALL?
THANKS

Hi guys
Sorry for the delay in coming back. I bought a zip drive pretty cheaply then and it has only just turned up. However when I put my old ZIP disks in, it seems like the ZIP drive reads them at least but the MACBOOK comes up with the following message...
'The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer'
Does this pretty much mean a no go then? Or can I put the samples from my AKAI sampler back through the old ZIP drive, reformat some new disks in a certain way on that drive so that my MAC can read them?
All its for really is mainly to take old tracks that used these samples and getting them set up in my mac. Also there was some good bits and pieces there anyway and would like to keep using those samples for newer projects. I could of coourse resample them from the AKAI straight to the MAC but would be not as practical and would take alot longer. The 13'' macbook pros input is not digital, only its output.
thanks

ADVC-100 problems

I'm off from work for a few weeks. I've been wanting to transfer old vhs tapes to DVD for a long time. Maybe about 3 years or so, I purchased the ADVC-100 to convert analog to digital. Worked like a charm. I also purchased an VHS to DVD direct copy machine. That worked also.
Time passes and I've since upgrded to a the latest macbook pro. I decided to use it with FCE and do the good dead.
#1 - the CD player on the VHS/DVD is kaput. Major not happy, hardly used it and it just isn't doing anything. But that's ok, I don't mind the route of digitizing video to my 16TB NAS for manipulation and such with FCE
#2- My FCE won't recognize the ADVC-100. So frustrating
I verified under system stuff that the firewire is seeing the FW connection, which it is. I can directly plug the VHS into another tuner and play on the TV. So that takes some frustration away since we can at least watch them. But I would like to start a long process of digitizing them, clipping together themes, cute moments, all that stuff.
For whatever reason, I cannot get my G5 or Macbook pro to play/work with the ADVC-100. I can go to preferences/sounds and see that there are internal sounds being registered. Can't get them to play in anyway through either computer, but they are registered at the input. Sound works great on a TV
I've gone to the easy set up and drived DV=NTSC firewire basic, DV-NTSC DV converter, and the DV-NTSC. No luck. Some will actually show the buttons ont he capture screen but there are nothing but colored lines (stationary) When the buttons appear, a message appears below them that says "VTR OK". I've tried to capture clips anyway, but nothing occurs.
I recall having some of these problems in the past. I kept trying and trying and somehwre it would just magically work. No such luck anymore.
My switch settings on the ADVC-100 are all set to off position. I have tried various different switch positions as I read many different articles all over the internet.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions? For whatever reason, both the new and old mac can detect it is there, can show the internal "in" sound channel registring the sound, but can't play the sound and I cannot get video to show in any configuration.
Thanks,
Robert

Thank you for your input and questions.
I changed VCR's just to make sure that wasn't a factor as the original one was acting a bit strange. This second VCR is a basic play only VCR. Tape in, verify it is running on the TV fine. Then move it over to the computer area. Use the red/white/yellow (composite or RCA jack?) connectors out from the VCR. Only contains out, no input on the VCR
Then connect the color coding to the input of the ADVC-100 on the front panel marked input.
The back panel has the outputs. I used the red/white only and have them plugged into a stereo adapter so that they can be plugged into the back of the powermac G5 audio input.
I am using a firewire 400 connecting from the back of the ADVC-100 to the back of the G5
Dip switches on the bottom of the ADVC-100 are set to NTSC, 7.5 IRE, Audio "locked", Audio 48khz 16bits, power on input mode "analog", and input selector mode: manual.
NOTE: I have carefully turned off the ADVC-100 and tried every possible combination of switch settings. I followed the instructions initially, which are quite simple, but when that didn't work, I decided "what the heck, try 'em all," so I did. No change.
I've tried quicktime, iMovie, and FCE. They all display a similar pattern.
iMovie: will show the pop-up screen for importing and shows it is seeing the advc-100 in the bottom left corner of the screen. Screen remains blue despite what I do.
FCE: set to DV-NTSC under easy settings, shut down program restarted and made a new project (did this multiple times). Under capture, screen pops up as usual. In the center bottom, shows "VTR OK" It shows colored bars. Decided on occasions to go ahead and put "now" and it indicates "waiting for timecode. Device must be in VTR mode when Device Control is enabled (press 'esc' to abort)
Quicktime pops open a window that remains blue and indicates it is ready to record. Nothing happens though.
I used to use this set up, maybe 5 years ago to transfer VHS or HI-8 mm tapes to the computer. I don't recall it being such a pain. This is the same computer, same ADVC-100 and so forth.
ok, did I forget anything?
Any suggestions?
I do appreciate your help.

ADVC 100 not capturing in Tiger-new

Hi
Bob hope you're monitoring. Did a search prior to posting but removing and reinstalling as per instructions did not change things. I'm trying to capture audio only through my ADVC 100. Settting my settings to audio only and device control to (non controllable device) and I get FCP was unable to capture upon hitting the esc key. When I switch to device control (Firewire NTSC) the window clears upon the ESC key but nothing appears in the browser. In the past I remember that my Sony DV-1? required a video signal playing even though there was audio only captured so I tried hooking up the analog video signal out from my DV cam to the video in on the ADVC. Still no luck. Any ideas?

AFAIK, You probably need a VIDEO signal when capturing DV thru FW. DV has the audio muxed with the video in its raw form. Have you tried feeding any video signal thru? Just the blue screen of an untuned VCR might be enough to get you going...

CS4 crashes when capturing via ADVC-100

I have been successfully using CS4 to capture from my Canon HV20 camcorder.
Today I tried to capture old VHS video using a Canopus ADVC-100 analog to DV converter. This has always worked perfectly when I was using Premiere Pro 1.5.
With the ADVC-100 connected, as soon as I hit F5 to open the capture window, CS4 crashes with a blue screen and IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. I have tried capturing several times with the same result.
Is this a known bug and is there a workaround available.

wondering why you use the canopus any way. From the canon web site:
Analog Digital Image Converter: This function lets you feed the analog signal from your TV, VCR or analog camcorder to your HV20 to convert to digital for recording on DV tape. The HV20 can also be used as a signal converter by connecting it between an analog device and another digital device.
In other words, ditch the canopus.

Should iMovie11 be able to import VCR tapes using Canopus ADVC-100

I think the answer is yes. However, in my case there seems to be a hiccup. The Canopus screen opens okay and import commences, as confirmed by the red light in the timer recorder and the time running up. Unfortunately, importing stops at 2 seconds with manual input selected and 1 minute with automatic selected. From the saved events, the manually imported DV file will not play because of its insufficient length and the automatically imported one plays back for the 1 minute. I have checked the settings and connections and all are okay but something is awry.
A forum search appears to say the ADVC-100 and iMovie 11 are not compatible but the fact that 1 minute of tape can be transferred successfully suggests iotherwise.
Are there any suggestions on what may be at fault ?

Problem Solved. It would have helped if I'd checked the Analogue/Digital Button on the front of the Canopus first. Was set to digital when I was importing analogue.
Oh, the times I have forgotten to do that!

Viewing on external monitor with ADVC-100 and s video

I am trying to view my canvas on a external monitor. I have a canopus ADVC-100 and i am using the firewire input and the s video as the output in the back. When I try to set it up and i select view all frames, but when i go to the video output menu it says my firewire device is missing. Any hints or tips on what i am doing wrong. I am using the s-video because the monitor only has a components input available, the RCA's are already occupied.

Is the ADVC powered? When you connect firewire to the back of the unit, it gets powered by that connector, but the firewire jack on the front is only 4-pin and doesn't support power.
If you have a 6-pin to 6-pin firewire cable, try connecting it to the back of the ADVC110 and then the front of the box should light up, indicating power.
I'm having a similar issue. I can print to tape via the Canopus box, but I want to be able to drive a monitor with it just so I can have an NTSC monitor while I'm editing. I can't seem to make it work. Any ideas?

Using Canopus ADVC-100 Analog to Digital Video Converter

Does anyone know if the Canopus ADVC-100 Analog to Digital Video Converter will work with FMLE 3.1?
While FMLE recognize it as a video source?\

Capturing using Canopus ADVC-100 No Power via Firewire

I recently purchased a used Canopus ADVC-100 to use to convert Hi-8 tapes. I'm using a 6 pin to 9 pin connection to my iMac. There are no lights on the ADVC-100, so I'm assuming it is not getting power from the iMac. I do not have an external power supply to test the ADVC-100. The iMac/FCPX is not recognizing the device, so it's not a case of a burned out light. Any help welcomed. Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I was relying on this bulletin from Grass Valley:
http://www.grassvalley.com/docs/Application_Notes/professional/advc/PRV-4077M_AD VC_FireWire800_AN.pdf
Looks like I read it incorrectly. Any leads on the proper power supply? Mine did not come with one.

Capture from ADVC -100

I am trying to capture video from My Canopus ADVC-100, which is hooked up to a VHS VCR. I am having no sucess. I used to do it with an older computer and a previous version of FCP. Have things changed? What settings can I use?
I have an Imac 2.4 GHz Intel core Duo 4 GB ram.
Thank you

That hasn't changed in years. You use the correct DV NTSC or PAL preset with device control set to non-controllable device. Make sure the ADVC box is set to output DV.

No Video when using the "Send To Soundtrack Pro Audio File" Command

Hello FCP Users,
After reading and rereading the FCP and STP manuals and scouring the boards; I still can not figure out how to view my video clip while I'm editing/sweetening audio in STP. I have even used the DVD tutorial in an attempt to figure it out (all works fine and good with the tutorial example), but I'm stuck here the real world.
I'm thinking their must be some preference setting somewhere in STP that I've missed. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!
Best regards,
Jeff
From the Manual:
Soundtrack Pro creates a new audio file project (with the file type .stap) for the clip. The clip can contain video and audio or contain only audio.
In the Final Cut Pro Timeline, Control-click the clip, then choose “Send To >
Soundtrack Pro Audio File Project” from the shortcut menu."
Mac Pro, dual core, 3GHz, 8GB Ram Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Rob,
The audio consists of two separate audio tracks A1 is from a lav mic and A2 is from an on-camera mic.
It was captured DV.
If I rt click the video clip in the "video tl" the "Send To Soundtrack Pro Audio File" in the dialog box is grayed out/not available for selection, but the Send To Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Program is available to select.
If I choose to Send To Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Program I get the following an error message: Error sending selection to Soundtrack Pro.
I've tried de-selecting the "linked selection" in the tl and rt click the audio clip in the "audio tl" and that allows me to "Send To Soundtrack Pro Audio File" , but no video in the utility window of STP.
If I select the "linked selection" in the tl and rt click the audio clip in the "audio tl" the "Send To Soundtrack Pro Audio File" in the dialog box is grayed out/not available for selection, but the Send To Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Program is available to select.
If I choose to Send To Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Program I get the following an error message: Error sending selection to Soundtrack Pro.
It looked all so simple in the tutorial. I'm going on five hours of trying to find an answer to this issue any other suggestions before I slit my wrists? Thanks for your input.

Cannot use the Send to Soundtrack Pro Audio File Command

I cannot use the Send to Soundtrack Pro Audio File Command, only the Multitrack and it's starting to really get on my nerves. It is unhiglighted. If I unlink the clip and select only half of the audio, the option re-appears. I have no idea what is wrong.

As an audio file, you can only send one clip at a time. This is a feature, not a bug. See the book for more information.

Apple Pro Audio Speakers on Intel iMac

Hello everyone!
My new Intel iMac just got opened and is sitting on the desk, but I ran into one issue: The Apple Pro Audio speakers that came with the iMac G4 can not be hooked up. Is there an adaptor I can get, or will I have to make due with the internal speakers for a little bit ? (which by the way, sound really good)

If you're taking speaker recommendations, I love my JBL Creature II speakers. They also come in aluminum, black, and red.
They look a little funky, which is cool, and they sound great!

Microphone Issue - Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro Audio C

Hey there, sorry to post but I've got a little issue which I'm sure is me being stupid but its racking my head so here it comes. I have recently started using talk programs such as vent, skype blah blah to speak to people back home and since moving abroad I have found that now I need the mic to contact these people (which it used to fine before I arri'ved on foreign soil). On clicking on volume control and advance or properties I have nothing in recording for mic and this is where im lost. If I enable the mic on any of the programs people are hearing whatever happens to be coming out of the computer speaks such as games or a movie etc. i've just tried a full removal and reinstallation of the sound drivers for the model in my comp (Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro Audio Card).
All my mates are saying surely you cant lose mic from the volume control but yet its gone and I have no idea how to reactivate it. People seemt o think the card is buggered but it seems fine with everything else I fire out.
Any help on how stupid I'm being would be great.
Thanks in advance.
