Record a 16:9 video from my digicam

Hi Folks!
II currently try without success to record to my MacBook Pro from my digicam videoclips in the format 16:9. I recorded them with my Sony in 16:9 format, but when I use QuickTime Pro to record the video, it is only recorded in 4:3.
What is the trick to keep the original 16:9 format? I could not find any settings for this.
Ciao

Where can I do this in QuickTime Pro for recording? I only found settings for the export.
Open the captured file in QT. Under the Window Menu open the "Show Movie Properties option." When the "Properties" window opens, select the "Video Track" line in the upper half of the window and then click the "Visual Settings" tab in the loawer half of the window. Now deselect the "Preserve Aspect Ratio" box. At this time you may enter a "scaled" height that provides a 9:16 aspect ratio for the current width. If capturing in a codec like H.264 the height should usually be a number divisible by 16 for best scaling (i.e., least artifacts) and best working efficiency for encoding/decoding, If you wish to make the new display size permanent when opening clip, simply save the file before closing the file. (If you forget, the QT Player will remind you when you attempt to close the file or exit the application.)

App to record screen and capture video from camera at the same time?

For the love of God, why is it 2013 (the age of YouTube and such), and I can't find an app that lets me record my hdv camera (canon hv30) AND the computer screen at the same time? I make piano tutorials on YouTube and my current workflow is so horrendous that I havent even made a video in almost a year. What should take 30 minutes, takes 5 hours. Here is my current shi**y workflow.
1. I use iMovie Hd to capture hdv camera
2. I use QuickTime X to capture the screen (i record a virtual keyboard display that lights up the keys I am playing)
3. I have to use a DAW to record the piano sound and my voice since iMovie hd doesnt have the ability to record audio from a separate source than the camera, for some **** reason. (opening up and setting up all three programs takes about 8 minutes)
4. I press "record" on all three programs as quickly as possible to make syncing easier. (my videos are about 7 minutes long, so this part takes about 7 minutes)
5. After I record all 3 things, I export the video from iMovie into a friendlier format to edit in another video editor since iMovie doesmt have the ability to overlay the screencap over another video (****). (25 minutes)
6. I render the audio I recorded in the DAW into a wave file. (another 10 minutes)
7. I import the camera footage, the screen cap, and the audio file into the video editing program. (another 5-10 minutes)
8. I sync the audio and video clips since they were recorded separately (2 minutes)
9. I do all the edits (add intro, cut unwanted footage etc) (10 minutes)
10. I re-render the footage into a final video file. (about 30 minutes)
This is fu*****g ridiculous. There is no ONE program that does everything I need, just diferrent programs that have a feature I need, but is missing another. For example, a program called "screen flow" let's me record the screen, a camera, and an external audio source all at once, but for some frisking reason, it doesmt support "hdv" cameras (basically anything that records HD). Then, there are programs that record HD, but can't record the screen at the same time. This is only an issue since I am on a Mac, since apparently there are countless of programs that can do all the things I need at once (so I don't have to resync, and render things like 3 times each) and many of them are even free (such as xsplit) but they only work in Windows. For the love of God why? It's 2013 for christs sakes. It shoudnt take me 5 hours to make a 7 minute video. If it wasmt for this turn-off, I would have thousands of piano tutorials on yourtube already.
So my question. Is there an app that fixes my workflow and allows me to do all the things I need in one program? If there isn't such a program, why isn't there one?

maybe you have outgrown or just need to look at the "pro" applications instead.

I want to record 25 or 30fps video from the webcam of my macbookpro. Quick time or iMovie create 14 to 20fps (variable fps) videos only.

Hi,
I wanted to record high frame rate videos (25 or 30) using my MBP. I tried photo booth, Quick time and iMovie, but they record movies in variable frame rates (14 to 20 fps) even if i save them in different formats. I cannot find any setting to change frame rate in these softwares.
Before going to buy a new webcam or software I wanted to make sure if frame rate is limited by the capacity of the HD webcam or the softwares itself in MBPs.
If it's the limitation of software, is there any 3rd party software/app that would help recored high frame rate movies with the MBP webcam itself?

I had a av cord that plugged into the iPhone 3gs and iPad 2 but its not compatible with the 5 connector. Right now i have to email myself the videos in small segments and open and save on the iPad 2 to burn them. Is there an easier way to burn these from my iPhone 5 or through air play on apple tv?
Thanks

Connect the phone by USB to the computer, import with image capture, iPhoto or whatever application you use to import movies, drop it into iTunes.

We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube?

I do not want to have to go through an intermediary step of messing with a pc.

It should be around 7 and a half gigs. In iTunes, across the bottom there should be a bar that show how much storage is being used and by what. (music, movies, apps, etc.) To make music take up less room, you can check the box to make it convert the music to 128kbps AAC. This lowers the quality, but with most earbuds and speakers, you can't even tell the difference.
The iPod touch has parental controls built in. You'll find them in Settings. I think they only work for enabling/disabling Safari, Mail, YouTube, and App Store. Here's an app that does more: http://www.mobicip.com/online_safety/ipod_touch

Tap the icon to see the list of available AirPlay devices.
Enable AirPlay Mirroring in this menu by tapping on an available Apple TV, then sliding the Mirroring slider to ON.
Now you should be seeing your iPad/iPhone on your TV.

Recording Internet Video from Mac to VCR

Here's what I want to do ---
There is some streaming video that I wish to be able to show to a class. I cannot download it and burn it to a DVD, so I was hoping to hook up my computer to my TV, play the video and record it to a VHS cassette.
I have succeeded in using the TV as a monitor, with both video and sound, and I played the streaming video and hit the record button on the VCR.
However, when I tried to play it back, I just got several minutes of a screen that was blank except for the words "Unusable Signal." Obviously it had not recorded the video.
Does anyone know whether/how I can do what I am attempting?
Or is there a way to connect the computer directly to the VCR and record that way?
I realize this a backward process compared to what most people try to do with a Mac and a VCR. Please help!
(FYI, I am using a G$ PowerBook, running OSX 10.3.9, and Samsung VCR.)
Thanks.

Yes, you need to hook up the Mac to the VCR directly, as if it were the TV. If you then connect the VCR output to the TV you'll be able to see what you're receiving on the VCR.
Many VCRs have composite video connectors or S-Video connectors, to take video from handycams and the like so you should be able to do it without difficulty.

Hi, Vikas-
After a brief bit of research, you're definitely hitting upon the limitation of the browsers. Not all of the browsers have implemented this part of the HTML5 standard, so you're going to either have to use Flash or be limited to these specific browsers.
Thanks,

QuickTime Player Pro can't record the screen.
QuickTime X can record the screen (but only all of it and not just a window). It's a part of Snow Leopard.

Recording video from Computer

This might not be the correct forum but maybe someone out there knows how i can record video from my computer. I need good quality videos like you would see on www.lynda.com. Would anyone know how this can be done?

I will suggest you contact the moderator at the F4M forum HERE. I think he's quite pro in this field of wmv encoding. Also, the article HERE, from Ken Stone, might be helpful.
There's another guy, Ben Wagoneer, who knows this stuff really well....I think you can find him at creative cow.
Let us know what you find out.

Cannot found url error when i try to play my camera recorded video from my iphone 4S running ios 5.01

I got an error cannot Find url when i attempt to play my camera recorded video from my iphone 4S 32 gig. I try to restart my phone but still no luck. There was no problem previously, but suddenly i got this problem with no reason. I also unable to copy the video to my computer using itunes. So please helppp...
Thanks a ton!!
Note: My iphone 4S is running ios 5.01.

See if it helps to delete the firmware file and download a new one:
Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw)
iTunes uses "ipsw" files to restore your iPod or iPhone. If those files are unusable, then try deleting them, renaming them, or moving the file to a different directory. This will cause iTunes to download a new copy of the IPSW. When a restore issue is specific to a user, it is likely due to an unusable .ipsw file. If removing the .ipsw file does not resolve a user-specific restore issue, then the issue is caused by other user-specific security software settings or iTunes preferences. Creating a new user will also cause new .ipsw restore files to be downloaded in the new user. You can find the ".ipsw" files in these locations:
Mac OS X
iPhone
~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates
iPad
~/Library/iTunes/iPad Software Updates
iPod touch
~/Library/iTunes/iPod Software Updates
Note: The tilde "~" represents your Home directory.
