Record computer screen to DV Camera

Anyone know how to record a computer screen to DV Camera on a Mac? Must be an easy way...

Off the top of my head...
Method 1.
Point camera at computer screen. Adjust shutter to minimize or eliminate "rolling" (if your camera has this capability.) Press Record.
Method 2.
Use a screen capture utility like SnapzPro in video mode. Save the movie in DV format and output to camera through FCP.

Recording computer screen images to edit in Final Cut Pro?

Hi folks
I'm trying to record exactly the images from my computer screen to then edit in Final Cut Pro. Is this possible? Through the basic ilink cable or do I need specific software?
I have been recommended software called Snapz Pro, which allows recording the screen image, but I have no idea if it can then be edited to my choice in Final Cut Pro. Anyone help? Or does anyone have any other suggestions?
Thanks for reading.
Cheers

Snapz Pro works just fine, just bear in mind if you are capturing a screen area larger than video dimensions you will have to do some scaling and rendering (possibly) in FCP if you set Snapz to record a video size frame to DV NTSC/PAL codec it will be ready to use straight off. Snapz will even let you have the frame follow the mouse if you are using a monitor set to a higher res than video and don't need full screen but will be moving around the entire area (trust me this is easier to see in action rather than for me to explain)
Anyway to sum up YES SnapzPro will work for the project you describe

Recording the screen with a video camera

Can someone help me be able to record everything on my screen to my video camera? Can I use a firewire to do so? Is there a specific application i require? What I DON'T want to do is record my screen straight to the computer (this will be processor/space intensive) plus I already know how to do that? Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Forums!
I'm a little confused. You want to record your screen to your video camera? Point the camera at the screen and press record on the camcorder. Viola.
I suspect what you want to do is not that simple, but that's the answer to the question you asked
IF you have a recording device with a _video in_ (which is something that camcorders typically don't have!! - other than the lens, I mean...), you'd need to convert the video out - which is the DVI port.
So, if it were me, I'd use my DVI-to-video adapter, connect the DVI output to my DVR (the one on my TV), set the DVR to that input, and record that way.
Hope this helps...

I am recording from my computer screen with an elgato game capture card. Why is the video blurry when I import it to Premiere elements?

I am recording my computer screen with an elgato game capture card. When I play the unedited footage on my own computer, it is clear and crisp. When I import the footage into premiere elements, it becomes blurry. It becomes even blurrier when I save the edited video. How do I keep the video clear? How do I fix it?

Betharoo
Thanks for the reply.
Please check out John T. Smith's information.
At this point, if you could tell us the file extension of the file involved, that would give us a start while you are
gathering the rest of the details.
You can easily get some information for us from Properties for your imported video that is blurry in the Editor.
1. Click on Expert to get into the Expert workspace of Premiere Elements 13
2. If you have not already, import your file into the program using Add Media/Files & Folder/Project Assets.
3. Open Project Assets to see a thumbnail for the video that you just imported. Right click that thumbnail,
and select and click on Properties from the menu that opens.
4. Tell us what is listed there is Properties - it should look something like this one which is specific for one of my wmv files.
Your information will be specific to the file that you right clicked in your Project Assets.
From what you have written so far, yours should show
Image Size 1920 x 1080
Frame Rate either 59.94 or 60
Also, please go to Edit Menu/Project Settings/General, and tell us what you see for
Editing Mode
Timebase
Frame Size
Pixel Aspect Ratio
even if the fields look grayed out.
Your project settings may be contributing your Edit area previewing problems.
All of the above will keep us moving forward in the troubleshooting.
Thanks.

How can you record the screen of any device with no computer and no jailbreak?

I would like to record the screen to record my gameplay and other stuff. Please help.

Josh, this was my first gripe when I moved to IronPort toward the end of 2008; I forget the version of Asyncos we were on then. Remember that the design philosophy (as I'm given to understand it) is that you shouldn't have to nursemaid it as much as some other gateways, though achieving that is more a question of developing robust mail policies than simply plugging in the device and running the setup wizard.
I found the Asyncos GUI a bit of a pain to work with for header analysis, but I've adapted over time. It's only an annoyance now when you need to see an attachment file name that scrolls across three or four screen widths, and by comparison SharePoint gives me more grief in that department (we're on a paleolithic version here).
For some things we send a copy of quarantined items out to a dedicated mailbox only accessible by staff monitoring our gateways; for more details see my posting in your thread "Can't View Video Files Attached To Emails".

Anyone know a decent way to record video of computer screen?

I'm trying to make a high quality avi of my computer screen. I've got some graph animations and i'd like to capture it as a video. Any recommendations?
Terry

What program did you make the graphs in? What other programs do you have?
Why AVI?? Are you a switcher?
If you need to capture your screen - Mr. Cert's suggestion is good or iShowU is another or even one I really like: Jing but there you are limited to flash.
Anyway - you might be able to get what you want by combining programs and exports.

Okay my Macbook Pro computer screen suddenly went black but it came back on once I clicked a key what does this mean?

I need some assistance I just bout a refurbished Macbook Pro 17 inch and i have had it for roughly 2 weeks. My computer screen suddenly went black and comes back on after I press a key. What is the matter I need help cause im starting to get upset

Hi,
is it possible that while working in photoshop, you accidentally hit this key-command?
Control+shift+eject
This instantly darkens your screen to black. When you hit any key, the screen comes back, the behaviour you describe.
(It's a handy thing when your boss comes in and you don't want him to see your "confidential information".)
Maybe there a key command in photoshop you used and you missed a key?
(Or something was pressing on the right top corner of your keyboard (the eject key) en you pressed ctrl-shift to execute some other keycommand)

My computer isnt detecting my camera

i just got a macbook pro, and i have a sony mini dv camera. I used to use this camera to edit movies on my old computer, but when i plug it into my macbook with a firewire, the computer doesn't even detect a camera. It doesnt sense any camera at all. How do i get it to work?

Hi Christina
May be You find some help in my list:
Mac:
- hardware
◊ Slow hard disk (fragmented: repair permissions, repair hard disk, use a faster hard disk)
◊ Disconnect all other ext devices (FW and USB) exept Camera (and keyboard + mouse) and try again
◊ Reset PRAM
◊ Bad RAM-chips
◊ disconnect Mac from powerline (not just switch off, really plug out) for a few minutes to reset FW ports
- software
◊ File-Vault is on - turn it off
◊ Something is occupying the CPU/System, like other programs, Internet etc.
◊ Do You have desktop pictures or screen or energy-savers active? Try turning them off.
◊ Updating - OS has to be a clean install - not an update eg from X.3.x to X.4.x (no good) OS X.4.0-5 needs a clean install to work (I use X.3.9)
◊ Updating QT and/or other updates (to 7 needs v6 to be cleaned out first) QT v.7.0.0-4 needs a clean install to work (I use 6.5.2)
◊ Have you tried the crazy fix: Open GarageBand, play a few notes, close it and reopen iMovie. The camera should import fine now. Sue/SDillini
◊ Running iDVD at the same time as iMovie can cause problems: (Lennart Thelander)
◊ If You also have installed FinalCut Express/pro there are possibly problems with this
iMovie:
◊ remove bookmarks in iMovie project
◊ Trash: com.apple.iMovie.plist and com.apple.iMovie3.plist : files (Xinram)
Connection:
◊ don’t Daisy chain Camcorder <--> external hard disk <--> Mac
◊ FW-wire cable, is it OK?
◊ USB/USB2 is NO GO !
Camera:
◊ The Camera is set to VTR ? (not as when You ”film” record with it)
◊ You may be need to go to the Camera menu and select digital out.
◊ defective camera TRY IT ON ANOTHER MAC ! (if the A/D chip in the camera is harmed then it will say in iMovie that the camera is connected and You can forward rep. backward the tape but there will be no picture or sound just the blue screen).
◊ connect camera to power-line, not battery-only....(Karsten Schlüter)
◊ Canons don't allow daisychaining on firewire, make it "only device" on port (Karsten Schlüter)
◊ Cheque the menu on Your Camera so that it communicates with the FW digitally to Your Mac
◊ Date and Time is correct on Your Camera ?
Tape:
◊ Drop outs on the miniDV-tape - make a camera to camera copy on a tape which You have previous recorded with a time code (dummy recording).
◊ Break in the time-code on the miniDV tape (make a camera to camera copy on a tape which is pre-recorded with nothing/anything so that the tape has a time-code from beginning to the end)
◊ If You recorded in LP-mode (90 min on a standard 60 min tape with 12-bit sound). Try to change in iMovie pref. to import but not as individual clips. If this doesn’t work You have to make a Camera to Camera copy with the receiving Camera set to SP-mode and 16-bit sound.

Video of computer screen - extra lines

I recorded a bit of my computer screen from iphone 5s from about a foot away and sometimes the playback had extra faded diagonal / curvey lines that came and went - is there any tips as to how to minimize this effect?

Recording iPhone screen

Hullo,
I would like to record what is on the screen of the iPhone for showing the behaviour of a new app. I saw a number of applications are available on Cydia but, not wanting to jailbreak my iPhone, I would like to know if there is some other way to do it or if there is an Apple imposed regulation, I frankly do not fully understand, against such functionality.

If you have updated itunes past 9.0 and upgraded your firmware, apple wont let you jb and their is currently no jb for 4.2 ios. I would not suggest jb for anything ios 4.0 or above. Get a camera and record it, or try to find some kind of screen emulator for ipod touch. It sounds more like you need something installed on your computer instead of your ipod. Recording your screen might burn your ram up too quick.

Can I connect an external video camera to a mac book pro for viewing live video so I don't have to use the little screen on the camera?

• Only if your video camera supports it. Depending on how your camera works, you may need to add preview software to your Mac to use this feature.
• Alternatively, your camera may also be able to record directly into your Mac while you are monitoring the Mac's display.
• If you are using a consumer camcorder that supports HDMI monitoring, a small HDTV might be an simpler solution than your Mac. For an example of how this is done, see http://youtu.be/GVpSkZD6qE4.
• The retailer who sold you your video camera may have other suggestions.
• If you need more professional results, an external preview monitor will offer more capability on compatible cameras.

You can take a screen shot of any page in your iPad. Simply hold the power and home button for less than an second and you'll hear the camera shutter. The picture will be stored in your camera roll and you can then email it.
