Recording a video

Is there a way to record yourself singing or video through the isight cam on the macbook? I do not have any special software though. Photobooth is just for shots right?

If you don't want to buy anything you can use iMovie to do it. It came with your MacBook.

    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.

    Hello Pushtheriver,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning iCloud storage issues:

    This may also help:
    Understanding iOS device capacity
    You can sync and download many different types of content on your device. Some types of content (such as music and videos) typically take more space than others (such as notes and books). The amount of space taken by an app depends on the app's purpose; complex or graphically intense apps usually take more space than simpler apps.
    If your device is near its capacity, you can remove some of the less used content to make room for more.

  • My speaker doesn't work. I record a video and play it back, but there is no sound. Help??

    My iphone 5 speaker doesn't work. I go to record a video but there is no playback sound.

    Do you have the mute switch on? Next to volume buttons - shows orange when mute is on. Other than that just making sure the volume is turned up. It should work.

  • I can't get my new iPad to record a video I see the video right above camera but it is not active yet I can't touch it to activate it.

    I can't get my new iPad to record a video I see the video right above camera but it is not active yet I can't touch it to activate it.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

  • 3rd-party software to record iChat video?

    There used to be Conference Recorder by iCamm, but it doesn't support OS X 10.6. I'm looking for some software that enables me to record iChat video, but not necessarily while I'm chatting with someone -- I used to use Conference Recorder to record a video diary for my own purposes.
    If I’m using iChat and not chatting with anybody the “record video” option is not enabled. Ther has GOT to be some third-party software out there that does the same job as Conference Recorder did. And I’m not talking that ripoff, SnapzPro — who has $69 to spend on shareware? Apple sells an entire OS for less than $30.
    Besides, I don’t want a screen recorder — I would like one specifically for iChat. Any suggestions? It’s hard to believe there isn’t something out there that does what I’m describing for a resonable price.

    I don't have an answer to your question, but it seems to me you're not looking for an app to record iChat video -- there's no chat if you're not chatting -- but for an app to record iSight or FaceTime video. Perhaps you'd be better off looking for a video diary app, maybe something like viJournal.

  • How to record screen video with sound but not playing while its recording

    Hi, I'm trying to figure out a smart way to record some video lectures using my computer. I note that the Quicktime player is able to do that, but it confines your screen to a certain size so anything that falls into that screen capture zone will be recorded which is fine as i get a separate monitor soon so i can just chuck it one side to record while I'm doing other work.
    But what im still trying to figure out is how the sound can also be simultaneously recorded by the software (be it Quicktime or not) and yet not be playing out loud on the speakers so i can do my work and not get distracted by that.
    Any line-in or some clever way to do that?
    Windows options also possible using parallels if anyone has a solution

    Hey Jeffrey,
    The easy solution to this is through the utilization of SoundFlower (Completely free).
    Here are two tutorials that will guide you through the process of capturing your System's Sound as well as recording whatever is playing on the screen:

  • 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.

  • Recording Camcorder video to DVD with Satellite 1900

    I have just tried to record a video from my camcorder to a DVD-R but kept getting the message 'drive not found' My computer is a Satellite 1900 and happily plays DVD's. but would appear not to want to record them.
    Does the type of DVD make any difference, is there a way to make the computer recognise the disc in drive E:
    The video happily transfers from the camera to the computer and I can play it on the computer but cannot transfer it to a DVD disc, anyone with any ideas??

    Hi
    One question; do you have an DVD writer or only the DVD reader!?
    Please be sure that you can also burn DVD with your notebook and not only view.
    Second question; what burning applications did you use?
    I use Nero and its my favorite burning program. It supports many burning modes and burns the medium with best performance.
    Check it!

  • How do I record a video on my macBook Pro's webcam and upload it to YouTube?

    How do I record a video on my macBook Pro's webcam and upload it to YouTube?
    Many thanks.

    Your posted info shows you are using Mac OS X (10.5.8). With this Mac OS, you can use iMovie, Photo Booth, or optional QuickTime 7 Pro to record and save a QuickTime video.  (Be sure to save in a YouTube Supported file format.)
    Then follow the YouTube Help instructions for How to upload your saved videos.

  • What is the best way to record a video(not big) for free on a mac w/isight?

    What is the best way to record a video(not big) for free on a mac w/isight? I need to just make a short (less than 5 minute, no special effects) video, but I can't figure out any programs that will make this possible for me.
    Thanks.

    Hi Carolyn,
    you can use iMovie to record a video for free on a Mac with iSight.
    1. Open iMovie HD
    2. Choose “Create a new project”
    3. Name the project for example “iSight Movie” (first field). In the second field, let the default location “Sequences”, in the third one, video format, choose “iSight”. Push “Create”
    4. iMovie window opens, next to the scissors, choose the camera (Camera mode), then iSight. Now you appear on the screen, right?
    5. Press “Record with iSight” in the main picture window.
    6. Press the same button to stop. Your new clip appears now in the clip panel at the right.
    7. You are done!

  • How can I record a video with LAbview?

    Hi,
    I have a question: How can I record a video with labview?
    I have a camera (AXIS 221) connected via rj45 on PC. I see the video of the camera in a browser.
    And I would to acquire the video in labview.
    Could someone help me?
    Thanks
    Raf

    Unfortunately I haven't any experience with this camera. Iguess, you should install API, then crete new VI, place ActiveX container (palette Container->ActiveX) on the Front Panel, then right mouse click, then choose Insert ActiveX object..., then found you camera object and select it and press OK. Then you probably can see image from the on the front panel. Also probably you will be able to get image data in array (how easy is it - depends from the camera API).
    If you able to see image from camera in the Internet Explorer, then another method - you can put Microsoft Web Browser as ActiveX object, then you should also see the image. Disadvantage of this method - you will be not able to get image data.

  • What is the preferred video file format for iMovie? About to purchase POS digital camera w ability to record HD Video.

    I am about to purchase a digital point and shoot camera with the ability to record HD video.   I plan on importing all pics and video to iPhoto and want to begin creating iMovies combining photo's and the video clips.
    It seems from the many posts that .MOV is supported in iMovie, but many posts in the community seemed to suggest that .MOV does not always work in iMovie.  

    YEAH, but  "iMovie" changes the "camcorder Mts" files into "mov" files and
    this causes some lost of movie quality. To maintain the highest quality
    camcorder movie quality you must not change the "mts" files. However, if
    you want to "merge" any of your camcorder movies (and you most likely
    will) any merging also changes the "mts" files to "mov" etc., so you will still
    loose movie quality. "There appears to be no way to avoid loosing picture
    quality once you decide to change the "Mts" files to something other".

  • Is there any way to PAUSE/RESUME the actual recording while recording a Video Demo slide in Captivate 8?

    If I have to take an "off-screen" action while recording a video demo slide in Captivate I am forced to END and start a separate video demo to continue.
    This fragments my demo and seems an unnecessary set of steps.
    Is there a way to pause the recording for long enough, say to clear my throat, and then resume?
    Thanks.

  • How do you sync sound from a digital recorder with video?

    Can anyone tell me how to sync sound with video? Not a voice over but Voice recorded when video was shot. Voice was recorded on hand held digital recorder.

    When you're shooting use the ciak , then when in imovie, sync the sound of ciak with the closing of it and you're done
    If u havent's used , just seek for a sound or a part of speech witch is very evident to sing
    Do it before cut video
    hope helps
