Recording Live DV. Is this possible?

The church that I work at uses a program called VT4 for live computer based switching. I would like to run a firewire out of that computer(pc) into my Mac so that I can record and save the sermon as a quicktime file. Is this possible to do in Final Cut?
I have been trying some different things but I cannot seem to get Final Cut to recognize the signal. It always says "[missing]DV Video". I think it keeps looking to control a camera or a deck. Is there any way to set it to just record an incoming stream of DV through firewire?
Thanks in advance,
Adam

What do you normally use to record the DV stream or how is the firewire routed normally?
Go to the Log and Capture Window ( Command + 8)
Click on the Capture Settings tap and select DEVICE CONTROL>"Non-Controllable Device"
Make sure that CAPTURE/INPUT is the correct format for your DV.
If need be, VIEW>EXTERNAL VIDEO>REFRESH ALL DEVICES
It is possible the device will not work with FCP.
Your switcher may not be a bi-directional device and FCP is looking for something it can send a signal OUT as well.
good luck.

Using green screen ( but just on isight) is this possible

Can anybody direct me to a tutorial on exactly how to place a greenscreen background into the isight capture.
I am using imovie 09 to create a video however i captured the isight footage using screenflow. Now i would like to use the isight footage however wanted to place a nice background image in the frame so it looks more pro than just the background of the recording area. Is this possible.
I attempted to export from screen flow and import into imovie however it exports the whole enchilada screencast and isight as an exported .mov.

(1) Position "greenscreen" (something like this: http://tinyurl.com/29w2lp4 )
(2) Position subject in front of "greenscreen"
(3) Record with iSight

Seems simpler to me to follow iMovie Help to record and superimpose directly in iMovie:

I need to import a live analog RCA signal into a Macbook Air 13" model A1466 to record on Final Cut. Is this possible? If so, how?

I need to import a live analog RCA signal into a Macbook Air 13" model A1466 to record on Final Cut. Is this possible? If so, what equipment/cables do you recommend pruchasing?

If you want audio and video from your RCA cable source, you would need a converter device. One that I have used is the EyeTV Hybrid from ElGato. You attach to the Mac via USB, and can attach to RCA composite, Coax, or S-Video. You would record into the EyeTV software and later export to Final Cut for editing. This would not go live into Final Cut Pro.

I want to be able to use airplay to stream audio to another iOS device, and then use that audio stream to be used when recording video instead of the built in microphone / microphone input. Is this possible?

A third-party app probably cannot obtain a stream from another app. To the best of my knowledge, such a capability is not provided in the software development kit, apps being "sandboxed" from each other and so allowed to communicate only in very specific and limited ways.
I'm not completely sure what you mean by "limitations on video capture". An iPhone, to the best of my knowledge, can natively record video only through it's built-in camera, and audio while doing video recording only through the built-in microphone or mic/headphone jack. There might be a video recording app that would allow audio input from an external device connected to the dock connector, but I'm not sure.

How Can I put an Artists Live Albums in a separate folder, so they sort by "Concert Date" in iTunes and do not "intermingle" so to speak with Studio Albums? Is this possible?

How Can I put an Artists Live Albums in a separate folder, so they sort by "Concert Date" in iTunes and do not "intermingle" so to speak with Studio Albums? Is this possible?
That is about the best way I can phrase my question.
I put year/month/date at the beginning of a show, hoping for them to sort by date and I get mixed results.
Would creating a Folder within the Artists' existing folder that said "Pearl Jam Live", inside the "Pearl Jam" folder in iTunes Media help this "Date Sorting Issue"?
Thank you.

Or is there a way to go through aperture to make a new reference library that I can move the masters into later?
you do not move the masters into a references library - you turn your current library into a referenced library. As Terence Devlin said:
File -> Relocate Masters
What you should set up:
Select a folder, where you want to store your referenced files - probably on an external drive.
Decide on a hierarchical folder structure inside this folder - that is completely up to you.
Select a project from your library and use the command "File -> Relocate Masters/Originals" to move the original image files to the folder where you want to go them to. Only take care not to send two projects to the same folder.
Alternatively, if you do not care about the folder structure Aperture will use, select all images at once from the "Photos" view and let Aperture decide how to assing the folders - in the "Relocate Originals" dialoge you can specify a subfolder format.

I have the djay app on my ipad and i want to record the set i'm playing on my iphone through garageband. i need to take the sound from the headphone jack of the ipad, as the 30pin connector will be used to connect to the DJLive accessory. Is this possibl?

I want all my devices to be on a password related internet but the double nat on my TC makes weird things happen and slow. I try bridge mode but the internet doesn't work.
You building supplied internet is a cheap service that is without proper routable addresses..
Therefore to use more than one IP you MUST have double NAT.. sorry there is no choice..
Slow that is because you are sharing internet with every other person in the building.. get your own broadband service.
Bridge will not work.. it cannot work because the building only has private IP addressing. And they only give you a single address.
You can put a password on the wireless.. go to the airport utility and put in a password.
Other than that I don't understand what password you expect.
Can I get an explanation of what bridge mode is?
No NAT.. means the TC becomes a dumb Wireless AP and switch.. works fine with a cable modem router.. or any broadband router but useless with your building system.
Can I get suggestions on what I should do to use the TC as a wireless device to spread the same wireless device my apartment is broadcasting?
Double NAT, and set your own wireless names. There is no alternative.. sorry.

Hi. I am trying to record a video on my iPad 2 but hoping to use an external condenser microphone via my Lexicon Lambda interface. Is this possible, and if so, how?

Try a restart.
If that doesn't fix the problem, shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application unistaller. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

Recording Live Concerts from Soundboard (Macbook 2012)

Hey there, new to the forum. Decided to sign in after discovering and reading on here that my Mac was built with out the option for input on the headphone jack. So I have an external sound card for home recording but I am looking for the easiest way to use my mac to record live shows. I could use te external sound card but I would like a direct input option as the more equipment the more impatient sound guys can be.
So I am wondering if you guys have any advice. I know the imic is an option. What about an rca to usb recorded with logic? I don't know, if anyone has solved this problem I would love to hear what you did. I am hoping to not have to buy a bunch of things for trial and error...
thanks

GB is not the best choice, an audio editor would be a safer bet for "unmanned" recording:

I'm not too concerned (right now)about mixing, tracks for each instrument, although I would like to know if that's possible
if you only send a stereo signal to the mac, then, no. you'd need an audio interface that offers multiple channels, and of course you'd have to send IT multiple channels.
...but right now I just want to plug the output of the soundboard into my Macbook and record the entire show

I did put the master track info or something to "rock- live gig".
don't, all effects affect playback only, you'd just be adding unnecessary draw on the CPU without any change in what's recorded

Lag When Recording Live Stream

I am experiencing a very strange behavior from FMS
I am conducting a live conversation between 2 people using
their webcams. One of the participants have a relatively slow
computer (we think its the anti-virus). When conducting the live
session everything seems to be fine... Still a bit slower than fast
computers but still pretty good.
We are doing the following test:
We do a combined count from 1 to 20.
participant-1 counts "1" (this is the slow computer)
Only after hearing his count participant-2 counts "2"
Again, only after hearing his "2" participant-1 counts "3"
and so on...
so the count goes from participant-1 to the server and from
there to participant-2 only then the "2" count leaves participant-2
to the server and so on...
This session is being recorded. What I am getting in the
recored video is very strange...
I am getting participant-2 count before participant-1. So the
count goes:
2,1,4,3,6,5 and so on
How is this possible to have the order correct on the live
and not on the recorded?

Hi,
As it is , in the current form, both the applications cannot make VOD files directly. The live sample application can be modified to have a server side recording of the incoming live stream that can then be played as vod stream.

Lenovo g580 do I need to buy an external audio interface to record live instruments and voice ?

Hello, If anyone could help me please ?, I am wondering do I need to buy an external audio interface to record live instruments and voice onto my lenovo g580.?
My friends have said that good laptops have audio interface's built in... but I cannot see how this could work as I am trying to build a home recording studio. Do they mean that I just need to have a mixing desk ? As the audio interface is already in my laptop, ?
Another question I have is... I have bought a microphone to record with a studio mic. But when I plug it into the headphone socket, it works as a speaker and not as a microphone. Please can you tell me how do I make it work as a microphone, and record on ableton. Thanks. I live alone with two cats so I'd really appreciate some help !
Thank you very much, best wishes.

I'm preparing to expand my studio from a 1 man songwriting system,
to add the capability to record a complete live band, with 16 separate
simultaneous tracks recording. Am I dreaming?
Nope. I've been recording live bands with up to 56 channels at 24 bit 48kHz for three years now.
1) Does my computer have enough native power to handle such a task?
Yes. The actual recording uses the hard drive buss, so you need to make sure you have fast drives and a dedicated FW or SATA buss for them.
2) Is there an audio interface device that could help shoulder some of
the cpu load?
No. CPU is used only for routing audio, effects, etc. An audio interface is used to route the audio in and out of the computer, and as such does not process effects at all.
3) is it possible to use my multiple, fast internal drives to help?
Yes. Although with Logic Pro you can use only one drive at a time for recording. HOWEVER, I have been able to use SATA drives to record up to 56 tracks AT ONCE. So there is plenty of power there.
4) If not 16, what's the highest realistic track count I can hope for?
Again, I have done 56 tracks. 16 is a walk in the park in comparison to 56. I would recommend you invest in Apogee AD16X and DA16X, since in one interface you get ALL 16 inputs, and the other gives you the 16 outputs to go to, say, a mixer. And the sound quality is very very very good.
thanks in advance
You're welcome.
Cheers

!Can you record live while game playing with adobe audition? PLEASE HELP!

Can you record live while game playing with adobe audition? I have a youtube channel and I want to record voice as I'm playing of course and cancel out the noise maybe put a nice effect on it.. But how do I do this? Please help! I only see ones for recording like after.. But I want to record it as it's happening is this possible!? it has to be. thanks *ADOBE AUDITION CC*

That'll depend on the capabilities of the sound card/audio interface you're using. If that interface can feed the right things to Audition, it can record it. For just the game, look for "Wave Out" or "What U Hear" on the list of audio sources but not every system has this. Also, if you want to record your own contributions as well as the game sound, that gets more complex too.
I know that there are specialist pieces of software that are designed to record live gameplay (which don't rely simply on your local sound card). I know of a couple called "Action!" and "XSplite" but I have not personal experience with either.
However, before going that direction, check out the "Record Devices" menu in your sound system and see what it allows.
