Recording using iSight

Can I record, directly into FCP, through my in built iSight cam on my MacBook Pro? If not, is there an Ap that will allow me to do this and saves the clip as a quicktime?

Doncha kinda thing Jerry deserves at least a ?

  • Quicktime Pro Error Message Using iSight To Record

    Just wanted to post this quick fix to an issue I had (BTW), before I FIGURED THIS OUT, I called Apple support and was told I'd have to pay $199.00 for QT Support... nice Apple. Anyway, if you are trying to record using the built in iSight camera and get an error message "can't record video" (I'm paraphrasing) check to see where you're saving the video (as in the folder). QT defaulted to my desktop, but it had little RED hash (minus) sign on it. I changed the saved folder location to my "Movies" folder and it worked (FYI: I changed it back to my desktop folder to see if that was really the issue, but it worked fine, so I'm not sure what desktop folder it was looking at, maybe a shared one).
    Hope this helps someone and it's free.
    PS: Check your settings in preferences as well.

    I've got the same problem. does anybody has an solution?
    how many files can QT handle?

  • Video out of synch with audio using isight camera

    Anybody have any solutions?
    I am recording using the built-in isight. What seems to be happening is that the first one or two seconds of audio is not being recorded, so it looks like the video is a few seconds behind the audio. Any ideas how to fix it--that is, without having to extract the audio and sync it manually?
    thanks

    Sorry that didn't help, Jon.
    This kbase search makes me wonder if perhaps you have some kind of conflict with something you are doing in Logic or some other AV Pro App?
    If you can rule that out, too, somebody else might have suggestions. It may help them to know if you have exactly the same problem when you try to record movie clips with some other application.
    I have no other ideas.

  • Recording with iSight???

    Hello!
    I was wondering if it is possible to record off of my television with iSight/iMovie? Simply pointing the iSight at the TV really isn't what I'm looking for. I was hoping that there is a way I could get iSight/iMovie to work as a capture card.
    If this is possible, what types of cables would I need?
    Thanks,
    Hunter

    Welcome to Apple Discussions, JHB1422
    The only way to use iSight to capture your TV is the way you do NOT want to use.
    Neither iSight nor iMovie can function as a capture card. Additional hardware is required.
    There are a number of Mac compatible TV capture devices available. The Apple Store sells Elgato EyeTV Hybrid.
    Your Apple retailer may be able to suggest other ways depending upon what equipment you already own. Moreover, your dealer can certainly help you determine what cables are needed to connect your system components to any new equipment you select.

  • High Pitched Noise When Recording From iSight Camera

    I apologize if this has been asked before. I did a search on here as well as with Google.
    Whenever I record a video clip using the built in iSight camera I notice that there is a constant high-pitched noise embedded in the clip. You don't hear the noise during recording, and otherwise the audio is crystal clear during playback, but I can't seem to figure out what is causing this noise. Video clips I import into iMovie don't have this problem. Has anyone else experienced this problem? How can I prevent this from happening with future recordings?

    Hello obsidianspider
    I am sorry to report that you are one of about ten people who have posted here about audio noises during video recordings with MacBooks. I listened to your YouTube clip, and I believe you are hearing something. I can hear the muffled "thumping" of background noises being amplified because there is no voice or other close sound being recorded in your video, but my old ears do not hear anything high pitched in your video (or anywhere else for that matter.)
    I am sure Apple is aware of the issue, but with so small a number reporting this issue among thousands of MacBooks sold, I understand why there is not yet a kBase technical article on this subject.
    I expect that Apple searches its warranty & repair work for quality issues and trends, but, if you have not (and do not) contact Apple or your retailer for service on this issue, please report your problem via MacBook Feedback so Apple can accurately record the magnitude of this problem. Unlike posting in this user forum, "Feedback" reports go directly to Apple.
    We users who post here have found no solution yet, so the problem appears to require professional service for resolution.
    However, if you are willing to try a test, please post back and tell us whether video or movie clip recording applications other than Apple's give the same audio noise you hear when using iSight with iMovie. Apple's QuickTime Pro has already been tested and found to exhibit the problem.
    If you have access to an external microphone that can be located away from your Mac while you record video, you could also test to see whether you are recording a physical sound coming from your Mac or electronic noise being produced within your Mac's circuitry.
    If you want to read the suggestions we have offered for minimizing your audio noise in video recordings, take a look at the suggestions offered in Eemma's thread, which was the first to report this problem. The suggestions for minimizing noise start here:
      http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4483866&#4483866
    If you want to read what other users who experience this (or similar noise) problem, you can find them in these two threads:

  • Noise when using isight in Movie 08

    I have substantial noise when using iSight in iMovie '08. Please see my example on Youtube Mirno63 labeled test. I would like to have my daughter practice for a recital using isight but the noise is so loud. Please help!
    Thanks
    Marian

    Hello, Marian (mirno)
    If I am listening to the correct YouTube video, I think that at least some of the sound that is troubling you is background noise. Sookyas may also be right that feedback is causing your problem.
    In either case, using an external Mic that is positioned closer to the voice you want to record than to your MBP should help you.
    I use this Logitech USB Desktop Microphone when I want to get sound from a person who is not close to my Mac. My Logitech does a GREAT job on spoken words. Although it is not advertised as (and does not cost as much as) a music microphone, it gives better sound recordings than my laptop's built-in mic unless the voice being recorded is very close to my laptop. It certainly meets my singing and other amateur music needs. However, other brands should work, too.
    Unless you can buy one from a trusted retailer who will give you full exchange or refund credit if a new microphone does not correct your problems, I suggest you take your wonderfully portable MBP with you when you shop, add any needed driver, and test the mic before you buy.
    Here is how I would perform the test. 
    • Leave "AudioMide" settings at default. (You should not need to change these settings when using iMovie except in extraordinary circumstances.)
    • Set your  > System Preferences > Sound > Input to use the new mic as your input device.
    • Extend the microphone's cable away from your MBP, and start recording.
    • Leave the computer where it is and physically move near the mic so your mouth is approximately half a meter from mic.
    • Sing or speak in a normal voice for a few seconds and then stop the recording.
    • Now change your System Sound Input preference back to user you MBP's built-in mic again.
    • Start recording again.
    • Leaving the MBP in place, move back to the same place where you tested the external mic.
    • Sing or speak again at about the same volume you did when using the external mic.
    • Stop the recording, and play back both recording so you can compare them.
    This test should let you easily determine whether the external mic meets your needs.
    If the noise is still there when recording from the external mic, there is most likely something wrong with your Mac. Contact Apple or your Apple-Authorized Service Provider.

  • Can I use iSight as a remote camera?

    I'd like to use iSight as a remote camera and record the video to a miniDV camera in a safer location.
    I don't have a nearby Applestore to go check this idea out, does anyone know if it's possible? I have a powered FW hub, so I can power the iSight w/o a computer (I think)

     You're welcome, Mark. Have you driven an iSight from a Dazzle before, or do you know someone who has?No.
    Although I have no technical data to quote that proves this, based on reports posted in Apple Discussions, I believe that iSight is less protected against shock, vibration, dust, and humidity than my "walking-around" cameras.
    I use a camcorder or the movie setting on my digital still camera for recording movie clips when I will be moving the camera. I do not mean to imply that iSight is inordinately delicate, merely that it is not as shock resistant as cameras designed to be carried. I would be surprised if iSight would withstand the rigors of aerobatics.
    Based on what you want to do, iSight's seemingly modest shock tolerance, and the price of GL2s, I would look for a device more like the sports camcorder mentioned earlier.
    Perhaps others can offer some first-hand experience that will be relevant to what you want to do.

  • I was trying to make a new screen recording using quicktimeplay, but when I watched the video after recording it all I could hear was me talking while the video was showing on the screen. How do I turn off that recording and turn the right one on? thanks

    Hi j2399123,
    It sounds like your screen recording is doing what it was designed to do, capture what is happening on your screen, with optional voice over with the microphone.
    Screen recording is for recording what you see on the screen, it is not a "video capture" option, like for capturing a movie with sound that is playing on your screen.
    For the QuickTime recording options, check out "Recording with QuickTime Player" in
    Mac Basics: QuickTime Player creates, plays, edits, and shares video and audio files
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4024
    And for screen recording specifically, there's
    QuickTime Player 10.x: Record your computer’s screen

    Thank you for thinking of Apple Support Communities for your support needs.

  • How to get multiple records using fn-bea:execute-sql()

    Hi,
    I created Proxy service(ALSB3.0) to get records from DB table. I have used Xquery function(fn-bea:execute-sql()). Using simple SQL query I got single record, but my table having multiple records. Please suggest how to get multiple records using fn-bea:execute-sql() and how to assign them in ALSB variable.

    Edited by: user10373980 on Sep 29, 2008 6:11 AM

    Hi,
    Am facing the same issue stated above that I couldnt get all the records in the table that am querying in the Proxyservice.
    For example:
    fn-bea:execute-sql('EsbDataSource', 'student', 'select Name from StudentList' ) is the query that am using to fetch the records from the table called StudentList which contains more than one records like
    Id Name
    01 XXX
    02 YYY
    03 ZZZ
    I tried to assign the result of the above query in a variable and while trying to log the variable, I can see the below
    <student>
    <Name>XXX</Name>
    </student>
    I want to have all the records from my table in xml format but it's not coming up. I get the value only from the first row of my table.
    Please suggest.
    regards,

  • How to detect if a user has changed a record using a custom method?

    I am in the process of developing a test case application using ADF JSF and a collection of Java objects that are not populated by a database.
    Details of what I have developed so far can be found on this post:
    how to create a new record using a custom method?
    Is it possible to detect if a user has changed the value(s) of a record?
    I have set the edit page up (as described in the other post) and this works fine, but how could I tell if the user has changed something on that record. This is what I would like to do, but am not sure how to achieve it or whether it is possible....
    when the user puts a record in edit mode, take a copy of that record
    then when the user presses save or exit to navigate away from the edit page do a comparison between the original values and the potentially changed ones
    then depending on the outcome of the comparison call an appropriate action
    Thanks in advance for your help
    David

    If you just want to know if the value has changed you can put it in a while loop and use shift registers to see if the value has changed.

  • How can i use isight camera to broadcast to web with Mac OS 10.4?

    I am using an iBook G4 running OS 10.4 as a printer server.  I have to do this to be able to print on my HP DeskJet 882c printer from computers running OS 10.6 and above (although I have not been able to get it to work with 10.8).
    I can connect an iSight camera to the iBook via FireWire.  Can I set that up to broadcast a video feed to a web site so I can visually monitor the area near the laptop and printer?

    jrmnewtonma wrote: How can i use isight camera to broadcast to web with Mac OS 10.4?
    You could use compatible older versions of QuickTime professional extensions for your Mac OS X version.
    This professional quality software is very powerful, and it will certainly stream any video you need.  However, it is not simple to use, so be prepared to do some research and study to get it configured and working.
    To use your iBook with its OS X 10.4, you will need QuickTime Broadcaster 1.5.3 
    and Darwin Streaming Server (v5.5.5) (if you need streaming server functions.) 
    Although I have never used it, QuickTime Streaming Server 4.1.1 might be a useable substitute for Darwin.
