Recording video with audio using FaceTime

Hi, I'm stupid, I need help, this is probably very simple but I can't seem to make it work!
I have a new iMac 27inch, it has Facetime built in, or should I say it has a camera built in.
Basically I want to record a video for Youtube of me playing the guitar, how do I do this, is this possible.
I tried using iMovie, recorded away, played it back but there was no sound to it?
Any help greatly appreciated. thanks

If you look in System Preferences (under the Apple menu) in the Sound pane, under the Input tab, what device is selected? If you make a noise do you see the Input level change?
Best of luck.

  • Flex, Record video and audio using web camera to computer temp, then upload

    Hello all,
    I'm not sure if this is 100% possible and have been looking around for  some time now for an answer but couldn't find one so have come here.
    Basically I want to create a flex application that sits in a web browser, that allows people to connect using a webcam and microphone, then record a short video that gets held temporarily on the computer until they finish and then it uploads the whole video to a server.
    I am able to achieve this by using a media server and streaming the video directly from the user to the server but this hinders the quality of the videos. On poor Internet connections the quality is rubbish.
    Is it at all possible to save video files to a computers temp memory and then upload them ?
    This would mean I can record the videos at a nice high quality and not have to worry about the Internet connection tampering with the quality.
    Many Thanks in advance !

    Thanks for the reply.  I knew it was not possible to write to the C drive or the users computer at all.
    But i really wanted to know if it was possible to write to a dataArray or byteArray within flex?
    I should of mentioned this sorry.

  • How do you record video with usb mic and have the audio from garageband be the sound when recording and not just your normal voice but garage band effects for youtube?

    How do you record video with usb mic and have the audio form garageband be apart of the video when recording, meaning the audio from garageband and echo  and not just your normal voice for youtube post?its not add the garageband audio its just normal voice from mic no  effects is going thru?

    Hi Life93,
    What you describe would be possible by recording your video, then removing the audio from it and adding audio from GarageBand once the video is in iMovie (I presume here that you are using iMovie for your video production. Other applications may need different methods.)
    See this thread on how to remove the audio from a clip in iMovie -

  • With OS X Yosemite 10.10.1, cannot record video with the iMac's built-in FaceTime HD camera. Cannot find the "Import" button in the toolbar.

    Just updated to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 and cannot find the "Import" button in the toolbar to record video on my iMac's Face Time HD built-in camera.  Trying to follow the steps found under "iMovie (2013): Record video with the FaceTime HD camera" on apple support posting but it seems to me that those were posted for another OS version.
    Any help would be appreciated!

    Hello Triunfo,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you are using the current version of iMovie, 10.0.6, you can follow the directions in the help article linked to below to import using the built-in FaceTime HD camera.

  • Problems Recording Video with Photo Booth

    Macbook Details:
    OS X Yosemite
    Version 10.10.2
    MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2011)
    Processor 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Photo Booth: Version 7.0 (724)
    Some background: It all started going downhill for my laptop when I got a "Service Battery" warning back in December. Thought it could possibly be a glitch from the new OS. In any case, they told me to wait it out till the Full Charge Capacity reaches the 2000s. It's currently at around 4225 and slowly steadily decreasing. I can't keep many applications open at one given time.
    The problem: Built-in camera is working fine with Skype, FaceTime, etc. Photo Booth pictures are fine as well. Simply unable to record any video with PB. It will sometimes record, but during recording, the image freezes. Upon playback, the image is frozen for the entire video, and audio lags or skips around. Today it froze and actually sat frozen all day while I continued to use other applications.
    Is there anything I can do??

    You can't record video with PhotoBooth, you can record video with iMovie, or you can record with Quicktime if you have the Pro version. I would suggest using iMovie, create an MPEG-4 project, record your footage, drag your recorded clips into the timeline, then choose the Share menu and choose Email.
    Baby footage will be on its way to the grandparents in no time!

  • Can we capture the video and audio using cam and microphone in Edge Animate?

    Hi Everyone,
    I got a new requirement from the client to create a HTML5 based functionality through which one can capture the video and audio using his web-cam/camcorder and microphone. I have researched on internet and found that there is api available (not reliable) http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/getusermedia/intro/ . I am not a coder by profession and use Edge animate to create HTML 5 based animations and stuff like that. Another problem which i have found that the api only works well with Chrome and Opera and not with Mozilla, IE..
    Can anybody help me out in this, please...
    Thanks & Warm Regards
    Vikas

    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,
    -Elaine

  • Aligning Video with Audio

    I am attempting to align video with audio of a clip from another camera. Is there an incremental way of aligning. At the moment when I move the video clip on the timeline it is not fine enough to to align.

    select the clip in the timeline then nudge it left and right using the trim keys, the comma and period keys, to nudge left and right by one frame at a time (the square brackets also do the same). if you hold down the shift key at the same time you'll get a multi-frame nudge ... the number of frames depends on your "multi-frame trim size" setting in your Final Cut Pro > User Preferences --> Editing tab
    of course, you can only nudge the clip if there is no other clip in the way, otherwise you will just get a "clip collision" ... if that is the case then you'll need to "slip" or "slide" the clip in place. exactly the same procedure/keystrokes as before, but you just need to select the slip or slide tool before you start pressing those trim keys.
    cheers

  • Program to remove sound from video and join video with audio file?

    With which program can I remove the sound of a video and join/sync the video file with another audio file?
    Thank you

    Can I suggest using something that will allow audio capture from the external mic. to start with. Then you will have a video with audio in sync, in a format that you can re encode into whatever format you wish.
    But, if you must do that. Dump the video from the handycam file, then put the mics audio file with it. ffmpeg -i video ffmpeg -i audio into whatever container and codecs that you want. You may have to adjust audio-video sync
    ffmpeg -i audio -itsoffset 0.1 -i video
    Search this forum and the web. There are hundreds of ffmpeg examples. And the ffmpeg man
    https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.html
    ffmpeg will do just about anything, but is a little daunting. Ask specific questions and you'll get specific answers. Or find a front end for it. I never use them.

  • Record video with built in iSight?

    My friend just got a new MacBook and we can't figure out if you can record video with the built in iSight. I know you can take pictures with Photo Booth, and from my research you can record video with the external iSight through iMovie. I figured you woud be able to do the same with the built in iSight, but when I open iMovie, it does not detect a camera. Can you not record video with the built in iSight or am I doing something wrong?
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4)  

    When you open iMovie look at the switch under the screen. You will see a camera on the left of the switch and scissors on left. Flip the switch to the camera and the built in camera should come on. Then on the screen it will say record with isight. That starts the record.

  • Import video with audio question

              When I start a new project and import a video with audio, then drag to the timeline , it puts the latter on audio 4 track instead of track 1. Why is it skipping 3 tracks?

    . Thanks Bill.  It was a mono track and the 3 above were stereo.  I deleted the 3 empty tracks and now it is below the video directly.  What I am also wondering about is why the video track can be widened vertically,by dragging the bottom border and the previous audio 1 track could be also, but this one can not.  Is it not possible to see the waveform as I can when I imported an audio file in a different project?  That one was expandable veritically.There was no video in that one.

  • Software for recording video with built in i-sight for new macbooks mbp?

    Does any software exist that will allow a macbook or a macbook pro user to record video with their built in isight camera at the top of the screen? If so, let me know. I need to document countless hours of reading the forums...

    iMovie will allow you to record from your built in iSight as well.
    Lastly, Conference Recorder will allow you to record iChat video conversations. It can be found here: http://www.ecamm.com/mac/conferencerecorder/
    This should also help: http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/EZJim/EZJimpage7.html
