Recording with Quicktime and adding effect

Hi all. I am recording Firewire video in Quicktime Player. The audio comes from a seperate source, through the line-in. To synchronize, I need to delay the audio by 600 ms. Does anyone have a method of doing so? I have an AU delay that would work. I just can't figure out how to apply it to the live lin-in.
Thanks very much for any help.

I'll pass on some things I discovered, in case anyone has this question or anyone can add to this.
I succeeded to some degree, by doing this:
1. Installed Soundflower; this creates virtual sound inputs and outputs, so sound can be passed between applications.
2. In GarageBand, I created a real instrument.
3. Set input to Line-in
4. Added the Voxengo Delay AU (http://www.voxengo.com/product/sounddelay) which is free and simple. The Apple AUDelay repeats the sound as well, rather than just delaying it (unless I missed something).
5. Set GarageBand's sound output to Sountflower, and turned monitoring on.
6. In QT player, new movie recording, with audio input set to "Soundflower".
The good news is that I can save the GarageBand document, which can be opened and everything is immediately running. But, it would be nice if there was a way to add an effect to any input directly so that I only have to use one application.
Any suggestions to streamline this? It is for an installation which will be run by students, so the fewer steps needed to set this up the better.

Hi,
Both my iChat 4 and my iChat 5 Save Video Snapshots to the Desktop.
There are no settings in iChat's Preferences to change this.
There are no Settings in the version of iPhoto I have that can "grab" the pic from iChat.
The Pic is Saved as a .jpeg
I do have some jpegs edited in Photoshop Elements 6 which do appear in iPhoto as and black items In Photos but display when double clicked. (Full Window)
This seems to be an issue with the way the pic is saved by one app and not displayed properly in the other.
I am curious how you are getting the pics direct to iPhoto ?

When I choose record audio or screenshots, I get a little further, but as soon as I select my ipad as the source I get the same error message.

You don't need to be a developer for this to work. I get the same error. Just one more thing on the list that make me upset more and more with Apple. Things just don't work out of the box like they used to.
This new feature was to be included with iOS 8 and Yosemite.

Internal Microphone not working with Quicktime and some other apps, yet it does for Skype.

Internal Microphone not working with Quicktime and some other apps, yet it does for Skype.
Microphone works fine with Quictime on another mac, so I do know how to use it. The one where it is not working (A) had an external microphone and camera attached earlier, and indeed it does work with that external microphone, but not with the internal microphone selected; and (B) had RealPlayer installed previously.
Any suggestions, please?

Problems with Quicktime and DV25

Can any one help me? I keep getting a big white stripe at the right of the frame when exporting from HD (XDCAM HD 422) to DV. It makes itself visible when you watch the DV in full screen mode. It covers the whole screen from top to bottom. Any Ideas?

Yes, I have this problems too.
Since I have done this Updates, the Audio Sync is not OK and my Songs going demadged by using -Audio Groups-.
Before this Updates, my recordings were ever perfekt.
In the last record-session - everything sounds good while recording, but the playback was in a absolutly wrong timing. First I thought it is just a 2 sec. delay in the records, but NO it becomes slower and slower and in the end of this audiofile it was totaly crazy.
I tried to record again, but nothing worked. It was on Tiger 10.4.6, Logic Pro 7.1.0 and Quicktime 7.1 with RME HDSP 9652. Now I'll try the new Updates Logic 7.1.1 with Quicktime 7.1.1. Maybe this solves my problems. If not, then I only can try to go back in the versions of Tiger, Logic Pro and Quicktime.
I am wondering why nobody else got this problems, because I have this problems on two PMacs G4 + G5. Both very good PMacs. They worked very well before this Updates.

Resizing a video file recorded with quicktime

Hi
I have recorded my screen with Quicktime for 2 hours and the file went upto 12 GB. I want to resize that file as it is a waste to keep the file with that size. Can anyone help me in resizing the file.

If only part of the screen is of issue then use MPEG Streamclip (free) , set the export (to MPEG-4 and select an iTunes preset like iPod or iPhone) to the same size as your screen (1900 X1200 etc.), then use crop, which is a bit of a hit or miss proposition to crop left, right, top, bottom to save and export just the part you want to see.
There is an export preview in Streamclip so you can see in seconds what you are going to get and estimating the cropping points is not that hard, as you know how big the screen is and if you want 1/3 in the middle you set left and right crop to be 1/3 of the width each.
Note the end result is scaled down to the crop settings so it is not 1900X1200 using this example, it might be 600X400 etc. Just the part you want, life size.

Distorted recording with QuickTime 7 using USB Audio CODEC

I am running Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.8 with all the latest update from Software Update which includes QuickTime 7.1.3.
I am using QuickTime Broadcaster to stream back to itself (loopback) and record to disk at the same time. The input audio device is set to USB Audio CODEC (the default driver that comes with Mac OS X Tiger, and I am using an Alesis MultiMix 16USB mixer on a PowerMac Dual Core G5). I am using MPEG-4 Audio compression (no Video) of 16-bit, 44.1kHz and 128kbps (stereo).
The problem is that sometimes I get recordings (ranging from 1.5 hours to 2.75hours long) with distortion. Here is a short 20-second audio clip with distortion-free audio for about 6 seconds and then distortion sets in:
http://www.netmedia.com.sg/files/SampleDistortion20s.mov
Whether it overlays on top of the original audio or replaces it, I cannot tell, but the transition is instant and smooth with no audible clicks or pops. The distortion can come in and go randomly. For example, I had one recording with distortion coming in at about 2 minutes plus and it remained until about 2hr10min when the distortion went away. Sometimes it didn't go away; other times it came in about an hour later. I also had once where the distortion last only for about 6 minutes somewhere in the middle of a 2.25 hours recording...all in all, it occurs at random. And I do get distortion-free recordings.
This problem also occurs on an iMac G5 with a Alesis MultiMix 12USB mixer, and in another Vara Software's Videocue PRO software which uses QuickTime for recording and playback. QuickTime 7.0.x and all versions of 7.1 also had this problem.
Because of this problem, I may need to use a convoluted method to stream and record to disk via QuickTime. By the way, I also tried streaming to another local subnet IP address just as a troubleshooting without success.

I too am having distortion problem (Sorry no solution here).
Using OS 10.4.8, QT7.1.3, & Adobe Premiere 6.5 on a G4.
After I down loaded QT 7.1.3, my problems started. Is this when your problems started too?
Audio is in "slow motion" sound when editing. On rare occations, it sounds correct for 10 sec or so but sync is out and eventually reverts to "slow motion" sound. Even more bazar, when viewing a clip in a thumbnail preview, it works fine. So I know the orginal is good.
My contention is QT is causing this. All I want is my previous version of QT back. I think this might fix your problem too. Unfortunately, there is no reinstall that I can find that takes QT 7.1.3 off and puts QT 7.1.1or2. The reinstall QT 7.0.3 which is on the Apple website will not restall.
Looking for a reintall that will take QT 7.1.3 off, help anyone?

Multi-track recording with GB1 and GB2

I recently purchased a new RME Fireface 800 and want to begin recording multi-track audio.
I plan to purchase DP in the future but have spent my $ allocation for now and want to be able to at least get started using something simple and cheap like GB. I currently have GB1 and have learned from experience that it does not support multi-track recording. If GB2 does I will UG.
Has anyone successfully recorded 8 tracks simultaneously with GB2 and if so how?

A problem with Itunes and adding music to library

I've been using my Ipod touch for about a month now (recently purchased). I first connected my Ipod to my laptop, because my desktop needed a format and reinstall of the OS, so I wanted to be slightly organized with it. I finally got around to formatting the desktop to WinXP pro, and have all my programs installed successfully.
Here's the issue:
With my laptop, I could start Itunes, and I did NOT have every song I have as my library, only a few songs that I personally selected and added to library (by clicking on "CTRL+Highligh" or File-->Add file to library). When I did that, I could hold down CTRL and highlight up to 15-20 songs at once, and have them show up in my library as added, then sync them to my Touch.
Since coming to my desktop with my Ipod, and moving all my music from my laptop over to my desktops C: drive, I've hooked up my Ipod and (of course installed Itunes) authorized my desktop for my Touch.
I begain selecting the music I wanted...My directory setup is as follows:
My Music: folders inside of
Itunes directory
Mp3 Directory
My Itunes settings are selected as My Music-->Itunes as the folder. I open Itunes, select add song to library, and it only allows me to highlight UP to 5 songs at once and add them. Any number between 1 and 5 songs will add to my library just fine. If i try to select over 5 songs, like 6-20 songs at once (using CTRL) it does nothing, and doesnt place any of the selected songs in my library. It will allow me to select individual songs just fine, and like I said, I can select UP TO 5 songs, highlighted with CTRL, and they show up just fine (all 5 songs will show in the library.)
Any number of songs selected with CTRL over 5, does nothing.
I dont understand why, when I used this very technique on my laptop, and I could select up to 30 songs at once (using ctrl+highlight) and they would ALL show up as they are supposed to. Everything is nearly the same on here, my settings are all pretty much the same as my laptop's settings were...anyone have any ideas? this has been bugging me all morning, and I've spent so much time fooling with it that I only have 56 songs out of 6,000 on my Ipod touch (I also decided to rid myself of music I didnt listen to and restored/formatted my ipod so I could start over)...I need more than 56 songs, but I dont want to do them 1 or 2 at a time, then go back and have to hit CTRL+O or File--->add file to library.
What causes me to be limited to 5 or less songs per time to add to my library?

Because I wasn't aware that the library could be "taken" from pc to pc. The processor on my desktop is also hyper-threaded, which simulates it having 2 processors..and moving file NAMES, not moving the files into the library is NOT a processor intensive function. It's actually just taking the file location - directory, and name, and making it show in the library..not moving the actual file itself and making a copy of it in the Itunes folder. I do NOT allow itunes to make copies of files that it keeps in the library (I uncheck allow Itunes to organize and make copies of files added to library).
So adding to my library is as simple as making the library show the file name, and pointing to the location on disk, not actually making a copy of the file in the background and placing it into a folder inside the Itunes folder.
Had I KNOWN I could take my library off the desktop and move it, I would've made it easier on myself, but I thought I posted that I just recently bought this Ipod touch (about a month ago).

STILL no real answer to problems with QuickTime and Flash Player

The reply to Problems with QuickTime really didn't answer or solve the basic problem. Some sites to work at all require you to have working Flash Player 8 so when I try to use these sites I get the QuickTime logo with a question mark and then nothing. For all you experts on Apple and Mac; what is going on? Apple is the parent of QuickTime and I assume they want their customers happy with their work. So why is it so hard for these apparently small updates to their programs causing entire sites being blocked off? I have OS x 10.3.9 on a G4 iMac 855mHrz .... It seems that even though we, the customer by default become Apples program testers;the actual programers are never given the go ahead to actualy look at these problem posts. Has anyone ever gotten a solution for a problem they posted here from one of the programmers of the product? It would be nice to know we aren't left to our own devices when it comes to program gliches from the source. If the powers that be in apple are watching and willing to help; any time now is a good time to just but in on the conversation and help solve some of the problems us little people keep on running into.--------------
While online I run into sites that will NOT work without Flash Player 8 (which costs over $150.00) which is told to the viewer with a QuickTime logo with a question mark in it.
This leads the web surfer to try to upgrade or at least investigate Flash Player in their computer and it's version.When said web surfer looks at Flash player upgrade for bucks and the fact that in some way it is tied to QuickTime, web surfer gets real curious. Do the web masters for those sites know that their site is now blocked off? If any major portion ( say 30 or 40 % ) of the web surfing crowd is required to purchase an upgrade to Flash Player even though it doesn't look like Apple is the parent of said Flash Player; those web masters are going to be upset with Apple. Their income is tied to actuall access and browsing of a site, even if it is only to actually just get the Home page. With no access to the site due to no Flash Player 8, the web master is going to find those all important Hits going down to nil. -------
This post is way to broad for any one answer so I don't really expect one. But for you people who have run into similar problems with other programs and sites; I would love to hear if you got any help from other web surfers or from the parent people of those programs and/or sites. I know that my isp earthlink has helped out with problems faster than other groups involved. Anyway.. Any help or comment on this post ( or gripe if you prefer ) would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Sorry, but you are completely misinformed. Flash Player 8 doesn't cost one red cent; it's only the Flash creation package that you have to pay for. You can download the free Flash Player 8 here.
QuickTime can natively handle some Flash content, which is why with the lack of the Flash player the browser defaults to the QT plugin. But Flash 8 is a relatively new format from Macromedia and I'm not sure QT supports it yet. Install the Flash 8 player and things should work just fine.
And just FYI, for questions about the Mac version of QuickTime, you'll be better off asking them in the QuickTime for Mac forum.

How to record with vocals and guitar live?

Filter records with month and date

Hi,
i have records as follows in the table.
custno trn_dt amount
1 01-jan-06 100
1 10-jan-06 200 --->
1 15-feb-06 300
2 15-dec-06 111
2 15-jan-06 222 --->
2 01-fen-06 333
If i specify the runtime parameter as JAN-06 the output of the report should be with 2 records indicated with arrows above.
the query should pick up the record with the highest date for a specific customer.
in the above example for customer "1" 10-jan-06 is highest date and for customer "2" 15-jan-06 is the highest date.
hope the requirement is clear.
thanks in advance

SELECT custno, trn_dt, amount
FROM TABLE
WHERE (custno,trn_dt) IN
(SELECT custno, MAX(trn_dt)
FROM TABLE
GROUP BY custno)
There are many examples on this in SQL and PL/SQL forum.

Live Recording with mics and Software Instruments

Has anyone used the Software Instruments in GB to play live, while recording the Software Instruments direct and live (Real Instruments) as well?
I'm thinking about getting a FirePod or similar, to record my band live using several mics and playing and recording Software Instruments all at once. I'm concerned that this set up might have too much latency and make the Software Instruments not playable with my band live, and perhaps all this might make my iMac G5 bog down.
Anyone have any experiences with any or all of this kind of use of GarageBand with an audio/MIDI interface?
iMac G5 20" Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Hey Hang,
Sorry if I'm talking in circles. That post was early!
I'd like to be able to use the built-in Software Instruments live and record that MIDI as well as the live tracks at the same time. However, I could deal with using my own keyboards for the live sounds and just record the MIDI from them while recording the live tracks too, if that makes the system work. For instance, if the part I wanted was a piano, and the Software Instrument piano used too much processor power, I could "record" with a smaller instrument that wasn't such a hog. Then, in mixing, I'd use the Software Instrument I wanted for the keyboard part. Live, my real keyboard could provide the piano for all to hear.
Am I making sense yet?
I suppose one thing I could do is something I was thinking of doing already. I could get one of the $40 MIDI-to-USB interfaces to record with the band. Right now, I'm just using a stereo mic set up to record stereo into GB. I could add MIDI and see what happens. Heck, I could enable 6 more real instrument tracks at the same time and see what happens! Then I would know it was possible on the iMac at least.
