Simultaneous DV tape recording and FCP capture?

I tired to record a DV tape in a Canon HV 20 while capturing the image to my laptop with FCP, but the process kept aborting and I got a message that the tape had reached its end. I was using the Firewire NTSC preset. I could capture as a non-controllable device, but not while the camcorder was recording.
Is there a workaround to allow me to record to tape and simultaneously capture time-coded DV?
Thanks!

Red Truck is right, this should work for you. Other things to consider...
Have you tried NTSC FireWire Basic...works best with Canon cams.
Are you hitting record on the cam, before Capture Now? Even though you likely won't have matching timecode using non-controllable device, you'll want to have enough 'headroom' recorded on tape.
Does that camera record anything other than DV? If so, make sure your camera setup matches your capture presets.
Make sure you place a check in "Limit Capture Now To:", along with a duration slightly longer than your intended capture. (found in System Settings/Scratch Disk tab)
Also, you say you're recording to your laptop?...is this passing to an external HD?

Sony v1u camera's hard drive recorder and fcp 6

I bought the hard drive recorder with the V1U HDV Sony camera. The files called M2T's i think are not supported by FCP. Do you know if they are in the FCP 6? Or if the 24pA setting still has to go through a CinemaTools reverse telecine to be seen.

I will let wiser minds than I comment. However, do you have a choice? Either FC can read the format or not. With me, I go from MPEG 2 to PAL DV, it seems to be OK. But I am not doing professional stuff.

Voice/tape recorder for meeting

I need a good voice tape recorder for the recording of meetings and the later transcribing of minutes. The meeting room is a large conference-style room and normally there are about 25 attendees talking from various areas of the room. I have an old--more than 7-8 years--Sony Cassette-Corder (model TCM-40DV) that needs to be replaced. Any advice?

How can I achive sound using external tape recorder

I have connected a tape recorder to the motherboard of the Mac OS X (10.4.11, Power PC G5), and I am trying to listen to a cassette tape through the external computer speakers.
So far I have not been successful, but there is visual evidence that the connection is getting through. More specifically, the input level in the sound window is visually active or flickers when I press play on the tape recorder, and the same activity on the input level stops when I stop the tape recorder.
Here is a summary of the audio troubleshooting I have done in trying to solve this problem:
1. Ensured the mute button is not check-marked within the input and output windows
2. Ensured the input and output volume slider levels are moved fully to the right
3. Noted that volume in the external speakers works for a variety of other sources, including online audio and video podcasts, online radio, and all iTunes audio sources.
4. Verified that there is audio on the cassette tape itself by playing it on stand alone cassette tape player.
Any additional troubleshooting tips are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi! You probably need a "play through" app such as LINEIN or another one called Audiocorder to do what you want. Tom

Recording and convering audio tapes - How & which app?

I have a USB audio capture device buoght tome time ago but it doesn't register on my Macbook Air. What kind of device and programme/ap should I use to audio-copy and preserve as a file on my MacBook the contents of a small number of precious old-fashioned tapes?

Hi,
Some more info on what you have would be good, what type / make and model of tape player and USB audio capture device have you got?
and when you say your USB audio capture device "doesn't register on my Macbook Air" do you mean it doesn't register in sound settings (system preferences>sound)
Personally
I use a different cable to connect to my computer (link to cable here) just depends what the output options of your player...
The program I use for recording is Audacity (download link here) it's an ok free open source program.

Old records and cassette tapes

I have a number of old LP records and cassette tapes that I would like to import into Itunes. Is this possible and what would I need to do it ? Any help would be appreciated

One way is to connect your Cassette deck or turntable (through the Tape out sockets of your amplifier) to the audio in socket of your computer. On the computer you'll need audio editing software to capture and edit the resulting long file into individual tracks that can be added to the iTunes Library. There are a number of commercial programs for this (I use Sound Studio for the Mac). If want to try out the process first you could try the open source program Audacity which has Linux, Mac and Windows versions at this link: Audacity. If your Mac came with it installed you could also check out Garageband, I've never used it myself so I'm not sure of it's capabilities.
In addition to the software you'll need RCA to 3.5 mm audio plug cables to connect the Tape Out sockets of your amplifier to the audio inputs of your computer. There's a short guide to recording here: How to record from vinyl and cassette to a computer also from the BBC Copying Vinyl Recordings to CD
If your Mac or PC hasn't got an audio in socket you can have a look at the Griffin iMic which connects to a USB port and comes with some software of it's own: iMic USB audio interface

Capturing error records and messages in BDC ?

Hi Experts,
I am recording a infotype using BDC recording and I got successfull updation in recording.But I dont want the output message generated by BDC recording which is obtained by perform bdc_transaction using 'pa30' generated by recording.
I want to capture the success pernr values and its correponding messages in a seperate internal table.Then want to capture error pernr values and its messages in a seperate internal table.
Give me sample coding to fetch those values. Think that my internal table which contains pernr values for recording is int_0007.from this internal table I am recording values.Give me coding to collect success anf error pernr values and its messges in seperate internal table.
Thanks,

I'm trying to record only part of my screen using my Quicktime 10.0, but once I press record in the "Screen recording" feature it automatically starts recording and doesn't give me the option to choose what part of the screen to capture. What gives?

QuickTime version 10 can only record the entire screen.
10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 offer part of the screen recording.

Recording and playing sound input from mic simultaneously in iphone/ipad

I want to simultaneously record and play the sound from a mic in iphone. As thecricket commentory application.
Please provide me a solution for this.
Is this possible in iOs.

This probably isn't going to sound very helpful, for which I apologise in advance, but I'm afraid it's the truth...
The only way you stand any way of doing any of this is by using ASIO4ALL, which can aggregate different drivers from multiple devices. But I don't rate your chances too highly, I'm afraid - USB mics have long been the problem child of computer-based audio. On top of that, you are trying to get sounds in and out of a separate device at the same time - not only that, but it's a Creative Labs gamer's device and they are second only to USB mics in terms of the 'difficult' stakes - search this forum!
A much, much better way to attempt to do this would be to use a sensible ASIO external device with sufficient inputs, and a mic that plugs into it, not a USB one. That way you could route the inputs and outputs appropriately, and use the device's monitoring so that you could monitor what you need to. I wouldn't attempt to do anything like this any other way, I'm afraid. Another approach (which can be made to work well) is to use an external mixer to do most of the work - often it's easier to set up the monitoring on these. You can get mixers with the appropriate interface built-in, and they don't cost a fortune either. Mackie and Behringer make suitable devices.

In FCP. Trying to record voiceover. Go to Window, Record Audio, see the record window and FCP quits in about 2 seconds.

Trying to record audio voiceover. Go to Window, Select Record Audio, see the record window and FCP quits in about 2 seconds. Can't get started??

I think you've got the right driver selected, otherwise it wouln't work at all. The single most obvious thing to ask you though (I'm sorry if this is too basic) is where you have the pan controls set to? To get each mic to record on a single channel, you'd have to have one panned hard left and the other panned hard right. If you leave them both panned dead centre, that's exactly what you get - both mics on both channels.

RTP stream - record and listen simultaneously ...

Hi!
I would like to record and listen RTP stream simultaneously, but I don't know how... I can record to a file OR listen in headphone but just separately.
If i create a datasink for recording on a port I cannot use that port to listen. But in this case how can I listen the audio stream on headphone?
Maybe the good solution would be for me if I could clone the stream but I cannot do, because I get an exception
javax.media.NoProcessorException: Cannot find a Processor for: com.ibm.media.protocol.CloneablePushBufferDataSource@1d8957fThis is the code:
DataSource ds = Manager.createCloneableDataSource(Manager.createDataSource(media_locator));
processor = Manager.createRealizedProcessor(new ProcessorModel(ds, formats, outputType));Has anybody got any idea?
Thanks!

I'd point you in this direction initially.

Please help me with recording and playing audio simultaneously!!!

Right now I can either play the incoming stream OR record it. I tried making Clones for datasource like :
DataSource clone1 = Manager.createCloneableDataSource(originalSource);
Then I pass it to these 2 classes:
new playThread(clone1).run;
new recordThread(clone1).run;
playThread is a Thread class that will take the cloned datasource and then plays it while recordThread will record the incoming datasource. Here is what happens when i run them one after another:
When I run playThread before recordThread I get ACM driver error. But if I run the recordThread before playThread the playThread's playerWindow shows up and plays for a split second then stops; The recordThread does record all the incoming stream though... Here are my questions....
1. Anyone know what my problem is? is it resource alocation? Threading problem?
2. Did I use the clone datasource correctly? I tried making clone1, clone2 but those didnt work well either...Should I do anything to the clones for record and play? all I did was pass them to the 2 classes and those classes just use them straight out without proccessing or anything...
Please help me out!!!! thanks a bunch!

i dont think it is... i tried the clone thing but samething happened... it might be a Thread problem since when i put those together sometimes record runs sometimes player runs... and at the end i get "ERROR while querying ACM driver's information" error..... i am really confused...
DataSource clone1 = Manager.createCloneableDataSource(originalSource);
DataSource clone2 = Manager.createCloneableDataSource(clone1);
playerThread play= new playerThread(clone1);
recordThread record= new recordThread(clone2);
record.start();
broad.start();
anyone can help is appreciated

Recording RTMFP P2P stream by sending simultaneous stream to FMS (and other things...)

Only just getting started on this whole domain of learning, so go easy!
If I set up a P2P video/audio chat (similar to the sample VideoPhone thing on the Cirrus site), can I get the stream from both parties to send to a server at the same time so that I can record it? If so, would I have to use a FMS to stream it to and perform the recording (and if so which version could I get away with)? Are there any (preferably free, or just tutorialised) solutions for the recording side of things?
Currently it seems like the only option for doing the P2P thing is to use Stratus/Cirrus unless I use FMS4 Enterprise. Is that correct?
Is there any example code out there that can help? Has anyone got any experience of how effective this kind of situation can be, in terms of quality of the stream and recording? Does any of this make sense?
The Enterprise version of FMS is "Call for price": can anyone give me ball-park figures?
Would appreciate any advice or pointers on these very general questions.

can I get the stream from both parties to send to a server at the same time so that I can record it?
     I really do not know how one can do that - it would be like creating separate stream to server and replicating same data which you send to peer and i do not know how useful it would be - again it will increase the load on server which we are trying to avoid using P2P
If so, would I have to use a FMS to stream it to and perform the recording (and if so which version could I get away with)?
     I think above answer takes care of this. I am not expert on P2P - so someone can correct me if i am completely off
Are there any (preferably free, or just tutorialised) solutions for the recording side of things?
     Not something i am aware off.
Currently it seems like the only option for doing the P2P thing is to use Stratus/Cirrus unless I use FMS4 Enterprise. Is that correct?
     Yes - as of now only FMS4 Enterprise edition supports P2P

Help Recording from FCP to Canon XHA1 Mini DV

Hi there. I am totally new to this forum, but I am desperate.
I shot on a XHA1 camera, captured and edited on FCP and for some reason, cannot, absolutely cannot figure out how to record it (for backup) on to the camera I shot it with. (miniHD tape) It was shot hi def, widescreen format. 1080i 60.
I have tried so many different settings, both with the camera, and FCP that I am totally confused.
I never had this problem with my GL1 that I used for years....
Please please please, any help?
