Thunderbolt as a HDMI video capture port?

Just got a late 2012 Mac mini with a 2.6GHz i7 and 16GB of ram. My question is, will the thunderbolt support as a video capture port from my XF100 Canon camera? I have a Thunderbolt to HDMI adaptor... Without having to spend another $300 on a Blackmagic device.
Thanks for any help.

Using a Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter forces the Thunderbolt
port into Mini Display port mode and will only output video.
Video input with this connection scheme is not possible.
You will need some form of video capture device if
you want to do direct recording to the Mini.

HDMI video capture card

I need to specify a HDMI video capture card to work with Adobe Flash for the DCO application on a Dell T3500 PC. The system also includes a Black Magic Designs H.264 Pro Recorder for recording training sessions. Can anyone recommend a card that will work?
Thanks

No problem. Be warned, though. As far as I know, M series camcorders are only available on secondhand markets right now, and if you happen to find, say, a Vixia HF M500 new and unopened, the after-market price might be a little higher.

Hdmi video capture

You can't increase your RAM on the Air.

I have a new MAC MINI and I want to install a second monitor. I have one connected to the HDMI and it works. I can't get a signal to the other one. It is connected from the thunderbolt to its HDMI port. How can I make it work?

Could be a bad cable or bad Thunderbolt port.
You have 90 days of free telephone support on a new device. You can call them at 1-800-MY-APPLE. Have your Mini's serial number handy
You can also make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

How can I asociate a DataSource to a Port for my Video Capture Card???

Hi!
First of all, I sorry for my bad english.
I'm trying to manage ports of my Video Capture Card.It's 4 ports. I believe I can manage it cause running this code I found in a web, I can see a panel called Video Source that contain all my capture devices (the capturer card too) and the four ports. Ports have been asociate like SVIDEO, TVTUNNER, COMPOSITE, COMPOSITE2. I'm trying use PortControl, but I don't ontain nothing. I'm learning java for around only three weeks, I don't know very much.
My question: How can I asociate a DataSource to a Port for my Video Capture Card and so manage 4 streamings data . Should I work Port Control over a medialocator, a datastream, a player...?
I'm looking forward your answers. I'm very sad cause this problem.
Thanx for advance!

Video capture with Sat Pro M70: What ports and leads can I use?

I want to edit my home movies on my Sat Pro M70 using WXP Pro (win dvd or movie maker). I want to capture the video from my panasonic camcorder which has digital tapes. what ports can I use and what leads do I need? I am desperate to edit my recent wedding video to put onto DVD and post to my mum. The panasonic website has been ignoring me! Any advice anyone ??

Well, as far as I know this unit has only an S-video out port. In this case you can connect the notebook to the TV and watch the picture from notebook on TV but its not possible to receive any signals from TV or any other device on notebook.
To receive the signals you need a composite port or an s-video in port.
However, if the camcorder has a firewire port so you can send the digital files thru the firewire connection. But this should only works with digital files which are saved on the camcorder.

1080p live video capture from camcorder to MacBook

Is there a device or adapter that will connect the 1080p from a video camcorder's HDMI out to a MacBook's thunderbolt or usb port with QuickTime receiving the camcorder's video and audio when "New Movie Recording" is selected from that application?
Or more succinctly, can I turn my 1080p camcorder into a webcam?
Camcorders have better image quality than webcams (okay, maybe not necessarily JVC, but Canon's do) and more features, such as 38x zoom. And my MacBook has a much nicer and bigger screen than that little LCD fold-out piece all camcorders have. So combining the superior video capture of the camcorder with the superior display capability of the MacBook along with the advantage of live recording directly to the MacBook's harddrive (no intermediate SD card file transfer step from device to device) would result in an enhanced video capturing experience. All that is required is some adapter that will take HDMI from the camera and translate it into something the MacBook will see as a webcam (usb or thunderbolt). So where do I find such an adapter?

What brand and model is your camcorder?
From this we can determine what format it outputs in, because you capture with the output format from your camcorder. You then, after editing, use PRE to Share your project as MPEG2.
These are the import video sources supported by PRE:
If your camcorder manual is telling you that it outputs MPEG2 (this is a standard definition format) try the 'DVD Camcorder or PC DVD Drive' format.
Cheers,
Neale

Elgato Video Capture crashes.

Has anyone had any success with the Elgato Video Capture and the issue of conflicting USB ports? 3.0 vd 2.0.

If you use iMovie to do the digitizing (and you could use other apps, it's the iMovie Discussion Group, so I'm using that as an example) you open the Import from camera. The Video digitizing device you use will be considered a 'camera' in this context. When you capture video it will ask you 'where do you want to save this stuff'. At that point if you have already have the hard drive attached and have recognized it in iMovie and also gone to the View Menu > Group Events by Disk, then your external hd (whatever it is) will be recognized as a legitimate place to store Events AS THEY ARE DIGITIZED. This is a function of iMovie, not the Mac OS or the digitizing hardware you decide to purchase. So take what the Apple sales folks and Best Buy sales folks have told you and also consider they aren't using iMovie as regularly as participants in this Discussion Group.
Also know this, your Video Tape will playback from your VCR in Real Time (meaning 2 hours of tape material will take 2 hours to playback and subsequently 2 hours to digitize as it playsback). That is the limiting factor in ALL of this. You can digitize faster than the tapes will play back. So hard drive speed only comes into play when your moving stuff AROUND (internal <-> external). If you are digitizing straight to External HD you don't have to move anything at all. So maybe neither the hard drive nor the Mac processor speed will make any difference in this case. Save some more money, and buy more medium quality, medium speed hard drives as opposed to a Thunderbolt SSD?! Some more things to consider I guess.

How to connect a video capture device to Satellite M30X 127

I'm going around in circles trying to find a video capture device that will function with a laptop and would be grateful for advice. By way of example, I'm now looking at the 'Canopus ADVC-110', although still looking around (but not Pinnacle, who seem to have a terrible reputation for capture items).
Problems include:
1. Main problem is - many video capture external devices require a 'line-in' to PC for good quality audio transfer. This laptop doesn't have a line in, only the mike and headphone jacks. In addition, I've also tried a few RCA pins in the 3.5mm microphone/headphones jack and they were too small. How to solve the problem of getting audio from vcr to my PC?
2. The ADVC-110 connects to the PC via Firewire (and S-video), but is a SIX-pin type. M30X is a FOUR-pin type. Are there adapters available?
3. Some capture programmes seem to require huge capacity of RAM. Is a laptop going to be suitable to do the job? (I simply want to capture old vhs tapes from vcr to PC, then burn to DVD with Nero 7 or similar).
Thanks in advance!

Hello
You are right! You must use external device for signal transfer to your notebook. I dont know where you have this info but I have good experiences with Pinnacle product. For data transfer I have used USB port.
'Canopus ADVC-110 is not known to me but I dont see any reason why this should not work well. Use delivered software for video capturing and there should not be any problem.
Only thing is that after recording the whole video material must be prepared for burning and unit need a lot of power to do this well und fast. When you buy this and want to use on right way I recommend you to expand RAM to 1GB.
Compatible memory modules for your Satellite M30x are:
PC2700 512MB (PA3312U-1M51)
PC2700 1024MB (PA3313U-1M1G)

Mac mini (late 2012) HDMI video going blank randomly in Yosemite 10.10.1; sometimes comes back on with snowy screen

Wow, this reminds me of what happened with Mavericks 10.9.0 until 10.9.3 and later were released and fixed this problem.
My monitor is a Dell S2440L connected to my Mac mini late 2012 via an HDMI cable.
The monitor goes blank randomly and sometimes a snowy screen like you would see when watching a UHF
channel on an old CRT TV shows up when the video comes back on. This happens while in the OS.
I also have power management problems again with computer not sleeping properly and my Magic Mouse
being able to wake up the computer despite "Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer" being unchecked.
I also have Wake for network access, power nap and start up after power failure unchecked as well.
Computer sleep and display sleep are set to "never" as I always had it with Mavericks.
These problems occurred after shutting down my Mac and restarting it this morning.
I know using a VGA cable will fix it but I don't want to do that.
Sorry for sounding frustrated but I'm not alone. So many people are having the same issue
of HDMI video blanking out while in the OS.
I love the look of Yosemite but wish I was back with Mavericks 10.9.5 where everything worked
flawlessly and I really mean flawlessly. It was magical. Not a single problem.
I guess we have to wait for 10.10.2 or 10.10.3.
I don't want to go back to Mavericks but if my screen keeps blanking out then my computer is of
no use for work or multimedia.
I'm sorry about the rant.
If anyone has figured out a workaround until Apple can issue another point release, please let me know.
I already tried resetting the SMC and NVRAM several times to no avail.
Thanks in advance.
I appreciate any help.
Paul

Plug-in for StarTech Video Capture Card

StarTech'website shows their ECHDCAP ExpressCard video capture card supports Adobe Premiere CS5 plug-in for editing. I talked to a Tech at StarTech and he said the card should work with Premiere Pro CS5 & CS6 but StarTech doesn't support it, and he didn't know where I can get the Premiere SC5 plug-in. Does anyone know what plug-in StarTech is referring to, and where I can get it?
If anyone is currently using the ECHDCAP capture card or the StarTech USB3HDCAP Capture Device, please let me know how you got it working with Premiere Pro.

Ann & Bill,
I probably should have given you more information. This application is different than what I usually use Premiere for.
One of my hobbies is shooting long range rifles at 1,000 yards. I'm trying to capture the point of impact on steel targets 500 to 1,000 yards away. I've attached my XA10 to my Swarovski spotting scope so I can see the impact. I've been transferring the video from the XA10 to my computer through the USB port, then importing the video into Premiere and adding it to the sequence. By the time I get all this done, then scrub the video to find the frame with the initial BANG, then count 41 frames forward for 870 yards, then scrub the video again to find the impact point, the wind and several other conditions have changed which affect my next shot. this makes for a long and tedious day.
The bottom line is... I'm trying to streamline my workflow so I can capture the video from my XA10 straight to a Premiere sequence, then start scrubbing the video to find the point of impact.
The reason I'm using Premiere is because none of my other programs allow me to scrub with audio.
I would prefer not to spend $600 for a Maxtor MX02 Mini and ExpressCard adapter; especially since it requires 110 volts and that's not available at the shooting range.
If you know of another way to do this, or can recommend an inexpensive program that will allow me to capture audio and video from my XA10 and scrub it with audio, I'd sure appreciate hearing about it.
Thank you,
Brian Scura...

Please help! Not able to set Video input Port(S-Video or Composite)on Linux

Hi
I am using JMF2.1.1e(Linux performance pack) for video capturing on Linux OS. I want to set video input port(S-Video or composite) through my application. I am using the following code:
     if ( dataSource != null )
          arrControls = dataSource.getControls ();
     if ( arrControls != null )
          nCount = arrControls.length;
     System.out.println("No. of Controls: " + nCount);
     for ( i = 0; i < nCount; i++ )
          if ( arrControls[i] == null )
               continue;
          if ( !(arrControls[i] instanceof Control) )
               continue;
          componentControl = ((Control)arrControls).getControlComponent ();
          System.out.println("ComponentControl : " + componentControl);
          if ( componentControl == null )
               continue;
But, i am getting No. of Controls: 0 (Zero). So i am not able to get any control component also. Rest of the application is working fine. Please help me solving this problem.
Thanks in advance.

Google's version is not even that compatible with other Jabber apps. (See Here)
The Plug-in in the Google Install (Or the Standalone Web Browser Plug-in allow Browsers to access the GoogleTalk A/V side as does the Standalone PC app called GoogleTalk as well.
iChat uses a process called SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) to connect to other iChat Users or to the AIM for PC app.
However this also works in any iChat to iChat Connection no matter if the Buddy List is an AIM Login based one, Jabber (including GoogleTalk) or A LAN based Bonjour Chat.

K1 - HDMI video out issue

Hello,
First post to this forum.
I bought my K1 end of November. I purchased two micro-HDMI cables, and not seeing video out. Briefly saw the picture on screen once or twice, but nothing consistent. Have plugged my K1 into 4 or 5 different HDMI-enabled monitors/TVs, no luck. The cable doesn't seem to sit very securely in the hdmi port. These are definitely micro HDMI cables I purchased from two different sources (not mini-HDMI). They may only have been HDMI 1.3 version cables, but I think they should have worked.
Sent my K1 in for Lenovo service and came back this week. Everything with HDMI checked out according to Lenovo support. I actually just ordered two more "high speed" 3 ft cables from monoprice hoping this solves the issue (version 1.4). I should have the two new cables next week
Has anyone else had issues with HDMI video out? I would like to know from others if the HDMI worked well for them. Don't know what to expect.
Thanks!
Solved!

My Micro HDMI to HDMI cable works fine with my K1. I have to watch that my micro HDMI plug is fully into the K1's socket, because my case sometimes is too close to the socket and the plug touches my case preventing the plug to fit all the way into the socket and making connection. Like the case. It's a MoKo from Amazon.com for $20.

Thunderbolt as a HDMI video capture port?
