Time and Date (again) over DV

Hi everyone, thanks for the help with my last problem.
As expected though I have anther one with regards to a similar issue of time and date taken from a video camera.
I would like to record footage on DV, either MDV or Digital 8 and transfer it to computer using FireWire, I would like the footage to playback the time and date overlays from the camera (as seen in view finder / LCD) so i can record them to computer.
Is this possible with DV, i have tried enabling all options concerning this feature on my camera, but i still can't see the time and date through FireWire connection to the computer.
Are there any FCP settings or specific camera settings you guys know of?
Thanks for all your help, regards, Jim.

Jim
You can not capture the time/date onscreen via FireWire.
You have 3 options:
1. Buy/install a capture card with analog AV inputs.
2. Make a DV copy by connecting analog AV out/inputs.
3. Buy/connect a external analog>FireWire converter, for example this one:
http://www.canopus.com/products/ADVC55/index.php
In all cases, you have to use the analog output from the DV player/camera to display the time/date info.
Hope this helps.
Marce.

  • Nokia E71 time and date problems.

    I cant ever set the time and date of my nokia E71. Anytime i access the time and date settings, it just doesn't go through. Please help me out.

    Hi Faces1, 
    Welcome to Nokia discussions board! 
    In order to fix this issue, I advise you to perform a soft reset on your phone: type *#7780#. Default lock code is 12345. If the issue persists, perform a hard reset. First of all, back up your data using Nokia Suite (Tools > Back up). Once your data is fully backed up,  type *#7370# on the keypad. 
    Alternatively, you may also check for updates on Nokia Suite (by going to Tools > Updates).
    Then try to set the time and date again. 
    Let us know how you get on and feel free to post any other questions you may have.

  • Time and date reset to 2001 with Mac-Mini

    Hi all,
    I am a newbie with Mac, I just got a new mac-mini some weeks ago from Apple store. Everything is ok, except that, when I start my mac-mini, the time is reset and the date is reset to year 2001. I first saw that settings were to start with a network device, so I changed it and set to start from hard disk. Doing this, I pressed "restart", and it worked, the time and date were no longer changed. However, if the mac-mini stays for some hours turned off, the next time I start it it resets again the date and time, and it alerts me that with this new time&date settings some programs may not work well. So I need everytime to go to time&date setting and to change manually them, which is indeed annoying.
    How can I set definitely time&date, and why does the mac-mini resets them?
    Thanks
    mac-mini early 2006    

    Hi,
    thanks for your answer.
    I would eliminate the second option, cause it does not seem to go into shutdown, and moreover I have other PCs which do not suffer from power supply issues.
    I asked a pc-shop and was told that maybe the small battery inside the motherboard is over and need to be changed. Is it possible? The mac-mini is just come out from the factory!
    If your first option is true, I am afraid I need to send it to assistance at Apple!
    Thanks a lot
    Bye

  • Macbook procannot reset time and date

    I have macbook pro (2009).  The time and date has been set to prior to 2008 and does not allow me to modify.

    Back up all data.
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Please triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    sudo date 0109000014
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting. You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Confirm. You don't need to post the warning.
    If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Log in as one and start over.
    Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear below what you entered. You can then quit Terminal. Try again to set the date.

  • Printing current time and date on a pdf document

    I wish for a pdf document to print the current time and date in the same place at the foot of each page, to the following format:
    Aug 04 2009, 5:11 pm.
    How do I do this please? Annoyingly I have managed it in the past, but when I open up my old documents and paste the relevant field into my new document, it either prints the old date/time or else prints the present date/time, but then doesn't refresh the next time I try to print - ie it stays at one date/time.
    I'd like to start again from scratch so that I have a better idea of how it works!!
    Regards
    Tony

    Eureka!
    I now have the answer, and hopefully this will help anybody else with a similar problem.
    In Acrobat:
    Create a text field and place it in the chosen place on the pdf form. Label it "datebox" in the General tab of Text Field Properties, and apply your character styles in the Appearance tab.
    Under the "Advanced" menu, go to "Document Processing" and then "Set Document Actions"
    Click on "Document Will Print" and then hit the "Edit" button. In the "JavaScript Editor" paste the following:
    var myfield=getField("datebox");
    var date=new Date();
    date=util.printd("mmm dd yyyy, h:MM tt", date);
    myfield.value=date;
    Hit OK.
    You have now given the instruction that whenever you print, the field named "datebox" will print the current time and date in the following format:
    Aug 05 2009, 9.37 am
    Regards

  • Why is my macpro reseted time and date?

    Ok,eventually my macpro reseted his date and time to something about 2001... The point is,that i bought this laptop from a friend few months ago, and i even forgot to ask for a login password,and after that and didnt even consider reseting users. The problem with the time and date change,came another problem,i cant even use safari regulary,on sites such is facebook,or even apple .com,without getting a verification security verisign,without blocking the site that i am trying to get in to. Only way is to "trust" that site is manually sign it as "trusted" with your login and a password from your mac. Which i dont know,even my friend dont know the password,the one that i bought it from. Just to make some things straight,its not stolen,i bought it from an original owner,no matter how awkward this situation looks like. Thanks in advance for a any ideas.

    Hi all
    I have the same problem. When I put the touch to sleep, it seams that during the sleep phase, the time stands still and after power it on again, the time & date is reseted to the default settings.
    Hope someone have an idea or a solution for this problem.
    Cheers, istvan72

  • Help - EXIF time and date not working correctly

    I am a long time Lightroom user and am trying out Aperture 2.1. I like it a lot but I just found a serious problem. I'm importing some old photos into my Aperture library, by referencing the files in an existing folder. The time and date for some of the files gets messed up. When I view these files in LR the time and date is fine. When I look at the "date created" in the Finder, the time is also messed up. For a photo shoot I did in Europe, the time for some images has the right date & time when converted to US time, but for some images it has the right date & time but as if it were in the US time zone. The files are all Nikon NEFs.
    Also, when I view the files in the Aperture import dialog box they are in the right order. But when they get imported and I'm looking at them in Aperture they are in the wrong order.

    OK, I give up. Turns out that after one successful import where the dates were ok, subsequent imports have the dates messed up again - whether in Quick or Normal mode. I also tried importing to a new collection, and also tried importing after rebuilding the library (via command-option click in the dock). Still hving this problem.

  • Can't get past the time and date intial set up screen can anyone please help?

    We purchased Apple TV last night, hooked everything up according to the directions, until we get to the Setting Time and Date Screen, which Apple TV- for more than 12 hours now, has been trying to establish.  We've set the time zone both manually and automatically, I have emailed and tweeted Apple Support but no help so far, this is my last plea before I return it.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
    You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Also try restarting the router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
    If restoring from the Apple TV doesn't help, try restoring from iTunes using a USB cable.
    If this is a new Apple TV, in addition to trying the above, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.

  • Screensaver that interacts with time and date

    Hi all
    I have been asked to create a screensaver that will show a different movie/message all week, then at the end of the week I would need to have it revert back and do the same all over.
    All 7 movies (one for each day of the week) will be located inside the SWF file, I just need to know if it's possible for the movies to change over with the computers time and date.
    Thanks
    Matt

    I do apologize for my lack of scripting chops, I'm more on the designing side so I panic a little when it comes to this kind of stuff. But would I be on the right track If I began with the following script? I have got the document set up with each days movieclip on its own keyframe (7 in total) but it's just activating that keyframe on the given day that I'm finding difficult to work out. I assume it's a condition followed by a gotoAndPlay command?
    var today_date : Date = new Date();
    var dayOfWeek_array : Array = new Array("Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday");
    var day_str : String = dayOfWeek_array[today_date.getDay()];

  • Ipod touch always changes the time and date when synced

    Since I got my touch, even before any updates etc, every time I sync it the time and date changes, usually back about a week or so. Anyone else got this problem or any solution as its really annoying me. A cutting edge bit of kit that has practically every function that works so well and the clock and calendar cant keep time? weird....

    Not true in all cases, I updated to 2.0 and had 2 problems: One App had a Bug *NOT Apple`s fault*, and the second was another App ( again, not Apples fault ) that went back to home screen after opening. This was solved by a simple reset ( I have the first batch of Touches, 16 gb ). And the battery thing, I haven`t noticed it at all, I have an almost full charge, and have been using it for 4 days, never shut it down, only sleep mode when not in use.

  • Time and date preferences crashing

    Hi. Every time I click on the clock on the menu bar and go down the menu and click on "Open Time and Date...", it never works. It always stalls System Prefences, although it will occasionally open after not responding for a minute or two. This has only started happening recently, although I can't pinpoint any event that might be causing it.

    Usually a preference pane problem can be fixed by trashing
    com.apple.preferencepanes.cache in Home > Library > Caches folderIf this alone doesn't fix things after a logout/login, then trash it again (because it will have regenerated another bad file), together with
    com.apple.systempreferences.plist in Home > Library > Preferences folder,
    and in the Home > Library > Preferences > ByHost folder, the two files: com.apple.systempreferences.xxxxxx.plist and com.apple.PrefPane.Network.xxxxxx.plist, where xxxxxx = a hexadecimal numeric string.Post back to say if this works.
