Usb video camera and tv card /dev/video

I have a usb video camera and a pci tv card on my computer. However when I reboot they change between /dev/video0 and /dev/video1. How can I set it up so that every time they will be assigned the same /dev/videoX device?

I'll bet you are having a similar problem to that which happens with disk drives. Take a look at this wiki article on how to deal with drives that swap. I think the same technique can be applied to supplement 60-persistent-v4l.rules.
I've not tried this, YMMV

HT4101 Camera connector kit not working with ipad3. Not at all able to see any photo . Have tried both the USB connector directly with camera and thru card reader. Tried by copying photos to DCIM folder also.

Got a iPad camera connector kit. It is not working as expected. It is not able to read any photos. Both the USB connector and sd card reader arenot showing any photos on iPad. Tried copying all photos directly in DCIM folder. Still no result.
Any other setting needs to be changed?

Hey, thanks for your updates.
The photos are 8 character long and extension is .jpg
The file names are 8 characters long with 3 as alphapet followed by an "_" and then 4 numbers.
Initially the photos were in a folder inside DCIM folder. I manually copied them to DCIM folder, still no result.
Can you advice.

USB cameras and memory cards slow to be recognized? Simple solution!

For some users, Image Capture is slow to recognize memory cards and cameras connected to their Mac. However, there is a quick and easy solution.
Bluetooth devices seem to keep Image Capture from accessing memory cards and cameras plugged into your Mac.
To alleviate the problem, navigate to System Preferences, click Bluetooth, and select and delete the devices you no longer need. With no Bluetooth phones connected, Image Capture works at a normal speed.

First make sure that no application is using or has open any files on the disk. Then:
Click and drag the disk icon on the desktop to the trash. Wait for the system to recognize the action, and the icon should disappear from the desktop. It is then safe to remove the device.
Alternatively, you can secondary click on the disk icon, and then primary click "Eject (name of disk)". Wait for the icon to disappear off the desktop, and then it is safe to remove the drive.
Here is a detailed help document on the subject.

Video-iPod Compatible USB 2.0 PCMCIA (PC Card)

I'm getting more than a little frustrated looking for a direct answer to my question:
I am looking for a USB 2.0 PC Card for my TiBook that will give my video iPod full functionality with the laptop.
So far all I can find is what I don't care about: I don't want to hear about minis, shuffles, or nanos. I don't want to hear about PCs, PowerPC towers or PowerBooks with USB 2.0 built in. I don't want to hear about charging - I want to know which card, including model number, that will work completely.
I've already tried an older Belkin card that I borrowed, and a CompUSA card that I am now selling at a loss because it didn't work. Some people have used cards that worked, but don't give a brand and/or model number.
Mac OS X (10.4)

quote > eww: "instead of ranting at us about what you don't want to hear, you could be searching the Tibook forums yourself for "USB 2".
Actually I spent a good deal of time fruitlessly searching these forums for 'usb 2.0' and 'pc card', PCMCIA, etc. hence my frustration. People with PCs for instance, were posting unhelpful things like: "I don't use a Mac but my friend does and he uses a PC Card that works perfectly." People with Minis were posting about charging with firewire. There was just too much irrelevent stuff after a couple hours to hunt through.
quote > eww: "whatever you may mean by "work completely," which you haven't defined at all, may not be precisely what tjk or anyone else understands it to mean".
I was trying to be concise when I said I was, "looking for a USB 2.0 PC Card for my TiBook that will give my video iPod full functionality with the laptop." Sorry if I wasn't clear.
I'll elaborate then: I want to use my 5.5g video iPod with my 500 mhz G4 Titanium PowerBook, including video playback. The TiBook does not come with USB 2.0 factory installed, so video playback doesn't work and file transfers are slow. I tried a 4 year old Belkin USB 2.0 PCMCIA card that my boss loaned me, but the iPod didn't mount. I bought a new card from CompUSA (storebrand), which didn't work either. I have gleaned from these forums that there are cards that work and there are cards that do not, but I haven't found a post or link that precisely says what brand and model these are. Sorry again if that sounds like I am asking for a guarantee of some sort.
I just did a search for tjk's thread as you suggested, and I did see tjk's posts before. It was actually the one I used as an example of my frustraion above.
William the PC Poster:
"But I do have a friend in Calif. that does have a powerbook and I know he has a usb card, used it to charge my ipod... will im him and find out... hold on. "
and
"Ok, here is the scoop, my friend has a powerbook with a usb card, his internal died. (hmmmmm a mac with a problem but he did say that it is as fast as his internal card was and as fast as his g3. He said that it is the same. His Ipod charges as fast as it does on his mainframe. "
he did post this, which was on the right track:
"I did talk to my friend again, and he told me that he bought a card from airnet that was only 14 dollars, and it was a 2.0 but low power. It was also noticably slower then this card, he paid 19 dollars for his belkin and it works great. He got his card while visiting us in Mexico. He said that this one charges his ipod and transfers both video and pictures as well as music at a fast pace. "
But get a load of tjk's final post in the thread, sound familiar?:
"Hi william,
Any chance you know or would find out exactly which PB and card your friend has that apparently syncs at USB2 speed?
Thanks"
That was back in November, I doubt William will be posting back at this late date.

I have a Panasonic FZ38 HD camera. I can load and view my hd movies onto iMovie with no problems via my camera or a card reader. When I try to copy my hd videos from my old Windows pc to my new iMac, the picture speed has doubled but the sound is normal.

I have a Panasonic DMC-FZ38 HD camera and have lots of hd movie clips stored on my old Windows Pc using Photofun software supplied by Panasonic, which I want to transfer to my new Imac computer. I am able to copy my most recent movies that are still on the memory card from my camera onto Imovie and view them with no problems at all. When it comes to copying my old existing hd movies stored on my Windows Pc (and which are no longer stored on a memory card), I discover that when I view them on the Imovie, the speed has doubled but the sound is normal. In order to transfer my old movies I have copied them back onto a memory card (SDHC - the same card as previously used) and then put the card back into my camera and then copied them onto my Imac via the camera USB. I have also used a card reader but get the same result. If I view the same movie through my camera, or look at it on my old pc, it plays at normal speed. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening please?

have you read and watch the Tutorials..? :
http://www.apple.com/ilife/tutorials/#imovie
iM is a bit.. iffy, when it comes to the definition, what a 'camera' is. historically, only tape based machines were a movie-camera. nowadays still-cams allow movin' images too..
but, as mentioned above: the intended workflow is: material from photo cameras (even when they move) => import via iPhoto; material from video cameras (even when they don't move.. ) => iMovie
when the import is done, you'll notice in all iLife apps the 'media browser' - in iM09, on the very right, the icon with a camera on.. click it, presto, all (incl. your 'videos') your iPhoto Library at hand for usage in iMovie.

-->Click HERE<-- Does item "B" (Turn video on/off) in the last topic on the page help?
You control the camera for Skype from within Skype, so Skype must be running to running to make video work.

I have an old JVC video camera and wish to import videos however the driver only supports windows.

I have an old JVC digital camera and am trying to upload videos on to my Macbook pro. However the device is not recognised and the drivers only support windows.

I have an old JVC camera, i would like to transfer the video which is on mini DV cassette
It would help if you give us the exact model JVC camcorder you have.
That said, nearly all miniDV camcorders (including JVC miniDV cams) transfer video via Firewire (aka iLink or IEEE 1394), not USB. And no drivers are required, at least not on a Mac. If you have a more recent Mac that has a Thunderbolt port (no Firewire port), you can use an Apple Thunderbolt-Firewire adapter to connect your camcorder to your Mac (although you may also need a 4-pin to 9-pin FW cable).
Also, on miniDV camcorders that have both Firewire and USB connections, the USB connection is almost exclusively reserved for transferring still photos from the memory card in the camcorder, not video from the miniDV cassettes.

How do you get photos off a digital camera and videos off a camcorder onto the iPad air?

How do you get photos off a digital camera and videos off a camcorder onto the iPad air?

You can use the camera connection kit.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD822ZM/A/lightning-to-sd-card-camera-reader?f node=3a
If your camera has an SD card
or the lightening to USB for your videos
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD821ZM/A/lightning-to-usb-camera-adapter?fnod e=3a
(might also work for your camera)
The photo part is rather self-explanatory. as long as your photos are in the right format and with the right naming convention they should import right over. The video may be a bit more tricky. So you may want to do some more research and make sure your camera records a format the iPad will import and whether or not you need an app such as iMovie

Want to add Video and Graphic Card to my computer system

I Notice that one of the users' in the Apple discussion Board is Listed, (AndyO) he has help me many times in the Past and was succesful in my problrm solution, would he might be able to help me with this?
I had Purchased the Game Spore Creature Creator the Starter Kit which is just the Creature creator game and not the actual game itself. I wasn't able to install the the game on my computer because I don't have the right or not at all Video and Graphic Card install on my computer. I had Contacted the Company "EA" that puts out the Game Spore, this is what they said what the game requirements are: The minimum system requirements for Spore and Spore the Galactic Edition for Mac are as follows:
* Mac OS X 10.5.3 Leopard or higher
* Intel Core Duo Processor
* 1024 MB RAM
* At least 345 MB of hard drive space for installation, plus additional space for created creatures. (260 MB for the Trial Edition)
* Video Card - ATI X1600 or NVidia 7300 GT with 128 MB of Video RAM, or Intel Integrated GMA X3100
This game will not run on PowerPC (G3/G4/G5) based Mac systems (PowerMac).
For computers using built-in graphics chipsets, the game requires at least: an Intel Integrated Chipset GMA X3100 or Dual 2.0GHz CPUs, or 1.7GHz Core 2 Duo, or equivalent
Supported Video Cards
ATI Radeon(TM) series
* X1600, X1900, HD 2400, HD 2600
NVIDIA GeForce series
* 7300, 7600, 8600, 8800
Intel(R) Extreme Graphics
* GMA X3100
and that I need to upgrade my system. Basically I need; ATI Radeon 1600 or NVIDIA Geforce 7300 and a INTEL Extreme Graphic Video Card-GMA X3100, in order to be able to install and play this game. Since I already have this game, I would like to be able to upgrade my computer system which brings me to ask; does somone know or refer me to a web site that has and sells these Video and Graphic Card and supports for the Mini Mac?
Plus they say that I need a 1020 of MB of Ram, I Have already found that 1024 MB of Ram but I just need those Video and Graphic Cards for my computer system. I am adding my computer system Profile to my discussion board to show you what I have on my system, would you be able to tell me if I would be able to add these Video and Graphic card and the memory or Ram 1024 to my computer system?
Note: Here is a web site that I am looking at to add the 1024 MB of Ram to my computer system:

Can someone Please help me with any suggestions or otherwisde I will have to go to a Apple store and ask for help there.
Thank You,

Hi Trisha,
The only modern Mac's with video cards are the Mac Pro and Xserve (server) systems. They both are priced quite a bit higher than any Mac Mini.
Some systems, like the Mac Book Pro laptop can be ordered with different graphics cards, but that has be done when the system is built, as it is not replaceable once the system is built. To find out which systems, go to store.apple.com. For each system that you select, you can see if there's an option for a better video card.

Can only see some videos that are on camera's SD card

I would like to be able to directly import videos from my camera's SD card into iPhoto, but when I put the card in my Mac, only some of the videos show up. If I look in Finder, I can see all the clips, open them in Quicktime, export them to the computer's drive, and then import them into iPhoto (all one at a time), but obviously that is a pain. I apparently can't use the import function in iPhoto to manually import the files from the SD card, because when I try it tells me the fileare in an unreadable format. (The camera records video in AVCHD format, and stores the data in a folder structure that shows up as a package in Finder. iPhoto doesn't let me open the package to go through the folders from its Import browser window, so I can only try to open the top folder, which iPhoto apparently can't parse.)
Any ideas welcome.
Camera: Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS20
Mac: Macbook Pro 15" w/ Retina
OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2
iPhoto '11 v. 9.4.2 (710.42)
Thanks.

Sorry it took so long for me to get back to this. The linked support article addresses the issue directly (thank you both), but the method recommended there (importing the entire AVCHD folder structure) didn't solve the problem. The small number of videos that iPhoto could not see originally also did not get imported, though the ones that it could originally see, did. Luckily since the percentage seems to be small (~10%), it is not prohibitive to open them one by one in Quicktime, re-export them, and then import them into iPhoto. Hopefully this will be fixed in the future. Thank you all for your suggestions.

Output Video File to 'Microsoft DV Camera And VCR' DV driver

I've just submitted this:
I would like to request that the facility be made available to output the one video file allowed on the session timeline to the 'Microsoft DV Camera And VCR' DV driver for display on a TV monitor via appropriate hardware. Please make this option in addition to the ability to display the video content on a PC monitor, i.e. the four permutations that would be available:
1) No display of video on PC Monitor or TV Monitor;
2) Display of video on PC Monitor but not on TV Monitor;
3) No display of video on PC Monitor but display on TV monitor;
4) Display of video on both PC Monitor and TV Monitor.
Dedicating a TV monitor to display the video will help to free-up PC monitor real estate for the display of other information or controls.

Hello Ryclark.
I know what you're talking about but, as far as I understand, no, it's a different thing.
A Microsoft DV Camera and VCR device could be an internal hardware card, an external IEEE 1394 connected piece of hardware such as a Canopus ADVC 110 (http://www.canopus.com/products/videoconversion.php), or a camcorder. An appropriate piece of software can access these devices via the Microsoft DV Camera and VCR device DV driver and either capture DV streams (video and audio) to the computer's hard disk (an ability that is not appropriate for Adobe Audition), or output DV streams (such as a DV file that's on an Audition session timeline) to the device. In the case of the ADVC 110, it has composite and s-video outputs for connection to, say, a video projector or TV monitor.
I find it far better to check sound against a picture that's being displayed on its intended output device i.e. interlaced video content on a TV monitor in order to assess how my soundtrack works with the picture.
When I submitted the feature request I asked only for video output and didn't specify any audio output requirements. This was because I had completely overlooked the audio side of the DV stream. I'd be happy with the output being the original DV file audio, the reasons being a) I wouldn't listen to it anyway, I'd listen to the soundtrack I'd created over the audio monitor system, and b) it stands more chance of being implemented if the request is kept simple. I could ask for the ability to route any bus or track to the audio part of the DV stream, but that would just increase the complexity of the coding. Other than the audio being in sync with the video, I'm not sure how useful that'd be anyway. If I remember correctly, a DV audio stream can be either 48kHz 16-bit stereo or 32kHz 12-bit four channel. Far better to monitor the mix from the PC's multichannel audio outputs.
I realize that there would be latency between the video displayed via a Microsoft DV Camera and VCR device and the audio played through the PC's sound card but hey, we're used to adjusting latency, aren't we?
Regards,
Steve.

No video signal with docu cam and projector

School teacher's Thinkpad connected to avervision document camera, and document camera to an overhead projector. Image throught the projector of what's under the document camera is fine. When we want to project what's on the computer screen (movie, etc.), and switch to "computer" on the document camera, the laptop screen goes black, but the projection is visible through the projector. Is there an FN fix or some other way to fix this?

Yes, its an HD sequence, I want to view it in component but I'm using a SDI-Monitor also (which strangely gets an audio signal, but still no video)
I can't find anything like that in the 'Select output processing'-box, even after updating to 9.7.8 (released on Friday)...
It doesn't make any sense to me. Why would it work with AE and BM Media Express but not with Premiere CC?
My BM Decklink is not the newest model, but I don't think thats the problem.
It still seems to be supported by the software and it works with AE.
I'm going to change my graphic card from GTX 780 to NVIDIA quadro, lets see whether that will get me the result I'm hoping for, but tbh I'm giving up...
