Use FaceTime to record a video with screen sharing?

I need to record a presentation, going back and forth between me talking and demonstrating my company's new iPhone app. The app runs in the Xcode iOS simulator on my MacBook, and my MacBook has a FaceTime camera (720p!). Is there a way to use FaceTime to record a video? Skype has screen sharing. You can just click a button and the caller sees what's on your computer screen. Then you click again to return to the caller seeing you talking. Does FaceTime have a screen sharing feature? Is there another app I should be using?

I just did a little Googling and found eCamm:

It looks like it'll record a Skype call, and Skype has screen sharing. I'll download the demo version and try it out.

Recording streaming videos with sound

Can I use quicktime for recording streaming videos with sound? If not which Apple software can do it?
Bye Christof

You can use Quicktime to record streaming video +with it's audio+ by using a very simple trick. Using the same cable you connect your iPod/iPhone to your car's stereo system, connect your Mac's Audio OUT to its MIKE IN jack. I used FILE / OPEN URL to select the video stream source, then selected FILE / NEW SCREEN RECORDING. In the resulting 'Screen Recording' dialog box, I set the AUDIO slider all the way to the right, and under the arrow to the right, selected "Built-in Input Line In" for the microphone. I then used the appropriate controls to play the stream and record it. The resultant file was very acceptable. Good luck.

Is there any way i can record a video with 2 audio sources?

I want to be able to record a video with 2 audio sources (1 being a mic and the other being a guitar, both plugged in by usb's) while recording myself playing at the same time. I usually use an aucoustic but the sound is obviously much better when i plug straight in, is there any way i can do this without recording everything seperate? Im using a macbook pro.

Are you looking to do post recording adjustments to the separate tracks? That really determines now you do this.
If you not looking for multitrack recording (you just want to combine the two signal into one and record that) then probably the easiest thing to do would be to get an external mixer that would accept multiple inputs and output as USB . Then you could set the levels with the mixer and just worry about recording the one signal.
You could try using the MIDI Audio Setup app to create an aggregate device (one that will accept multiple inputs).
There is also the 3rd party app Soundflower. It's an app that takes audio signals and allows you to route them between apps and to combine audio signals. It is dated but still works in 10.8

Video and Screen Sharing not working with new modem

I give up. Just replaced my old dead Motorola DSL modem with a new Motorola 2210-02 DSL Modem and now iChat video and screen sharing aren't working. I am running 10.5.7, have an Airport Extreme, and 2 computers with cameras (a G5 with an iSight, a Macbook Pro with built in camera) and both worked fine before the modem switch. iChat works, just not video or screen sharing. I have 3 or so friends that I used to be able to video chat with regularly before the modem swap. Spent 3 hours and $50.00 on Apple support with no results. Also talked with my provider (AT&T/Yahoo) and they were no help. Anyone?

Hi,
This Motorola is a branded Netopia device (Motorola Own them now)
Default access info is near the top of this page
Turn the Firewall Off or to Low as Medium an High have things that interfere with iChat. (Make sure the Stateful Packet Inspection is OFF)
Check all the tabs across the top and the menus down the side of each page to see if it has UPnP (most likely in Local Network but could be anywhere)
The pics will show you if it is doing DHCP
The Airport settings are in Airport Utility and on the Internet iCon screen where it says "Share a Public IP" in the bottom drop down.

How can I record a video with LAbview?

Hi,
I have a question: How can I record a video with labview?
I have a camera (AXIS 221) connected via rj45 on PC. I see the video of the camera in a browser.
And I would to acquire the video in labview.
Could someone help me?
Thanks
Raf

Unfortunately I haven't any experience with this camera. Iguess, you should install API, then crete new VI, place ActiveX container (palette Container->ActiveX) on the Front Panel, then right mouse click, then choose Insert ActiveX object..., then found you camera object and select it and press OK. Then you probably can see image from the on the front panel. Also probably you will be able to get image data in array (how easy is it - depends from the camera API).
If you able to see image from camera in the Internet Explorer, then another method - you can put Microsoft Web Browser as ActiveX object, then you should also see the image. Disadvantage of this method - you will be not able to get image data.

I have just boight my first Lenovo - a W530 Thinkpad notebook.
The integrated camera works well... but I can ONLY take picture with it.

Problems with screen sharing

Upgraded three systems to Mountain Lion yesterday (Early 2011 MBP, Mid 2010 Mini and Mid 2011 Mini).
I rely on Screen Sharing to maintain the two Minis using the MBP. Now, while the Mid 2010 Mini can be accessed just fine, the same is not true for the Mid 2011 Mini. After a long delay, a window will pop up but is black. If I toggle between scaled and full screen a couple of times, the screen will be displayed but will accept no input. Odd.

I was able to resolve the problem with screen sharing from my MBP to my problematic Mini.
My home network uses a Belkin N600 dual band router with both the MBP and Mini using the faster N band. After switching the Mini to the slower band, screen sharing began working again. My other Mini that worked all along was hardwired to the router so was not an issue.
Oddly, with Lion, screen sharing worked having the MPB and Mini on the same N band.

Need help with screen sharing/VNC

I can't seem to get screen sharing to work. I got my dad an iMac this Christmas and thought I could help him learn it with screen sharing. Not going so well. I tried experimenting with a friend's Macbook and I was able to screen share when we were within wireless range via iChat and Bonjour. But when more remote, the "share screen" icon on iChat is grayed out. My friend tried setting up an AIM account (v 4.7 I think) and we still can't screen share.
So I tried the VNC option with my dad's computer. I went to Finder >Go >Connect to server >entered vnc://Dad's IP address and got the message that it couldn't be found.
All three of the computers in this message have screen sharing turned on, firewall set to accept anyone, and have 10.5.1. We all use DSL modems (from the phone company), connected wirelessly; and I'm the only one with a dot Mac account.

2 ideas
The DSL modems that are provided by my Telephone Company (Centurytel) are all Westell and Netopia routers. The phone company calls them modems, but they are actually routers with a built-in NAT firewall. This means you have to set up port forwarding for VNC to work. The TCP ports to forward are 5500,5800,5900. VNC doesn't use UDP.
If you are both using Leopard, then the free .mac account takes care of the port forwarding problem, and also finding the other party's IP number (the .mac id continues to work for iChat even after the 60 day trial). You both login to .mac, start the chat, and then request to share screens. It's working so well for me that as soon as the 400mb 1.5.2 update becomes available I will start moving my clients over to Leopard

Problems connecting video and screen sharing

see the leopard iChat forum, I moved it to there. thanks, its called Another Video and screen sharing connection problem

Hi,
Welcome to the  Discussions
IS this Linksys doing UPnP ?
This is set in the Administration page of the set up pages.
Also in the Security Page disable the Anonymous Ping Blocking.
If you set UPnP then make sure any Port Forwarding, Port Triggering and DMZ is disabled.
These last three use NAT more strongly than UPnP and NAT can be an Issue.
The Appleu3test accounts are effectively on Public IP address so Lees/no NAT

Trouble with Screen Sharing

I am having trouble getting screen sharing to work. Video/audio chat works fine without incident. When I attempt to start a screen sharing session I get the error: "Failed to start Screen Sharing because: Screen sharing could not be established."
Screen sharing is enabled under the "Sharing" System Preferences section.
Below is the errors that were logged to the console:
4/3/08 8:50:37 PM iChat[141] Detected bandwidth (kbits/s): 249 up, 249 down. (00000000)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

And in iChat's Video menu Screen Sharing is active ?
Also are the ports for iChat open in any modem or router ?

Hello,
If one person has Group Video abilities and they invite others into a meeting, can the others share their screens too or does everyone need Group Video subscription to share their screen?
Thanks!

How do I get started with screen sharing?

There are dozens of articles on the web and posts here talking about what's new with screen sharing in Lion, but for the life of me I can't find anything that tells somebody completely new to screen sharing how to get started. If I want to do screen sharing with a friend (over the Internet, not a LAN), what exactly do we have to do to get started?
Sorry for a noob question, but everything I see assumes you're already completely familiar with it and just want to see Lion tweaks.

ok so go to your system preferences on your MAC > go to sharing > click the screen sharing option on> next go to the add users section right below on the right and you add your friend whom you want to share with. You have to select a password for this person. When you get this done you will see a
Other users can access your computer's screen at:
and you will have an address there with some numbers. give this to your friend whom you want to see your screen, they have to post this in their web-browser, and that is how you remotely screen share. This is if you all are not on the same network. Also if you want to share his/her screen they will have to do these steps for you.

How do I turn off the camera lights when recording a video with the Android Turbo?

I want to use the Andriod Turbo camera video function in ambient lighting using the forward lens. But when I start recording both lights stay on. I can video with ambient using the look back lens. Not as good a quality and harder to aim.
Is there a setting that can turn off the lights until I want them? How is it done?
Thanks for the help.

Thank You! Problem solved. I am a new user to 'smart phones' and my original question probably should have been "How Do I Find The Camera Settings Menu?"
It wasn't obvious, but your reply got me searching again. I found that if you drag your finger from the left side of the screen to the center the semi-circular menu appears on the left. There I found the light control and other options.
I didn't know it existed and the manufacturer's manual that came with the phone gave no instructions on the camera operation.
abcdefg4, your comment helped me search a little harder. Thank you again.

Parents on iMac using FaceTime - can't hear them with my iPhone 4

First support post. This one's really stumping me. Haven't called Apple Support for an answer yet. I hope someone here can help.
So, here's the situation.
I use my iPhone 4 (latest software updates, not jailbroken, etc.) to FaceTime with my parents who are at home on their 21" iMac (the latest generation before the new new ones that just came out). It's running 10.6.7. It has the latest version of FaceTime (the one that costs 99 cents). When I call, we connect and I can see my parents just fine. They can hear me perfectly whether I'm using earbuds or not. But I can't hear them. When I use iChat to video chat, it's perfectly fine. Everything works. It doesn't matter if I send them the FaceTime call or they send it to me. I can't hear them.
I tested the problem on my wife's Mac Mini. When I FaceTime with her, she can hear/see me, I can hear/see her. I tested it with my buddy on his Mac Pro. He can hear/see me, I can hear/see him.
I've run software update on my parent's iMac (using screen sharing). I've checked the sound settings in system preferences. I've scoured forums for this exact problem and I've had no luck.
Anybody have any ideas why I can't hear them on my iPhone 4 using FaceTime ... but I can hear everybody else I FaceTime with?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No solution, just posting that I have the same issue.
Sisters iMac in Wisconsin, my iPhone4 in Los Angeles..
Whats strange about it is, when she calls from her iMac, I get her sound for about a minute, and then it goes dead (though she can always hear me.) If she calls back, still no sound. It resolves itself a day later, but then again sound will cut out after about a minute.
However, if she facetimes me from her iPod touch, it works fine. Sound has never cut out when she uses that.
Like I said, no ideas, just sharing my situation. Hopefully Apple has noticed this bug and is working to fix it.

Premiere Elements 13 (not Pro), recorded a video with mono mic input (left channel only), need to create 2-channel (left and right) audio track for finished product. Help?

The question says it all. I have been all over the tutorials as well as the menus inside Premiere 13 and cannot find how to edit the audio track beyond basic balance, volume, etc.
I can see the Audio 1 track, shows audio in left channel only, but it will not respond to attempts to select, cut/copy, paste, etc.
Basically I just want to turn one-channel audio into two-channel audio.

Sure you do not want to give the Fill Left and Fill Right another try?
According to the Adobe document Adobe Premiere Elements Help | Effects reference
Fill Left, Fill Right
The Fill Left effect duplicates the left channel information of the audio clip and places it in the right channel, discarding the original clip’s right channel information. The Fill Right effect duplicates the right channel information and places it in the left channel, discarding the existing left channel information. For example, you might use this effect on footage shot with a monaural microphone plugged into only one channel of a camcorder, extending the voice of a speaker from one channel to both.
From what you wrote, your Premiere Pro video seems to be saying the same.
If that Premiere Elements Fill Left or Fill Right is no go, you might want to explore what you can do in this regard using the free audio editor Audacity.
Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder
And, then import the Audacity edited audio back into Premiere Elements project as source media.
Is the speaker system OK?
We will be watching for your results.
Thanks for the follow up.
