Using a non UBS video class camera in ichat

Hi,
I have a Panasonic HDC-SD5 camera which I am trying to set up for use in iChat, as a webcam
It has a DV-out out, but when plugged in and turned on it isn't recognised as a USB Video Class device
Does anyone know if there is a driver/program around to make this possible?
My machine is a macbook pro, the camera is a Panasonic HDC-SD5 (records onto SD card in AVCHD format)
Any help appreciated, let me know if I can provide more info

The only thing to try then is iUSBcam http://www.ecamm.com/mac/iusbcam/ but dont hold your breath.

    • Only if your video camera supports it.  Depending on how your camera works, you may need to add preview software to your Mac to use this feature.
    • Alternatively, your camera may also be able to record directly into your Mac while you are monitoring the Mac's display.
    • If you are using a consumer camcorder that supports HDMI monitoring, a small HDTV might be an simpler solution than your Mac.  For an example of how this is done, see http://youtu.be/GVpSkZD6qE4.
    • The retailer who sold you your video camera may have other suggestions.
    • If you need more professional results, an external preview monitor will offer more capability on compatible cameras.

  • I am trying to use my IPAD to video students in my conducting class, then email them the video for self evaluation.  However, many of the video clips are too long to email.  Is there anyway to compress the video clips and still email them so they can view

    I am trying to use my IPAD to video students in my conducting class, then email them the video for self evaluation.  However, many of the clips are too long to send.  Is there a way I can compress the clips and still send them via email so they can open and them using Quicken?
    Muzakmn

    It depends on the clips' content, their current format, and how much you would need to compress them, but in most cases and with most email systems, it's difficult to impossible to compress a clip enough to be able to get it through the attachment size limits of most email providers and still have the video be comprehensible. You'll probably need to find a web site or other method where you could post the videos for download by the students.
    You can try compression and trimming, though, and see if you can get the video small enough to email. An attachment often has to be 3MB or less to go through, though it depends entirely on the email systems on both ends. If you look to the right under "more like this" you'll find similar threads on the subject.
    Regards.

  • Using a non-firewire cam with quicktime broadcaster

    I have this very nice ptz analogue video conferencing camera... worth about $2000 to tell the truth. I would love to be able to use it with quicktime broadcaster. The problem is the video output is S-video, not fire wire. Does anyone know of some sort of hardware adapter or something that can take the S-video signal and output it in such a way that will trick quicktime broadcaster into thinking that there is a firewire video cam connected?
    any suggestions would be appreciated
    G4 Dual   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    I had thought of that but I am worried that i would shell out the money for one only to find out that Broadcaster doesn't recognize it. The documentation for Broadcaster claims that it requires a firewire camera. I am wondering if anyone has had any success or failure with this?
    Not a QT Broadcaster user myself, but do have v1.5 installed on my G5. On reading your query, I tested it with an old, original (unstable stabilized) Dazzle Hollywood DV-Bridge and newer Canopus ADVC-300 converters. Both were correctly identified by name if properly connected when QT Broadcaster application is opened. And, although "hot-swapping" the converters did not cause any problems while QT Broadcaster is running, neither did it force the software to rescan and identify the "change" in hardware device.
    For the purpose of the tests Nikon digital still cameras (990 and D-70) with analog video output and a Sony camcorder with analog and digital outputs (in both tape and throughput modes) were used as the source and the output was recorded/saved as a QT movie file by QT Broadcaster. While I could only get the D-70 to output singleframes (didn't take the time to look for the book), all other sources produced much better quality than expected using the default DV to QVGA/15fps settings -- even when using an old 1930's B&W movie as the taped source.
    For what it's worth ...

  • Is it possible to use iChat for non network video conferanci

    Hi all,
    I am looking for a little help please. This may be a fruitless question, but here it goes. I have a deaf 5th grader. TTY relay is essentially a thing of the past, and all of her friends are using 'video phone' to keep in touch. Anyway, today we got a Sorenson VRS router and video phone camera from her school, and it uses our existing cable internet connection. It is a BUNCH of stuff to hook up to an already crowded system. Does anyone have any ideas about the possibility of using iChat for my daughter to connect to her friends that will be using a different system?
    Sorry if this is the question of a Neophyte. I am learning this deaf world as i go.
    Thanks,
    Chad

    HI Randell,
    Welcome to the Apple Discussion Pages.
    I can tell you what iChat will do and maybe that will help.
    iChat is an Instant Messaging service that uses the AIM servers. Therefore it is an AIM client.
    AIM stands for AOL Instant Messenger.
    You can join this service in several ways.
    1) By having the AOL Package where AOL is your Internet provider (ISP)
    2) By having the stand alone Application referred on these Discussions as the AIM application (comes in several version for PC, Macs, Linux and phones although each version varies as to what it can do - see side bar at link page).
    3) Or by another application that is also an AIM client.
    On a Mac that can be Proteus or AdiumX, there are PC AIM clients like Trillian.
    Some AIM clients only do some of the features.
    FOr instance iChat to PC AIM can Video (Moving Pics and Sound) but not Audio only.
    iChat to Trillian on a PC can do both Video and Audio only if the PC end has the Pro version of Trillian ($25)
    All clients can at least Text chat.
    Many can send files and pics as well as Text chatting.
    iChat can support Text chatting, Audio Chats and Video chats. Any USB Mic will work for Audio chats. Many Firewire DV Camcorders also work, many Firewire Webcams also work and some USB cams can be made to work with iChat.
    To do this iChat needs a fast enough Mac (Procesor speed) and a fast enough interent Connection Speed.
    In iChat 2 there is felt to be a better chance of success with connections to PC machines running either AIM (or the AOL package) or Trillian Pro for Video chats.
    Text chats and Video chats can be done to the same Buddy (contact) at the same time. I would have thought this would be ideal as it provides a chance to practice lip reading skills and not missing any of the info.
    What iChat 2 can not do.
    1) Chat to other services like MSN or Yahoo!
    2) Chat or link to Video phones.
    3) Video to Mobile (cell) phones.
    4) Connect to other Video conferencing services.
    For more info start here
    Faq on how to start in iChat
    This tells you more about connecting to PCs.
    More info than you might need at this stage http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/
    What iChat 3 adds.
    1) Upto 4 people in a Video chat
    2) Access to the Jabber service (Another Instant Messaging service). This also can use Jabber servers that provide things called Tranports Gateways to other IM services which allows Text chatting to Buddiies on these services.

  • HT4101 Why won't my iPad mini allow my gopro 32gb SD card to transfer video using the lightening to SD card camera reader?

    Why won't my iPad mini allow my gopro 32gb SD card to transfer video using the lightening to SD card camera reader?
    The gopro transfer worked with my original iPad. Is it the lightening technology?

    If you've gone through all that and it's the right kind of SD card, right naming convention etc. try giving your iPad a reset. Sometimes that port gets turned off (for lack of a better term) and a reset turns it back on. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again.
    If it still doesn't work, if you have access to another iPad try the reader on that. THere are some defective ones out there. If it works on another iPad then there's something going on with yours. If it doesn't work on another iPad then you may want to take that reader back and exchange it because it may be bad.

    Is there a video chat app that can use the Charge's front facing camera?
    Edit: for video chat between the Charge and a PC. 
    Thanks!

    I tried Tango, Qik, and ooVoo. 
    The only one that can use the Charge's front facing camera AND video chat with a PC is the ooVoo.
    Works perfectly!
    Tango and Qik ad mobile-to-mobile only at this time.
    Thanks!
    P.S.   .... this really makes me wonder why Skype cannot work with the front facing camera if other

    The basic answer is that Apple has not programmed the capture routine with this capability. As such, you can always send QT feedback requesting this feature be added as a future enhancement.

  • How to achieve good non-interlaced video using compressor (newbie question)

    Dear all,
    I am completely at sea but I know that I have to use the "none" setting for the field order and cannot for the life of me work this out.
    Now- I usually export direct from Final Cut Pro (H.264, best quality etc etc) but this time the exported QT file just will not de-interlace (not my footage but I have to deliver the edit), come **** or high water.
    So- a kind soul said to use Compressor... And to not use any field ordering.
    But HOW? I watched videos, sought to use the instructions given me here but am still totally lost.
    What I did:
    1. Launched Compressor,
    2. Dragged in the self-contained reference QT file from my desktop,
    3. Picked a setting (H.264 which has field reordering ON by default),
    4. Dropped the "setting" into the blue field to right of clip thumb,
    5. Double-clicked the "setting" and then-
    6. picked the "Encoder" button, as instructed but cannot change the Field Order.
    Because Compressor is completely new to me I don't know if I ought to NOT pick a setting until I have it how I want it, saved it as a "custom setting" and THEN bring it into the project or if I am to do it once brought in to the project. Either way- how to change the field order to "none". Or should I pick a de-interlace filter? Just that I have been looking and testing and nothing I do creates a de-interlaced final file.
    All the tutorial videos I have watched (erm- about 5 now) go over exporting and how to pick your settings from those which exist but what I need to know is how to change a setting to suit (ie get rid of the evil interlacing).
    I am hoping someone here can give me a very simple step by step or point me in the direction of one.

    Let me see if I can wrap my head around what you're trying to do. You started with an HD timeline 1280 x 720 (16:9). Into this you want to add your SD PAL clips, shrunk down for a picture in picture effect (a completely different concept from multicam.) But your shrunk down clips have nasty interlacing, and the one clip which was meant to be full frame looks like rubbish, right? Sorry but there's no way to blow a clip up 180% and have it look even halfway decent. At least not in FCP. Compressor has an upscale algorithm, available in the same Frame Controls tab where you did the de-interlacing, which can give you somewhat better results. There's also a plug-in from Red Giant called Instant HD which may or may not yield better results than Compressor.
    Here's where you went wrong. The clips to be shrunk should have been deinterlaced before bringing them into FCP, and into your sequence. Go ahead and do this, using the ProRes 422 setting, with the deinterlacing technique from before.
    Your sequence in FCP is fine, except that you want to change its compressor to ProRes 422 so that it matches your newly imported de-interlaced clips.
    You want to de-interlace your P2 1080i clips beforehand as well. The other change to make to your sequence is to change Field Dominance to None.
    If you've already finished your edit, you can still do all of the de-interlacing, outputting all of the results to a new folder. But you have to do every source clip in its entirety if you want to re-link to retain your edit.
    When Compressor's done - this will probably take all night - open your FCP project, select all the source clips, right-click and choose Reconnect Media. Locate the newly de-interlaced ProRes clips and Connect.
    Then you only need to export your sequence as a Quicktime Movie, Current Settings, Self-contained. This will give you a pristine master which will play fine on your computer, and from which you may then use Compressor to create a web or dvd version as needed.

    Our school blocks youtube.com on the wireless network, which is fine, but my students need to send videos they create on 4g iPod Touches to YouTube and currently can't. School personnel says if I can tell them url to unblock, they will allow the upload. Uploading videos in Camera Roll works successfully from home, but I see no url and don't know how to track it.
    I know they log blocked traffic at school and could look this up, but they don't want to take the time to do this; they want a url they can paste into their filtering appliance.
