Video camera - jpeg capture
I would like to capture individual jpeg images from an attached security style video camera (preferrably in Adobe Premiere Pro CS6). In the Premiere Capture window, the video camera is displaying an image when I press the Play icon, but I cannot find a method of grabbing an single image.
Gotcha.
Probably should have added the 'capture whole video' step, though.

Intermittant problems recognizing my Sony video camera when capturing
When filming live, I have an intermittant problem with PPro 6 recognizing my Sony video camera when capturing. I hit the G (for start recording) and something it goes live and sometime the capture window goes to digital mess. I am using the "no" device control preference setting as I was told to by the Sony customer care tech.
Has anyone had a similar problem?You might provide more information about your setup... PPro Information FAQ http://forums.adobe.com/message/4200840
If Windows, are you using the legacy Firewire driver?

Recording V.O. into GB using mic on a video camera, Possible?
Can I use the mic on my XL-1s video camera to capture a V.O. strait into my mac?
JI was wondering if there was a way to do it, I really dont think there is. importing to iMovie and extracting the audio was my first idea, just looking for shortcuts hehe I dont need to put it into GB, just need to send the file to someone to use in Flash to put on a website, he is on a PC.
Should I send it mp3 or AIFF ,I think mp3 is better.

How awkward is using the video camera?
Many folks relate that it is awkward to shoot video (due to positioning of the lens and buttons).
So, really, how bad is it?
Do you get over it fairly quickly, or is it 'perpetually awkward', like waring two left shoes?
thanks,
DarrinHere's my experiences during a recent vacation.
My finger accidently crept into more than a few shots - very un-apple like design. It happened less frequently the more I used the video function. Something that you can adjust too but probably never eliminate completely.
More than once I thought I had stopped video capture by pressing the center button only to find that I had taken a 35 minute movie of the inside of my pocket. I also missed some scenes I wanted because I was actually turning the camera off when I thought I was turning it back on. To be fair these occasions were all outdoors and I was wearing sunglasses which made it almost impossible to see the displayed controls. I didn't have the problem indoors but I have noticed a few other posts questioning the operation of the center button in video mode.
- I was happy with the quality of most of the video with two exceptions
1. outdoor scene with a very bright background at the top and the subject matter in shadows at the bottom. They came out very dark and hard to see unless the camera was only pointed at the shadow area - but this was hard to tell when shooting because the display screen washed out in the sunshine and I was again wearing sunglasses. Perhaps any camera would have problems under these conditions.
2. there is no zoom lenses so if you can't get close to small subjects you won't be happy with the results.
Overall I got what I expected, an upgrade from my first gen 1G nano, and a handy video camera that captured family memories I otherwise would have missed. I've never owned a video camera before and knew this wouldn't be a hi-def model. For me, as a "free" add-on to an iPod it was a "no brainer" as I don't shoot enough video to justify a dedicated unit. Your milage my vary. -
FCE: Possible to Capture SD footage from digital video cam?
Ok, probably a daft question this. Don't laugh...
I'm thinking of purchasing a digital video camera that uses SD cards. I currently use a MiniDV cam and connect via Firewire.
Is it possible to capture footage shot on SD cards into FCE?
And, if so, should I use USB from the camera, or insert the SD card into my card-reader?
The camera I'm looking at is able to record HD footage to a 2gb SD card (about 40 mins worth)
Thanks for your time!Cheers Tom, I think you just saved me a small fortune..

Hello,
I am a teacher and want to make some videos to post online for my class. I would like to have it set up so that I have a powerpoint presentation going, a video camera pointing at a piece of paper I can write on and another video camera pointing at me. How do I do this? I have seen several solutions but they seem to be for switching between videos whereas I want both video images to be on at the same time.
Also, is there a screen capture program you would recommend?Go to System Preferences - Sharing and change the computer name there. You can also, optionally, change the name of your hard drive to further clarify the origin of your backups. Click once on the "Macintosh HD" on your desktop, then click its name to allow you to edit it.

Can't capture from my cannon video camera to Final Cut or iMovie.
Hi. I can't capture from my cannon video camera to FInal Cut or iMovie. ANy help would be greatly appreciated. I don't think my iMac is recognizing the camera. I was told I don't need a firewire, that USB would work if I'm just capturing. If I need a firewire what kind (the one I was sold didn't fit). I'm getting an "unable to locate external device message". Not sure of next steps to try. Thanks.

You require a firewire cable.
The camera connection end will be four pin and the Mac is nine pin to the 800 port.
Ask for a 9 to 4 pin firewire cable. Sounds like you have the wrong one as they can also be 4 to 4 or 4 to 6 pin!!
Also you will need the correct Easy Setup in FCE so FCE talk to the camera, exactly which one depends on what type of footage is being sent to FCE from the camera during capture.

How can I download video from a Canon ZR30 video camera to my IMac? I have Elgato Video Capture, but the provided connectors are loose in the camera and the camera does not have a white female end. No signal shows up on the computer when I connect the red and yellow connectors.
Broken solder joints on the camera me thinks!!

Video camera capture/streaming: example implementation
If anyone is interested I have put together a very simple video capture app using LTI-CIVIL (an open source video streaming library for Java) and using JavaFX. This is a more complete/useful example of some code I posted months ago doing something similar.
Performance and reliability seems to be reasonable but I have not tested heavily.
The code (ANT build included) can be found at: http://code.google.com/p/jfxcamera/source/browse/trunk/
The code is simple (one class only) and intended to be demonstration so you can copy/paste and hack at to get it into your own project if you want. Note that the LTI-CIVIL project is nothing to do with me, I've just integrated it. If you find this at all useful thank whoever made LTI-CIVIL - my effort was trivial.
According to the website LTI-CIVIL supports the big 3 OS's but I have only tested it on Windows (only runs on a 32 bit windows JVM, there is no 64bit version of LTI-CIVIL). The code should be the same however.
http://lti-civil.org/
I realise this is hardly the full/proper support for media capture that this request is asking for but if you're really needing something while the JFX guys are working on a more integrated solution, this could be your answer.

Capture using software Video Camera
Hello,
I want to record screeb actions and insert them in my webhelp
project. These are the steps I followed:
1. Double click on the software video camera tool
The software video camera opens
2. Define the capture area
The help instructs that I should click on the "Record" button
once this has been done. However the Record and Stop button appear
dimmed and Iam unable to take the screen captures. am I missing
something?
Thanks
CP.Hi CP
I stand to be corrected, but I believe that little tool can't
handle the newer screen color depths. I think the tool came about
back when it was a luxury for some to have a display that was
capable of running 256 colors. So it expects a maximum of 256
colors.
You should probably investigate Adobe Captivate for this
purpose.
Cheers... Rick -
I cannot get CS6 to recognize my Sony DCR-TRV340 camera for capturing video from that camera. The CS6 capture box keeps putting up a message that capture device is off line. The Sony DCR-TRV340 camera is not listed in the CS6 Device Type list in the CS6 DV/HDV device control settings box of Sony cameras. I've downloaded what I think are the correct drivers for the TRV340, and when I plug the camera into the computer, the computer shows it listed in the devices and printers box, but CS6 will not recognize it. Do I need to install these drivers into a specific folder in the CS6 program? If so, where do I find these drivers in the windows 7 professional operating system, and into which CS6 file folder would I copy them to?
Most camera's are not listed in Device controle, set it to Sony and generic. Yours is very old its a Digital 8 camera (I still got a TRV210). Johns second link wont work with your camera.
You do not need to download drivers nor do you need to install anything. Most likely its the Legacy driver.
Read though this document.

General rule is connect camera to pc wait until windows reconigzes the camera.
Fire up Premiere and capture.
Never connect the camera to pc when the camera is on. -
Raspberry Pi B+ capture a image from a video cam
Hello,
is there any way to capture a image from the video camera. I didn't find any media class for video. Nor did I find any Runtime.exec to use a native linux command.
Did I overseen something?Hi Klaus,
There a few ideas in design stage, but nothing solid enough to talk about. And actually it should not have been possible with older ME as it's specifically prohibited by the spec. I mean native methods in Java applications. Of course there may be other means to communicate with native applications, like files, sockets etc. But no direct calls
The date for ME 8.1 GA (General Availability) release is not confirmed yet. But it should happen quite soon, stay tuned
Regards.

How can I capture AVHDC video files from Panasonic HD video camera??
I just received a Panasonic HS300 video camera and can't copy the video files on my computer.
I see several files in the CAM_HDD camera folder on the desktop. But the only relevant files for me to copy are the JPG photos. I don't see any video files.
In the specs of the camera they write that I should have a Mac with an Intel processor. Is that the problem???
I even tried to copy the files on a PC (I succeeded) and then brought them on my computer with a USB stick. It didn't work: again, the only relevant files that I could see were the JPG, no trace of any video (but they were indeed on that USB stick!!).
How can I access those video files and use them in Final Cut Pro, or even iMovie??
I'm becoming afraid that i won't be able to use that camera unless I buy a new Mac now!!!
thanks!you need this: http://www.shedworx.com/voltaichd
the native iMovie / FC AVCHD codecs are only for Intel Macs, the format is a highly compressed HD format which needs to be unpacked & converted for use.
The powerbook may not be up to editing these files. expect a slow process of exporting & working with the footage.

Capturing Video from Video Camera
Hey everybody. I want to start making a movie of some sort and I have a new video camera with which I would like to do it. Unfortunately, it only came with a USB plug to tranferring anything over. Is the only way to tranfer the movie over with a firewire or can I use the USB? When I plug it into the computer via USB, it doesn't recognize it and nothing comes up. What's my best option? Thanks!
firewire is the standard for dv video transfer - never heard of a camera transferring over usb. the usb cable is for transferring pictures that your video cam is capable of taking.
what camera do you have?
