Video Capture in Mavericks Results in a MOV with Red Overlay

I discovered today when using the iShowU and Quicktime video screen capture utilities that iMovie shows the MOV files with a bright red overlay.   Previous MOV files before Mavericks are not affected.   I managed a workaround by discovering that in iShowU, the red screen did not come up on captures that had the 'follow mouse' option checked.   On these captures, the screen focus follows the mouse pointer rather than staying fixed.
Quicktime is able to capture and display the MOV files unaffected, so it would appear that the issue is with the combination of iMovie and Mavericks.

FCPX shows these .mov files with red overlay too.
temporary workaround is to open these mov files with quicktime pro and export them as mp4 for example.
after that the screen recording appear without red overlay in FCPX

  • IPhone 3GS - Video Capture during Phone Call

    I just found out that iPhone disables making Videos when I'm on a call.
    This really ***** - It lets me taking the photos, but no video option.
    It can't be the processing power needed - as this is 3Gs and has lots of power under the hood
    I know Video captures Audio as well in the movie - so what - it should still be able to make a video with the voice capture thru the Mic.
    This is totally stupid of Apple. Video is a very useful feature and one of the reasons I paid $560 to upgrade and a bad implementation.

    I Just ReRead This And It May Seem A Little Confusing. I Am Talking About The iPhone 4 NOT 4S

  • Video Capture Card for Adobe Connect

    Does anyone have any recommendations for a video capture card for the Mac to use with Adobe Connect? I have a HD camera that I want to connect to my Mac through the S video connection on the camera. I need a video capture card that will work with Adobe Connect.

    The Video Telephony Pod is the video pod when Video Telephony Conferencing equipment/cameras are configured to talk with Adobe Connect. This was introduced in Connect 8.1 for SIP and H.264  based VTC systems. It will only work with H.264 video streams from the VTC type cameras found in conference rooms. Usually the major players in the U.S. are Polycom and Tandberg.
    The VTC Pod appears as a standard pod once the administrator of an Adobe Connect on-premise server has configured the various admin screens and added the SIP addesees to the configuration xml file.
    The video quality is different than the webcam video as here is a table:
    Tandberg 990:
    Profile Level At FMG End
    Video Out At Device
    High
    1200.0kbps  448p
    Medium
    600.0 kbps   448p
    Low
    250kbps       CIF
    Tandberg Edge 95 MXP:
    Profile Level At FMG End
    Video Out At Device
    High
    1700 kbps w720p
    Medium
    600kbps    w448p
    Low
    250kbps    w288p
    More information on formats:
    768 x 448@30fps (w448p)
    576 x 448@30fps (448p)
    512 x 288@30fps (w288p)
    352 x 288@30fps (CIF)
    176 x 144@30fps (QCIF)
    So, that HIGH, MEDIUM and LOW refer to the Adobe Connect room preference setting for video. Notice that HIGH shows we can deliver 720p resolution.
    The normal webcam video pod is locked to 480p (VGA) 4x3 resolution at 20 frames per second but the server admin on an on-premise install  can alter a configuration xml file to go 24 fps but not higher than VGA on the webcam pod.
    Probably more than you ever imagined I would share but that's my style.
    Take care.

  • Video Capture with the iMac

    Hi. Not quite a computer nerd so bear with me please
    I purchased a Kaiser Baas VHS to DVD video capture thingo the other day and really wanted to use it on my 20" iMac (at the time with Mac OS X Leopard) with my PS2. It's a Empia USB 2861 device? Am I right?
    So I installed the driver it came with connected it to my iMac, connected the PS2, opened up Empia capture (that it came with) and I got some nice video capture BUT NO SOUND! When I go into the sound settings of Empia capture, the device doesn't even come up in the source list. So went through a million forums on the net and discussions and couldn't find anything to help me.
    So then.... I looked at my beautiful new 13" MacBook with Mac OS X Snow Leopard. Plugged in the Kaiser Baas video capture device, installed it, connected my PS2, opened up Empia Capture and found some nice video capture AS WELL AS SOUND TO GO WITH IT! Perfect exactly what I wanted.... BUT on a 13" MacBook.
    I really want this all on my 20" iMac. So then I thought... maybe it was to do with Leopard and Snow Leopard, so thought I might as well upgrade to Snow Leopard on the iMac tisn't thaaaaaat expensive.
    But still doesn't work.....
    Anyone know what's going on?

    I have no idea how to help you, but I thought I'd point out that you posted your iMac question in the MacBook forum. <G> You may get more responses if you post [here|http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=132].

  • Supported Video Capture Devices?????

    I recently purchased the Adobe Photoshop Elements Premium 8.0.  I am now looking for a VIDEO CAPTURE DEVICE that is supported for use with this software.  Adobe offically only says Matrox brand devices are acceptable but these devices are expensive.
    I've also heard about the Canopus 110 for about $200.
    If anyone can make a suggestion on which Capture Device to use, which ones are recommended or the one that just seems to work best, I would appreciate it.

  • Elgato video capture versus digital 8 camcorder to import hi 8 movies

    Hi!
    I have hi 8 video tapes which i want to import into my MacBook.
    I would like to work on them with iMovie 09, cut them, set titles etc. put music on and so on.
    Earlier I plugged my hi 8 camcorder into my panasonic DMR E85H dvd recorder with built in hdd.
    Then i importet them via handbrake into my MacBook.
    Then i importet them into iMovie 08 an did some cutting and so on.
    Then i recognized, that there where horizontal interferences in the movie.
    On the dvds the video is ok!
    It doesn´t matter if i play the videos in Quicktime or in iTunes or iMovie.
    If i would use a Elgato Video Capture to import or a digital 8 camcorder to import the videos to my MacBook would i be able to get a better result?
    Which one should i prefer - i have to buy each of them!
    Would the size of the camcorder-imported videos be bigger then with the Elgato device?
    Now i´m using iMovie 09.
    Thanks a lot for helping me out!

    Based on your comments about horizontal interferences, it may be that you are seeing interlace artifacts. The solution may be to deinterlace the clips.
    You might try checking the settings in handbrake to deinterlace.
    You might also take the clip you have produced in HB and deinterlacing using a free tool like MPEG Streamclip or JES Deinterlacer.
    Your MPEG2 on DVD is already compressed from the original on tape. Then HandBrake decompresses and recompresses it to h.264. You generally want to cut out compression steps in your workflow whenever possible, because each generation of compression will introduce noise and loss.
    You could also reimport from DVD using MPEG Streamclip (and the Apple QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component). You could deinterlace at this step if needed.
    You could certainly import through a camcorder with passthru capability. It will be DV which will be a very high data rate and potentially high quality, but it will never be higher quality than the underlying analog material. But you will have eliminated a compression step so you will be closer to the original.
    ElGato products will certainly work as well. I use the ElGato EyeTV hybrid to capture from a VHS Deck, as well as to record high definition TV shows. My ElGato will capture to MPEG2, although the newer models may capture directly to MPEG4 (not sure). You would then use the ElGato software to export to iMovie in an editable format such as h.264 or Apple Intermediate Codec.

  • Is there video capture software which will capture only the canvas and not my cursor or the way I move the canvas?

    Hi,
    Does anybody know of a video capture software which only captures the canvas and not my cursor or the way I move the canvas?
    I want to simulate a painting being created brush stroke by brush stroke. It would also be good if I could select the layer that it is meant to be recording.
    I guess this would have to be a plugin of some sort.
    If not - do you have any good suggestions of the best workflow of creating this from Photoshop to After Effects (I don't want to use revealing paths etc...)
    Thanks for any help,
    Luke

    It would also be good if I could select the layer that it is meant to be recording.
    That won't work. Screen cap tools by their nature always capture the display buffer of the whole active window. At best, they respect GDI "drawing layers" and regions like Camtasia does, meaning they differntiate between mouse cursors, window frames and the actual content to get more efficient compression. For the rest - see the previous answer.

  • I am not seeing video on files captured in PPCC and saved as .mov.

    >captured DV video in PP and it was saved as .mov
    Please explain the above, step by step... are you digitizing an analog source, such as playing a VHS tape through a digitizing device to then save a file on your hard drive?
    If not what I just described... what are you doing?
    Also, mov is a wrapper, what is inside YOUR wrapper?

    Jon,
    What Julianne said at first about re-linking made perfect sense and I followed it easily, had actually already been there.  But in my situation now, it didn't have any effect.  The directory of folders which had already been added were still just as they were, and the outstanding balance are not in the desired position.  And the folders which had been brought in earlier today when I clicked "synchronize folder", were still missing all the metadata.
    Maybe this means I need to start over, and I'm fine about doing that that, but I don't know what it takes to accomplish that.  I'm concerned now that any changes I make out of guesswork could only make the problem harder to resolve.  It just feels to me like something I did at the beginning just wasn't right, and now it's a tangle.
    Can you advise?
    Thanks,

  • Anyone using Elgato Video Capture with good results?

    I've got some VHS tapes that I want to edit in iMovie '11 (and/or FCE).
    Viewed on a TV monitor, the image quality of the tapes varies from acceptable to very good - but I am very disappointed with the quality of the video once imported, using Elgato Video Capture, to my MBP. It is very indistinct and washed out. Only the audio remains as clear as the original.
    Anyone had any success with using Video Capture to convert old tapes?
    Any advice and/or feedback would be much appreciated!

    Thanks Coolmax - I tried that, but no discernible improvement unfortunately.
    These are the tech specs from the Elgato site:
    Video resolution: 640×480 (4:3) or 640×360 (16:9)
    Video format: H.264 at 1.4 MBit/sec or MPEG-4 at 2.4 MBit/sec
    Audio: AAC, 48kHZ, 128 kBit/sec
    I've tried both H.264 and MPEG-4 without much success. The resulting footage is always extremely grainy and 'muddy'. Any other ideas?
    If I understand this correctly, Elgato can save your footage either in H.264 or MPEG-4 and you tried both. If the original file plays with ok quality and the resulting footage after being finalized by iMovie 11 look worse, I think we need to determine what are you finalizing to?
    In "Export to Quicktime", you can choose the compressor to "none". Do this with a short clip as the resulting file will be big. Play back this video.
    If there is a degradation in video, then you know it is iMovie 11 process that is causing it. From here on, you can further compress the video using Handbrake and adjust the settings to give best quality vs size.
    There are software available on the PC side that can enhance and resize an already weak VHS captured footage and make it look better before you import it into iMovie 11. But this require quite a bit of computer horsepower to complete it in any acceptable time frame.

  • How to fix audio  of a video captured from DV output of camcorder using Adobe Premiere Elements 8?

    Hello,
    I purchased Adobe Premiere Elements 8 about one week ago.  I installed it and everything seem to work well in my first project.  I am new at editing videos but I was succesful in testing it by loading an existing video file in avi format from my computer and then doing some very basic editing (I splitted 2 scenes and added a title). 
    After my first succesful project (described above) I started a brand new project. Here, I want to capture a one hour video  from the dv output of a video camera. So I connected the camera to the PC and then started adobe elements 8.  Before starting the capture I only checked the boxes that said "capture video" and "capture audio" (the other 2 boxes that said download to timeline and autoanalyze were left unchecked).  After that I started the capture process.
    After the video capture was completed, a small window opened at the bottom saying that a PEAK FILE was being generated.    After the peak file generation finished, I looked at the captured video.  The video looked perfect.  However the audio of the video was too fast. By this, I mean that the voices of the people in the movie were like they were speaking at more than twice the normal speed.  Or to explain it in a different way, they sounded like the  chipmunks.
    So now I come to the question of this thread I started.  Is there a way that I can fix the audio part of the video I captured?  I will appreciate any help on this. Below I listed a few additional details in case this is needed.
    Thanks,
    ronel_8
    PS.  Here are some more details about my system:
    1) Operating System: Windows XP
    2) I am capturing the video on an external drive with 40 GB of available space. The external drive is connected to a PC via a USB connection.
    3) Computer CPU: 2.4 GHZ
    4) Computer RAM: 1.25 GB
    5) Video tape is about one hour long.

    Hello Bill and Steve,
    Your responses are very helpful.  Although I was not able to fix the problem yet I do seem to think from what you both say that my system may be too slow to capture the one hour video. In any case I will copy below more details about the system as you requested:
    1) Results from running Gspot:
    The audio section of the Gspot window was blank. That is, no information was there.  The File and Container sections say:
    File Size: 12.6 GB
    Note: 7.63 GB unneeded bytes at the end of the file
    DV Type1 AVI
    2) I did run the Gspot on another good avi file (captured to the PC with same camcorder) and says:
    Codec PCM Audio
    32kHz 1024 kb/s tot (2 chnls).
    I suppose these are the audio settings from the camera.
    3) Yes, I am capturing video from a miniDV camcorder (JVC GR-D70U).
    4) I did not defragment the external drive prior to capturing the video with the audi problem.  So I will give that I try and see if it solves the problem.
    5) The external drive I am using is formatted to NTFS.
    6) The computer is a Dell Dimension 2400, CPU: 2.4 GHZ, RAM: 1.25 GB
    7) HDD Size=74GB and 11 GB of free space.  But I am downloading video to external drive that has 60 GB free space.
    One last piece of information that may be useful.  If I open the AVI file (that I captured with Adobe Premiere Elements) with Windows Media Player, the audi sounds good.  However if I open it with Adobe it has the problem I mentioned in my previous e-mail.
    I'll aprreciate any further hints.
    Thanks again,
    ronel_8

  • 1080p live video capture from camcorder to MacBook

    Is there a device or adapter that will connect the 1080p from a video camcorder's HDMI out to a MacBook's thunderbolt or usb port with QuickTime receiving the camcorder's video and audio when "New Movie Recording" is selected from that application?
    Or more succinctly, can I turn my 1080p camcorder into a webcam?
    Camcorders have better image quality than webcams (okay, maybe not necessarily JVC, but Canon's do) and more features, such as 38x zoom.   And my MacBook has a much nicer and bigger screen than that little LCD fold-out piece all camcorders have.   So combining the superior video capture of the camcorder with the superior display capability of the MacBook along with the advantage of live recording directly to the MacBook's harddrive (no intermediate SD card file transfer step from device to device) would result in an enhanced video capturing experience.   All that is required is some adapter that will take HDMI from the camera and translate it into something the MacBook will see as a webcam (usb or thunderbolt).   So where do I find such an adapter?

    What brand and model is your camcorder?
    From this we can determine what format it outputs in, because you capture with the output format from your camcorder. You then, after editing, use PRE to Share your project as MPEG2.
    These are the import video sources supported by PRE:
    If your camcorder manual is telling you that it outputs MPEG2 (this is a standard definition format) try the 'DVD Camcorder or PC DVD Drive' format.

  • 10.4.9 breaks FC video capture

    Installing the 10.4.9 Update on my eMac 1.42ghz G4 system essentially broke Final Cut's video capture capabilities, showing the same failures with both my FC 4.5 HD and FC Express 2.0 versions of the program.
    I have taken a number of steps to confirm that the problem source is the 10.4.9 update, including re-installing 10.4.0 from DVD and then running capture tests before and after re-installing the 10.4.9 software update.
    Under 10.4.9 it was impossible to capture more than a few seconds of uninterrupted DV video, even though I was using equipment, software and procedures that had performed reliably many dozens of times previously. Watching the access LED's on my external hard drive illuminated the core of the problem (possibly an issue with storage buffering or Firewire).
    When video capture is functioning correctly the system writes to the drive with frequent short bursts at a rate of several times a second. Running under 10.4.9 the video capture attempts have very long periods with no drive activity, followed by long continuous writes. While
    those long writes are taking place the input video freezes and falls silent, both on the preview screen and in the resulting movie file on hard disk.
    One odd note is that, in testing, I was able to get a few usable video captures by setting the device control to "non-controllable device" and using "Capture Now" mode. However, EVERY capture attempt with device control set to "Firewire" or "Firewire BASIC" would fail and, once the capture function breaks, it stays broken until the system is rebooted, regardless of subsequent device control adjustments or capture mode.
    I currently have the system re-installed and re-updated to 10.4.7 and my Final Cut video capture is functioning normally. Based on considerable knowledge of computing and media systems, my own experiences with the 10.4.9 update, and other comments about 10.4.9 that I have read elsewhere,
    this latest OSeX update seems to make changes to some critical, low level functions that have the potential of breaking a great deal of software and peripherals. My standing advice to clients and colleagues will be to stay away from 10.4.9 until such time as Apple addresses
    the apparent compatibility problems.
    peace
    ......

    I'm afraid I can't help you other than to suggest you
    post your Final Cut issues in the Final Cut forum
    area here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=
    123
    I doubt the 10.4.9 broke anything.
    I am a very knowledgable and experienced systems tech and have done extensive trouble testing trying to resolve this issue. Acknowledging that there are very large numbers of variables involved in any modern computer process, I have scientifically confirmed that, at least for this system / model / software combination, 10.4.9 is definitely the variable that is breaking my video capture capabilities.
    Having stepped through the most of the OS updates under identical hardware, software and preference settings:
    OSeX 10.3.x to 10.4.8 == capture functions normally
    OSex updated to 10.4.9 == capture broken
    Exactly which of the many variables in the 10.4.9 update is causing the breakage is up to Apple to determine; I don't have access the source code like I do with my GNU OSS & Linux systems.
    Still, per your suggestion, I will cross post this issue to the Final Cut list. There is always the possibility that some hidden variable in the equation could be causing the conflicts between the software versions I need to rely on and 10.4.9, though I have already tested a number of hardware and preference configurations to eliminate the most probable suspects.
    peace

  • FX5200 Video Capture Question

    Hello, I just bought an MSI FX5200 with Video In today. I got it installed and all the drivers for it no problem. But when I went to capture video from my camcorder (I was using an older video capture card before) I noticed that I could have higher resolutions but I couldn't change the pixel depth/compression. It was stuck on UYVY. After recording a few videos like this, I noticed that they were coming out very choppy with some lines on the frames and ocassionally a white box would cover have of the video. I do have my frame rate set to 30fps, but that doesn't seem to help. However, when I decrease the resolution to tv size, it helps a little but the result file is still very ugly.
    Now, I would really like to use this card because it has S-video and higher resolutions, so I was wondering if there was a way I could change the file format to RGB. I'm not eactly sure how this pixel compression things work cause I had the option to change the compression on my older video card. Can someone help me out?

    movie maker does not give me a vidio option.  It only allows audio.  I can not configure it since it is grayed out.  I will check the other discs for software that I did not load.  ANy other tips would be appreciated.
    Thanks.
