Video recorded with external iSight has green dot in it.

Anybody have any idea why any video recorded by my external iSight has a green dot in it. Almost seems like the power light is somehow being reflected into the housing.

That's not very good news at all. If that's the problem I'm sure it has a lot to do with how hot it gets. I've even noticed it gets really warm and it hadn't been turned on in weeks. Just being plugged in made it hot.

When I record with my iSight camera, after a few seconds it stops recording and tell me there is "Dropfame" images. What do I have to make?

A few weeks ago, my camera doesn't do that, but since 1-2 weeks it becomes impossible to record with it.

I have adobe creative suite 5.5 and have just bought a Sony Video Recorder with 4K. What preset should I use for importing video footage? Alternatively do I need a more recent version of the software?

BUG: Videos recorded with Lumia Camera can't be at...

In Lumia Camera 4.9.3.0 on my Lumia 1020 OS version 8.10.14219.341, videos recorded with the Lumia Camera software cannot be attached to MMS messages. It doesn't matter what size or length they are or wether they were recorded with the front facing or rear facing camera... they won't attach to MMS messages.
Instead, I have to load the Microsoft Camera app record the video with that, and that will allow sharing via MMS. It's a pretty annoying bug with Lumia Camera.
>>I was told to post this message to the nokia forums here after it was originally posted in the Windows Phone answer forums here.<<

Good day, adamz1977. We would like to know more about your concern. Are you getting any error message when trying to attach a video? Have you already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Lumia Camera app? How are you trying to share it? Is it via Photos hub or via Messaging hub? Let's try isolating the issue. You may try updating the system apps. Go to Store > ... > settings > check for updates. If you haven't checked if there's an available update for your phone, here's how: Software Update for Lumia with Windows Phone 8. We look forward to your reply.

And what is the point of all this? CS3 is now 7 years old and Office 2003 just the same. Yes, sometimes software has bugs and compatibility issues. Beyond there is nothing here to discuss on either end, given the circumstances...

I recently installed Mavericks and now I can't video chat with sister who has ichat, is there a fix?

Is ichat on an older machine compatible with Mavericks Messages video chatting? Is there something I can do to video chat with someone who has ichat on an older machine? They aren't going to upgrade so am I stuck with Skype? We really liked ichat.

Yes, I can video chat with someone on Skype. I only ichat with my younger sister and she doesn't ichat with anyone else. I don't have anyone else to try out the video chatting with in Messages. She's not tech savy and doesn't feel comfortable doing anything to her program. A friend may try to get her up and running on Skype, we just liked chatting with the Mac programs.

No Audio on Videos Recorded with OS 2

Hello After a few days with the version 2 I just realized that when I transfer the videos I recorded with my PB to my MAC, the videos dosen´t have audio.
All the videos recorded with the OLD PB version does have audio.
I have PB 2.0.0.7971 and Mac OSX 10.7.3
Thank you.
PS. All videos work great on PB.

No, I imported by two different ways:
1.- Direct from PB as USB.
2.- Importing media from BlackBerry Desktop Software.
In both cases same result no audio in videos recorded with PB 2.0

Ipod Video 80gb with click wheel has sound, but no audio

My ipod video 80gb with click wheel has sound, but no audio. I can hear the clicking of the wheel and selections made through the headphones, but I cannot get music, video, etc. to play audio. I did the 5 R's and installed a new headphone jack prior to posting here. I am all out of ideas and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you connect it to an iPod Dock Stereo to check if there is music, coming out, if not the Hard Reset would solve your problem or else the Audio chip has called it a day.
I know you mentioned doing the 5Rs, but did you see the Apple Logo and the language prompt? Sorry, most of the users here, doesn't do the Hard Reset correctly.
Try the iPod Hard Reset -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON, then release the button
Select your preferred language.
This wont delete or erase any song/data on your iPod Classic.
See this Apple Support Article on 5Rs

Good Luck!

Cannot record movie with external iSight

I'm trying to use an external iSight camera to shoot some video on my MacBook Pro.
When I select the built-in iSight cam in QuickTime preferences, I'm able to capture video without any problems. When I select the external iSight cam and try to capture video, the green LED on top of the cam is lit but there is no output to the movie recording window.
If I click on the red record button, wait a few seconds, and then click it again, I get a pop-up that says: "Recording failed because no data was received."
The external iSight works just fine with both Skype video and iChat.

I have the same problem. I have a mac pro and i have an external iSight that doesn't work, however my laptop works fine with quicktime and its built in iSight. It works fine with iChat and iMovie, but i cant seem to make it work with Quicktime X or 7. I also get the same error. The Video feed from the iSight isn't showing in QT, the screen is all black, the counter stays at 00:00 after pressing the record button.
Ive heard of a fix, replacing this file: QuickTimeUSBVDCDigitizer.component
I just cant seem to find it anywhere.

IMac can I swap builtin isight with external isight??

I need the ability to record other parts of the room for emails and short imovie clips, and the built in isight on my iMac is about worthless unless I want to pick up the whole thing and carry it around or else have everyone try to run over in front of the computer every time I want to record, so I was wanting to buy a regular cabled iSight and connect it instead if that would work, but dont want to waste money if there is no way to disable the built-in to allow that. I have tried using my Quickcam that works with my Powerbook and iBook, but the iMac wont recognize it and instead forces the stupid builtin isight to come on in every application instead. Does anyone know for sure if I go buy an external isight that it will work to overrride the builtin or at least allow me to choose between it and the built-in? Thanks.

Hi,
As Alex says the answer is yes.
All apps will tend to default to the Firewire connection.
However iChat has an extra Drop down appear in iChat > Preferences > Video Section to select the camera of choice.
In PhotoBooth there is no choice it defaults to Firewire.
Also have a look at this Utility

Audio problems with external iSight

Hi guys,
I have been racking my brain with a problem that I have (I think) narrowed down to my external iSight.
It initially showed up in Skype, but have confirmed in iChat also.
The problem is no audio. I do have video in both apps.
I have:
1. deleted the com.apple.audio.devicesettings.plist
2. reinstalled OS via Combo update
3. unpluged firwire multiple times - plus restart
4. repaired permissions - multiple times
5. Checked that iSight is recognized in System profiler>FireWire
6. deleted Skype and reinstalled an earlier version (2.7.0.330)
7. other things that are a blur now!!!
One key may be that every time I restart, my sound preferences>input is alway reset to lowest (off) position - even though I reset each time - even after deleting the .plist file above.
This outfit has been set upon this machine for years and never a problem until now.
Whew...
Any ideas?

Jim,
Tried both. Neither worked.
Tomorrow I will try an even older audio pref file.
I do not have another firewire device to trade out to check the connection, but since I have video, and confirmation in System Profiler, I am supposing it is good.
That sound input is still "resticking" at 0 at every restart.
Any other suggestions gentlemen? or Ladies...
Thanks for the thought process.
John
You're welcome, John.
Here are three more:
(1) Use Disk Utility to repair permissions. Then download and apply the 10.5.8 COMBO update:
http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_8_ComboUpdate
Repair permissions IMMEDIATELY again after the restart that finishes the installation.
Then test again to see if it helps the problem.
(2) If properly applying the Combo Update does not resolve your problem, you may have problems within the basic system software.
Reinstall OS X 10.5 (Leopard). If you need help, see the instructions in the user manual that came with your Mac if it originally shipped with Leopard. If you Mac came with an earlier version of Mac OS X, follow the instructions that came with your Leopard Upgrade DVD.
After reinstalling 10.5.x, you can update to the latest version (10.5.8) Leopard in one update step by using the process in (1) above. Then check again for proper function of your system settings.
(3) If none of the suggestions you get resolve your problem and you do not want to continue reconfiguring your settings each time you restart, contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.

Digital Video Recorder with Firewire 400 and new iMac

I just got a new iMac which has only 1 firewire800 and no firewire 400 ports. My digital video camcorder has a firewire 400 cable to transfer taped recordings to the computer (I want to import using iMovie 09). So, do I simply need to buy a new firewire 800 cable that will plug into my digital camcorder? The reason I'm hesitant is that I've tried using a USB connection, and iMovie 09 didn't open and doesn't recognize that the digital camcorder is connected when I use USB. Does iMovie 09 just no longer recognize my several year old Samsung digital camcorder, or does it just not recognize it with a USB connection, and it will be fine if I get a firewire 800 connection that fits the new iMac? Is there another type of converter--e.g., a cable that allows a firewire 400 to plug in on one end and has the firewire 800 connection on the other end?
Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I went ahead and got a new cable and now I can plug for digital video camcorder into my new Mac. Unfortunately, as I feared, the Mac still doesn't recognize the camcorder. I checked the system profiler with the camcorder plugged in, and under Firewire Bus it reads Unknown Device:
FireWire Bus:
Maximum Speed: Up to 800 Mb/sec
Unknown Device:
Manufacturer: 0xF0
Model: Unknown
GUID: 0xF000FFFFFFFF
Maximum Speed: Up to 400 Mb/sec
Connection Speed: Up to 400 Mb/sec
Sub-units:
Unknown Unit:
Unit Software Version: 0x10001
Unit Spec ID: 0xA02D
Am I just out of luck--the new mac just doesn't recognize my slightly out of date digital video recorder? Or should I be able to get a driver to make it work?

Can't use voice/video functionality with external domain connected users through federation

Hello All,
Hope you keeping well..!!
We are communicating with external customers lync server through federation option setup on our corporate lync server. We have received the federation setting from the customer with SIP address which has been setup on our corporate lync servers after
that we were able to browse the customer contact through corporate lync account.
We were also able to chat with external customer but however voice/video functionality are not working through same session. Whenever we try to dial out external customer lync account it ended with error message "call ended due to network issue".
We have checked the setting from corporate lync servers and network point of view but doesn't find any issue which cause the disconnection to voice/video over lync. Could you pl help or guide with the way to resolve the issue.
Thanks, MK

Thanks for your reply.<o:p></o:p>
Audio/Video works fine within corporate when dial any lync contact. We only have issue while trying to use the same functionality with any other
external lync contact configured over federation option.<o:p></o:p>
We already checked the security rules and all required ports are open, as confirmed by local resolver group.<o:p></o:p>
We have checked with external parties and according to them their systems are hosted by Microsoft as part of office 365 suite and they already have
federation option for 17 different customers which works fine. Which means issue must be your local end.<o:p></o:p>
Is there any tool available to identify the issue from client end?<o:p></o:p>
Also I have a question here....In my corporate environment...client is sitting in India and lync servers are hosted in UK and users connect to it
over MPLS route. In Client lync configuration we have internal/external servers configured .....so when i tried to make a voice call with external lync users then I see from netstat -a command that traffic hitting to multiple public IP addresses
directly from my machine..<o:p></o:p>
Does it mean that client required internet connectivity with specific open media ports to connect with external parties for video/voice? or in ideal
case all request should handle by corporate internal server which should took UK internet path to connect with external lync contact?
Thanks, MK

Does anyone have any ideas that could help us? I am having her download skype to see if thats more successful but this is going to be our primary mode of contact for the next year and I am REALLY worried. We are both using external iSights and we tried audio with and without them plugged in.
Everytime either of us tries anything it gets the the stage where it says "connecting" then gives the error message.
Any help would be really appreciated!
Thanks,

Hi,
Hotels are notoriously difficult for iChat because of the way
1) the ports are not always open
2) the number of people sharing the connection.
For Mail you probably have POP and SMTP server set for one location and the hotel's ISP is not letting you go to those though their server. Web Mail may be the only way around this.
Ask the hotel if they have the ports open for iChat.
You may not be able to do much about the Bandwidth/user issue.
I take it you have done the Quicktime setting as you have posted before.

Static with external iSight & Mac Pro

I've got an external iSight that works fine with my ibook G4 but produces annoying static or noise when I use it with my new Mac Pro. The picture has a closely spaced series of white horizontal lines down the right hand side. You can see a screencapture here:

Has anybody else seen this? Does anyone have any solutions?

The camera is connected directly - the computer is a Mac Pro though, not a macbook.
I've since tried it on another G4 based mac and the camera is fine there, as well as on another intel based machine which gives the same sort of noise in the picture.

Video recorded with external iSight has green dot in it.
