Ubuntu Multimedia :: Extracting Video From Camcorder
Mar 12, 2010
I've had this camcorder for a while, and my knowledge on them were little back years ago when we got it. Any ways the video is recorded on a tape that comes with it. If I had known then, I would have made sure it was recorded onto the SD card. Anyways there is this old video that I wanted to extract and I have Kino installed and have my camcorder connected to the computer with a firewire cable. Kino/Ubuntu does not seem to recognize an input. Though the camcorder does. Anyone know if there is something I'm supposed to do?

I have a Hitachi HDD Camcorder here that I'm trying to import video from that was taken with the camcorder. I cannot seem to figure it out. If I plug in USB nothing happens. Nothing mounts... just nada. The same thing happens with Windows XP as well. What can I do to import this video?

A relative of mine who uses Debian 6.0.2 has bought a Samsung HMX-H300 Camcorder which records videos in:
1. H.264 (MPEG4 part10/AVC) format
2. High Definition Video (HD-VIDEO)
3. Standard Definition Video.
I notice that the PC requirement for the camcorder's bundled software, apart from the usual Windows XP SP2/Vista/Windows 7, lists an Intel Core Duo 1.66 minimum CPU and an NVIDIA GeForce 8500 or higher or ATI HD 2600 series or higher.
My relative has an old Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 2.30GHz computer which only has an AGP GeForce FX 5200 but after copying the videos from the Memory Card to /home it is just about possible to play them using Totem Movie Player and VLC but, although the audio is OK the video is painfully slow or almost stationary.
Is there a way to view the videos recorded in these formats with this hardware? Can they be converted to another format? Or should he consider buying a better computer?

I'm trying to use Kino in Ubuntu Maverick Meerkat with a Canon ZR45MC Digital Video Camcorder. Kino is capturing the video, but not the audio.I have it connected by a DV Firewire. I've used it with Windows Movie Maker that way, and it worked fine.

I'm trying to extract the audio from an mp4 video file and convert it to mp3 using ffmpeg. The problem is that the resulting audio file is only 3m2s long, whereas the video file is 8m15s long. Anyone know why the audio file is being truncated? Am I doing something wrong? Apart from being truncated the mp3 file plays perfectly. Here's what ffmpeg has to say about the video file:
Code:
Seems stream 1 codec frame rate differs from container frame rate: 59.83 (59834/1000) -> 29.92 (359/12)
Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from 'Part1.mp4':
Duration: 00:08:15.60, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 541 kb/s
Stream #0.0(und): Audio: aac, 44100 Hz, stereo, s16
Stream #0.1(und): Video: h264, yuv420p, 1152x720, 29.92 tbr, 29.92 tbn, 59.83 tbc
And here's the command I'm using to extract and convert the audio:
Code:
ffmpeg -i Part1.mp4 -ab 128k Part1.mp3

I just got a Canon Vixia HF 200 Camcorder. It stores data on an SD card. I was able without difficulty to copy the files to my Fedora 13 (64 bit) system. There are a bunch of .mts files in a Stream Folder, which I assume contain the videos I made. Some searching with google suggested mplayer might be able to play these videos. When I try that, I get an Mplayer 'boombox' icon playing the audio, but no video.
How to Get info about state of things at present with high definition video.and Linux? If necessary I can use the Windows software that came with the camera, but I would like to do as much as I can with Fedora. To start, I would like to play the videos and also to write them to a DVD which I can play on my DVD player, BlurRay if possible.

I installed Ubuntu Studio because Im interested in film making. (Social commentary / Social Psychology)
The thing is, I can't seem to get my camcorder which is a Sony trv 620 e to be even seen by the system. It doesnt appear on lspci, when its switched on, Ive started both Kino and Kdenlive as root and not as root, nothing.
Ive trawled the forums and am still in the same boat. In Synaptic, Ive ticked everything to do with IEEE 1394 too!
I cant afford a new camcorder and this one, whilst old takes beautifully clear moving images on digital8tapes.)

I usually use dvgrab to make an .avi file from the video on our mini dv camcorder and save it to my pocket drive.
Right now I edit this from the pocket drive in Windows 7 on my laptop with Sony's Vegas movie studio HD 9.0 I'm having issues with the laptop lately and with out bogging down in too many details I have to burn the edited video back to the mini DV tape and transfer speeds are causing me problems.
Is there a Linux video editing software that would let me export back to the camcorder? OpenShot doesn't seem to have that option and from what I remember of PiTiVi it doesn't either.

I have a Pinnacle IEEE 1394 card which according to Yast/Hardware Information seems to be installed and recognised correctly.
Trying to use Kino to download from a Camcorder via IEEE 1394 nothing happens and looking at Kino Preferences IEEE 1394 tab it tells me:
"The IEEE Subsystem is not responding. The raw 1394 module must be loaded, and you must have read and write access to /dev/raw1394."
I do not have an entry /dev/raw1394 on my system. Files libraw1394 and libraw1394-8 were installed by default(SUSE 11.3 64bit), and I have since installed any others offered which were libraw1394-8-32bit, libraw1394-devel, libraw1394-devel-32bit but to no avail.

I installed the MOTU ffmpeg and libav ppa in Natty beta, the installation went through ok and media players all work. But I am having problems converting MP4 to MP3 (extracting audio) with the error message that libmp3lame unknown encoder. I checked that lame and libmp3lame0 are both installed. I wonder what might have been the missing piece.

I want to watch a certain video on [url]...., but I get an error message instead. Some videos can be played, so I'm thinking it's a form of restriction, but I can't be sure.I tried using a few proxies, but on some the error message persists and on others the video doesn't load. I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 and Firefox 3.5.8.

When I play large HD videos in mplayer, the video and sound frequently get out of sync, and the video plays a little strangely (occasionally speeding up and occasionally slowing down).
I think it's because mplayer is only running on a single core. As I've got a quad-core processor, it seems inefficient. I've seen that there is theoretically a way to get mplayer to work with multicore setups, but it requires compiling with different options. That'd take me a little while to work through.
Ideally there would be a pre-compiled version in the software centre, or a player which has support built in (again, ideally in the software centre). Is there such a thing available?

I have a video file in which the audio runs faster than the video, so they quickly go out of sync. The way to fix it would be to separate the audio and video streams, speed up the video (the audio is FINE, it's the video that's wrong), and then recombining them. What is the easiest way for doing that?

video playback is like I have applied a blueish sepia filter over it. And this is just the playback from totem player or mplayer, and not the playback from ..... (and generally online streaming) - this works just fine. this messy video playback also appears when I use cheese to capture video with my webcam. Note that the preview picture of the video file on nautilus has the natural colours it should have.
at first when I installed the os this particular problem didn't exist, but it came up the time I decided to follow the "comprehensive multimedia guide". So now I have all the pros of following the guide, but this is a major con...

this happens with both VLC and Totem, when in either of those programs playing a video, if I click on one of the top menus, say View in Totem, the video stays on top of the drop down options. In order to see the options I have to hover over them with the mouse at which point they become momentarily visible. I read a post somewhere where someone had a similar problem and it was solved by reinstalling Compiz, but I've tried uninstalling it entirely, reinstalling it, etc. and none of it works. It doesn't happen with flash videos in firefox, it does happen with visualisations in Totem, and it only started happening since I upgraded to 11.04.

My system: Pentium 4 3.6 GHz, 3 Gb DDR ram, GeForce 210 video card, Ubuntu 10.04.
I have previously used Cinelerra-cv (on Karmic) and recently Openshot (on Lucid) with not much trouble. I have been sampling other video editors (Kdenlive, avidemux, kino etc). Now I have my video card crashing whichever I use, mainly when trying to load clips. I have disabled Compiz, uninstalled all video editors and then reinstalled one at a time. I still get early video crashes whichever I try.

I am setting up a MythTV environment to switch from Windows based MediaPortal (with a high number of disturbing bugs). Yet, I have three difficulties, which I want to discuss with you. They are:
- No audio via HDMI see [URL]
- Video resolution seems to change during video playback
- Channels cannot be found via DVB-S [URL]
As you can see, I have created three posts to keep discussions focused.
Alltogether I have the following setup:
- AMD 5050e CPU
- 8 GByte RAM
- Biostar TA890GXE
- Samsung LE40M86BD, connected via HDMI (and only HDMI)
- Mythbuntu 10.10 with proprietary drivers installed
- Technisat Skystar HD2 DVB-S card (two times)
Now, here is the problem:
Whenever I playback any video material using e.g. VLC, the screen resolution changes. This also applies when playback the video in a window and not fullscreen. The problem is that whenever the screen resolution changes, short time later the TV set blanks screen and show the TV set specific information "unsupported video mode".
How can I enforce to stay in the configured video mode?

I recently switched to Linux. I got a Camcorder connected to my machine via firewire that under Win i used as a webcam. So I want the same to work in debian, but honestly i don't know how to do it. The thing i tried was to use a loopback device via v4l2loopback, so what i did exactly is:
1. install v4l2loopback
2. modprobe v4l2loopback
3. feed it via ffmpeg Code: Select allffmpeg -f iec61883 -i auto -f v4l2 /dev/video0this so far works like a charm, i can open the stream via vlc for example if i choose open device and point it to /dev/video0
My problem now is the device detection. For example "Cheese" and the adobe flash plugin doesn't recognize any webcam.

My Sony DV cam is about 6 years old so not really new technology but F12 will not detect the cam over firewire. When I turn on the cam I do not see anything in F12 (although I do not know where I would see the camera). When I run KDEnlive and hit connect on firewire it does not detect the camera.
I am dual booting with Win7 and the camera is detected there so I know my card, cable and connection are good.
lspci shows the firewire port as follows:
