Use Canon Vixia HF G10 as a Webcam?

My company bought a canon vixia hf g10, we would like to replace our webcam with this. Is this possible?

We want to spread the camcorder to your computer using a software conference (rocket) [Google Hangouts, Skype or something else which is supported if the rocket is not]. I tried to connect the camcorder using USB & HDMI and no work. When I try to open the streaming software and move my camera computers on the camcorder it does not appear as an option. I'm stuck

Hi ColinLeiker!

Thanks for the post.

The VIXIA HF G10 can be used to broadcast video live feed to a computer in order to work as a webcam.  Connect the camcorder to a computer, it is for the transfer of already recorded video only.

  • Canon Vixia connectivity issues

    I have a Canon Vixia HV 40 camcorder but when I plug it via USB or IEEE connection is not to be picked up. It makes a noise to tell it connected (only with the Firmwire on USB makes no noise at all) it also on the camera says it is connected but does not appear in the devices in workstation or the management of devices.  I uninstalled and reinstalled the cd but no joy also tried on another pc with the same questions.

    When I tried to see if it is connected through its own software, but says it is not connected.  I went to the website to download the drivers but they say there is no driver to download only the software packages that come with the cd

    I only use it for the use of video and not interested in options still the firmwire must therefore work more than USB.

    I am running XP with SP2 on an Acer laptop.

    Any help will be very appreciated because not many other people seems to have issues that I am.

    Thank you

  • Unable to capture video with the Canon Vixia HV40 HDV - why?

    I am unable to capture video HDV via Firewire to my Cannon Vixia HV40. I am running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit on a computer HP DV6T Quad Edition laptop, using the native Firewire interface. I can capture DV standard definition without problem (when the unit is set to DV mode, Windows detects the device and the guests of action - if you select HDV mode, Windows does not, and the camera does not appear in Device Manager).

    So far, I tried to capture HDV in Sony Vegas, Windows Live Movie Maker, Cyberlink PowerDirector 7 and finally HDVSplit (considered as the common denominator of simpler, the lowest for the capture) without success. NOTE: the camera IS recognized in HDV mode. In all the above applications, I can go back, play and fast forward - there's a link that works at least at this level. When I try to capture HDV, I get different results - no success. HDVSplit starts playback on the camera and stops after 3-4 seconds, indicating that no data has been transferred from the camera. If I turn off scene detection, capture runs indefinitely, but the generated file is never more than 0KB. Director of Windows also appears to capture, but the file is still 70 KB and is not valid. Sony Vegas, same, begins the capture but never see any video. CyberLink Power Director, somehow, HDV recorded once a band - and can always record a live camera HD stream.

    I tried a lot of things:

    1 using the older driver 1394
    2 turn HD/HDV
    3 reinstall the capture software
    4 press the 'PLAY' button first, then enable "record", then the workflow is running.
    5. install the Canon software (despite the fact that it contains all drivers for camcorders) - in fact there is no driver for the Canon Vixia HV40. It is supposed to work with the Windows 7 driver. I tried both (W7 and legacy) with the same result.

    The Canon Vixia HV40 is documented as supported in Windows 7 by Microsoft and Canon - and yet there are many people on the Internet claiming to have this problem (although some people report no problems at all). I am sure that I do not see a 'Pink Elephant'. As this is a forum for Microsoft - I would be happy if I could capture in Windows Live Movie Maker - to keep the inconsistencies of the third part of the road. What should I try next? Is there a 1394 a generic driver that is certified to run on Windows 7?

    I went and hooked the camcorder new just to make sure that I can hardly believe it is now capture HDV. Perfect work. Believe me, I've tried evey solution I could find on the internet and it is the only one that worked for me. I found the solution on this forum and started to find only no sooner. I've only used it with Pinnacle Studio 12 so far... never mind, I just tried HDV Split and it works too. I had also planned to buy a SIIG NN-EC2812-S2 and if it had been less expensive, I did not hesitate. I tried from Best Buy's Dynex Express card, but he had the camera recognition problems and sent. I thought that you get what you pay and was actually looking for the best price on the SIIG when I came across the solution. I wish you good luck.

  • Windows 8 does not recognize my Canon Vixia HV40 by fire wire. Help!

    Hey guys,.

    I'm having a problem with trying to capture video from my Canon Vixia HV40 and do it on Adobe Premiere Pro CS6.

    I think that the main problem is that my laptop (running Windows 8) does not even recognize my camera using a fire wire.

    I've linked download these drivers and nothing works. Can someone help me please?

    I use fire wire that turns a USB port, if that tells you anything.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community forums.

    Let me try and help you with the problem.

    1. you try connecting the camera for the first time on your computer?

    2. have you made sure the Firewire cable is working correctly?

    3. What is the status of the camera in Device Manager when you connect?

    To open Device Manager, press the key Windows key + X and choose Device Manager.

    In Device Manager, check if the camera is recognized.

    If the camera is not recognized, you may need to check the issue by using a different firewire cable.

    I also suggest you to run the hardware troubleshooter and check if that helps.

    1. Point to the upper right of the screen and then move the pointer of the mouse to the bottom and click on search.

    2. Enter Troubleshooting in the search box, type or click Troubleshooting, and then click hardware and sound.

    3. Click hardware and devicesand follow the instructions on the screen.

    Let us know if it helps. If you have any other questions, we will be happy to help you.

  • Canon Vixia HF200 import disorder

    Hello

    I use the trial version of Adobe Premiere (with the intention to buy in the near future) to import from a Canon Vixia HF200.  The HF200 uses the AVCHD format, written as MFX files.  I shot the highest quality me offered by my camera (MXP it's called) at 24 frames per second.

    Here's the problem: when I import the MXF files in first, they are imported as video ONLY, without any audio.  However, when I open the MXF files in VLC or Windows Media Player, they play with the audio.  How is it first is not recognizing/no import audio tracks?  How can I fix?  Help!

    Thank you

  • Canon Vixia HF200

    I have Adobe first Elements 7 but never used. I think to buy a Canon Vixia HF200. Does anyone know if I can use this camera directly with PE7 (via the memory flash card) or I have to use other software to fill with anything (?) to be able to change this specific PE7 camera. So I'm sorry if this is a basic question, but it's my first foray in the video and editing.

    The barrel must come with a FireWire cable. If this isn't the case, you will need to get one with the connector of the camera and also for your IEEE-1394/iLink/FW connector on your computer.

    You will have to buy additional strips. First of all, you can archive these for more late re - capture and rewriting of the bands is not a good idea.

    For your microphone, make sure to set the input on your camera. You want your mic to 'replace' the internal mic.

    This should be it.

    Good luck
