Capturing Video

Firewire

This captures video from sources connected via a firewire (also known as - IEEE 1394 High Speed Serial Bus) card and cable. This functionality uses the dvgrab program and the settings for this can be customized by clicking the spanner icon or choosing Settings>Configure Kdenlive. See Nastavit Kdenlive.

To perform a capture:

  • Plug in your device to the firewire card and turn it on to play mode

  • Click the Connect Button

Kdenlive_Connect_firewire_button

  • Click the Record Button – note it toggles to grey while you are recording

  • Click the Record button again to stop capture. Or click the stop button.

  • Once capturing is finished, click the disconnect button

Kdenlive_Disconnect_capture

  • In the Captured Files dialog, click the import button to have the captured files automatically imported into the project bin.

Poznámka

If your device does not start playing the source device when you click the record button, you may have to start playback on your device manually and then click record.

FFmpeg

I believe this captures video from an installed Web Cam using Video4Linux2.
