I've been looking for a way to create stop motion videos for the longest time now, and I still haven't been able to. Help, please and thanks(:Does anyone know of a good stop motion program that is compatible with a jvc digital camcorder?You need to make sure that your camcorder can provide a Video Out signal by USB. If it can't and that's how you've been connecting your camcorder to your computer, then that's obviously why stop motion programs can't detect your camcorder.
If your camcorder can only provide a video out by RCA (yellow jack), then you'll need an RCA to USB adapter or buying a decent webcam since providing a live video stream by USB is their entire purpose, meaning they can be used with any stop motion program.
Don't use a digital camera. The problem is that most digital cameras (even DSLR's with a live view) can't be used with stop motion software since they all go into a "generic hard drive" mode for uploading pics when plugged into a computer. It's not made to provide a live video feed when plugged into a computer, so you'll just end up having the same problem you're having with your camcorder.Does anyone know of a good stop motion program that is compatible with a jvc digital camcorder?using a camcorder would be a poor choice of capture device. stop motion is really a sequence of still photos, where objects are moved slightly between shots. when the photos are viewed in rapid sequence flip-book style, the objects give the appearance of animation. A good quality still camera attached to a tripod support with locking head will give best results. software is used to assemble the sequence of jpeg pictures into a video file format, correcting for aspect ratio if needed.Does anyone know of a good stop motion program that is compatible with a jvc digital camcorder?I made a website a while back showing an in depth step by step guide to making a stop motion video....
