    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.

hi<3

on a iMac g5 can audio and video be recorded at the same time? so i'd be able to make a simple video and upload it somewhere?

i'm guessing no =/

thanks for your help.

Sure...
What video device are you using? If your model has a built-in iSight camera, just record the video & audio with iMovie and you're done!

Same goes for any other video input device you're using...

Yep!

It has a built-in microphone... but then so does your iMac.
Go to media-> audio in iMovie and you should see a little red record button somewhere.
Hit record and start talking.

To select an input go to apps->utilities->audio&midi utility and select which mic you want to use. (internal or isight mic)
