CS3 Scene Detect function not available at DVinfo.net

Trying to capture footage from my Z1 in CS3 is annoying because the "Scene Detect" function is 'greyed out' and won't let me use it.

Does anyone know how to overcome this?

Everything else seems to be working fine (at last) but I cannot figure out how to activate Scene Detect and I desperately need it.

I assume it is the same in CS3, but CS2 does not natively support scene detect for HDV. Cineform does, and some people use HDVSplit, which I haven't so can't comment. Not sure why Adobe still doesn't support such a significant feature when freeware like HDVSplit can do it.
