capturing video from camcorder
When I capture video from cam to Adobe premiere CS5 there is a large blank screen on the capture panel. This I presume is to show the clips being captured. However I can't find an option to show the capturing video on this screen and I have to view the small LCD screen on the cam corder in order to see the progress of the capture and to see where to stop recording. Is it possible to view the screen on the capture panel and if so where can I find this option. Unfortunately the expensive tutorials I have doesn't tell me. Thanks for any info.

Re: capturing video from camcorder
Are you using USB or Firewire to transfer?. I can see the previews with Firewire, but not with USB, but then I only tend to use USB as a straight data transfer rather than capture.

Re: capturing video from camcorder
I'm using Firewire to capture from Camcorder. I was told that my not using the Capture panel screen to view the capture it saves the PC from working to hard, but surely there must be a choice? I have no bother with Vegasand the PC handles the capture OK whilst viewing the capture panel screen.

Re: capturing video from camcorder
since posting my query I have found where the options are for viewing the capture procedure and have ticked onto the relevant boxes but no joy . I can only hear the Audio but no image appears on the capture panel screen. Am I missing something?

Re: capturing video from camcorder
Donald. Yes no problem. Everything is perfect except that I can't see what is being captured exccept via the LCD viewer on the camcorder.

Re: capturing video from camcorder
Are you capturing DV or HDV, because there is no preview for HDV while capturing in CS5 and CS5.5
However there is a fix for CS5.5. CS6 has preview. There should be preview for DV in all versions of Premiere. |

Re: capturing video from camcorder
I have been dealing with the same problem since I first starting using Premiere. At first I could preview DV either, but a newer more powerful pc solved that. I had assumed it was the same for HDV, that I just didn't have enough resources to view it. Once I got used to the idea though, watching via the lcd screen just became part of my workflow.

Re: capturing video from camcorder
ANN. In this instance I am capturing in DV. KEVIN. I had thoughts about the PC not being powerful enough although I have a Quad 4 processor. Then I thought again because when using Vegas 10, I can see the Capture panel screen images OK when capturing even HDV. Does this indicate that Adobe premiere needs a more powerful PC than Vegas.
