Capture Problems - Prem. Pro CS3

Hi there,
been trying to upload some footage for a few days now, but with no luck. Basically, when connecting my camcorder (Panasonic NV GS300) the computer makes the beep noise it makes when a device is connected, a few seconds to a minute pass and then it beeps again and the device can't be found on the computer. In the the little bit of time the computer recognizes the device I try and load up the capture screen in Premiere, which crashes Premiere until the computer looses the device again. In Device Manager the camera appears for a brief amount of time, but vanishes quickly.
I have tried changing Firewire ports (I have two seperate ports on my PC) and bought a new cable today, but the problem is still presenting itself. I'm guessing the problem may lie in the camera or PC, but am not sure.
Any help?

HI,
I use CS3 and have a firewire 400 and 800 card to capture video from mini DV...which I think your camera is...and if you use it like a playback device ( the camera ) you can capture your whole tape in real time to your hard drive ....using that ScLive program...
There were problems making the connection between the computer and camera ( playback device ) using CS3 capture.
The ScLive program for capturing somehow made it easier to deal with the mechanics of my computer system...
There's no guarantee that ScLive would work either...but it did for me and thought I'd mention it...
Good Luck !

Prem Pro cs3 causes windows 7/ 64 to become corrupt

Having installed prem pro cs3 in win 7/64, I get frequent crashes and eventually windows reports that windows explorer is unable to start. This means that win cannot start or if already running cannot access anything. Can only be cured by a new installation of windows.have repeated this process several times with Prem the only program installed. Might work ok for a few days then it starts all over again. Any ideas anyone? Hve tried restore and repair etc. No good.

Encore in Prem pro CS3

Have spent a while looking how to get encore to work in my downloaded trial copy of Prem pro CS3
I have put in markers
when I go to export Encore is light greyed out and not in dark grey am I missing something??

I don't have the link handy, but the last time someone asked about this I went to the download page and then looked at the FAQ
There are SEVERAL steps to take to convert the PPro3 trial to real software... part of which is not just download "some codec stuff" but actually downloading AND installing Encore3 (and OnLocation?)
So... you need to download AND install more software, not just codecs

Capture error premiere pro cs3

I've got an ongoing capture error in premiere pro cs3 (on Mac OSX).
At around the 9 minute mark of capturing, it stops and says 'Unknown recorder error'. The footage is still captured if I stop it straight away but lost if I leave it for a while. I'm using canon hv30 camera to capture dv footage (not hdv) and can't seem to solve it. Any suggestions?

Try a different capture utility. VideoHelp.com will list plenty of free alternatives. If they stumble as well, there ie likely something wrong with the tape at that spot.

Problemas premiere PRO CS3

en adobe premiere PRO CS3 vamos a editar un video. ruta:
1.- en el cuadro proyecto inicio una secuencia, y con raton derecho importar. fotos, videos... ya tenemos el material escogido en el cuadro de proyecto.
2.- doble clic sobre una de las fotos y aparece en el panel central, donde hay 3 pestañas de ORIGEN (cortar), CONTROL DE EFECTOS (muy bueno) y MEZCLADOR DE AUDIO.
3.- boton derecho sobre la foto..etc = INSERTAR. y directamente va a la barra de LINEA DE TIEMPO O SECUENCIA. es donde montaremos el video.
hasta aqui bien.
el insertar en esta barra, o lo hacemos con boton derecho INSERTAR o lo arrastramos desde el panel central hasta la pista que queremos utilizar.
por defecto hay 3 pistas de video y 3 de audio + una original.
es en estas pistas donde moveremos, juntaremos, aplicaremos transiciones..etc de los fotogramas, tramos de video, archivos de musica. desde esta barra saldra nuestra edicion.
MI PROBLEMA DE AHORA, antes no. al añadir un segundo fotograma desde origen (panel central) a la barra de tiempo. hay un fallo de (software.. hardware..configuracion)???? que hace se duplique la LINEA DE TIEMPO. es horrible.
si quiero mover fotogramas entre las pistas de video, igual!! se vuelve a duplicar la barra de LINEA DE TIEMPO. y lo hace en cascada. no vertical.
es imposible editar, perdon editar si por hacerlo en el panel central. es imposible montar un video, hacer la composicion, ya que muevo los fotogramas y cada vez se añade otra linea de tiempo. que deriva en que aquella barra vertical de "comodin" que nos indica donde insertar el fotograma en cualquiera de las pistas de video. esa barra se corrompe y no es real. es imposible hacer un montaje.
00:00:000 LINEA DE TIEMPO original
00:00:000 LINEA DE TIEMPO duplicada al mover cualquier archivo.
00:00:000 y vuelve a duplicar...
esto deriva en que las pistas de video y audio quedan solapadas en cascada y no hay manera de trabajar.
este problema es de ahora. hace unas semanas he formateado y lo tengo ahora. antes con el premiere PRO CS3 no lo tenia.
he bajado una version de prueba de CREATIVE SUITE 4. el adobe premiere CS4, el mas nuevo. CON EL MISMO ERROR.
edito videos por hobby. de eventos deportivos, familia.. tengo pendiente uno, y me esta cogiendo el toro...
he actualizado la tarjeta grafica, 2 x NVIDIA QUADRO FX 570 actualizada con drivers del 21-10.
quizas al tener 2 podria estar aqui el problema. desde el formateo no se ha conectado ni desconectado ningun cable. la misma pantalla. no he tocado nada de hardware...
puede alguien indicarme como puedo solucionar esto? que puedo hacer? donde esta el fallo?
muchas gracias

Strange problem between Prem Pro CS3 and Canon ZR950

I bought CS3 and a Canon ZR950 thinking they were compatible. I ended up having to install Firewire and using the special 4-pin to 6-pin cord. It almost works.
According to Windows XP the drivers for both the "Canon DV Camcorder" and the "Texas Instruments OHCI Complaint IEEE 1394 Host Controller" are working properly. The firewire works properly with other devices. When I place the camcorder in PLAY and insert the cable the computer recognizes it as a camcorder and gives me choices of programs to use - Premiere Pro, Windows Movie Maker, Vegas Movie Studio, and Media Import 8.
I've tried uninstalling the camcorder drivers and when reattached they self install again "correctly". If I use Windows Movie Maker I get a warning "An unknown error has occured" and it stops working. If I use Vegas Movie Studio 9 I get an eror message saying "Microsoft DV Camera and VCR" could not be opened. If I use Roxio Media Import 8 I can get it to start the camcorder screen replay but none of the other computer program controls work and it's doesn' save anything or show up on the computer screen.
The only one that gets to the next step is Premiere Pro. It will actually open and wait for input. When I select Capture the window opens but nothing works until I go to the Settings tab, Device Control, Options button. There I select NTCS, Canon, Standard, and Auto detect. There is no specific choice for the ZR950. It only goes up to Z70. I've tried various settings but it doesn't make any difference.
Here's the strange thing. Regardless of whether I change the options or not, even if I only open up the Options menu and close it again, the controls on my computer screen will now control the camera for playback, foward, reverse, stop but it will only show up on the camera screen, not on my computer screen. In addition, there is no capture going on. In other words, I can use my computer as a giant controller to watch my videos on my camera screen, but that's it.
I suspect there is something wrong with the settings on the camera, but haven't gotten any word back from Canon yet. Any suggestions you can offer here would be appreciated.

Hu Simon...thanks for the answer but how i already writed in my post im on a macbook pro(internal audio card are out of the question)...
anyway are you suggesting that adobe doesnt work well with usb audio devices???
becouse for now i have to stick with it....
if somebody got a suggestion please let me know

Prem Pro CS3 to Soundbooth problems

When I edit an audio track from a video file in PPCS3 using Soundbooth, I can make changes that are reflected in PPCS3, unless I convert a stereo track into mono.
Anyone know how I can convert a stereo track to mono that is automatically updated in PPCS3?

Capture in Premier Pro CS3...please help

OK...I am BRAND NEW at Premier and "video" all together. I'm trying to Capture video footage using my Sony DCR-SX41 camcorder AND I've watched the Lynda.com video on how to "capture" footage. The instructor says that I may have problems doing this (which I certainly do), if my camera isn't set to "VCR mode"...what the HECK is that. I'm looking through every setting on my camera and I don't see a "VCR mode". Can someone help?! THANKS!
SIGNED..."TOTALLY DISCOURAGED"

The first question at the end of this link http://ppro.wikia.com/wiki/Troubleshooting includes links to software that will tell you the CODEC used for your file
If you don't have the correct CODEC installed, Premiere won't work... IF it will work at all with the files you have
When you get to the wiki link, go to the base of that "tree" and start reading... especially the tutorial section
Also... go to my notes page http://www.pacifier.com/~jtsmith/ADOBE.HTM and click the link about editing Compressed files
There may be other software that would work better with your camera

Prem Pro CS3 audio becomes intermittent after a while

This has been going on for a while and I have only now decided to do something about it:
While working on a project in PPCS3, after a while the audio starts to become intermittent. Its as though a buffer has become full and the audio data demand is more than the buffer can supply. I can't seem to find a way to Purge any buffer (if there is one). Are there settings I can adjust to prevent this?
My system is XP64 SP2 RAM 8GB Quad CPUs
Scratch locations: C: 66GB. J: 1.2TB
Re-starting PremPro solves the problem for a while and it then starts all over again.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.
Mark

Yes, I'm planning on going to CS5.5 but I was hopeing to stay with my present XP64 OS set up, so any other suggestions would be appreciated. I'm not sure all of the AFX plug-ins that I use are happy with Win7
Thanks.

Prem Pro CS3. Title screen resizes itself.

Each time I open the titling screen it will gradually enlarge the two left hand panels (a little each time I open it) eventually squeezing the right hand side properties panel (fonts etc) down to almost nothing.
I have to keep dragging things back to resize all the time very annoying.
Can anyone please tell me how to stop this annoying fault.
Thanks

Actually somebody presented a "fix" for this.
If I remember right, the "fix" was to put the tools-bin in the bottom of the Title-screen (but it could be somewhere else).
It was a long time ago, but maybe a search will bring up something.

Keeping Prem Pro 2 and CS3 together.

I have just installed Prem Pro CS3, and await my Matrox RTX2 tools Ver3. In the meantime I would like to still use prem pro 2 with Matrox RTx2 tools Ver 2. Unfortunately, when I try to open Prem pro2 it fails to open beyond the initial flash screen for a second or two. Does anyone know how I can have both programs working on the same system?

Just in case anyone else is having this trouble - I've managed to solve it I think! - Install CS3, then just repair Prem Pro2. It seems to work.

Trial Première pro CS3 combined with Sony DHR-1000NP/No sound rendering the Première Project

Dear friends,
I am a belgian and I have many years of good experience with Pinnacle DV500, Adobe Première 6.0 and the Sony DV Recorder DHR-1000NP.
As I want to make a further step, I downloaded the trial of Adobe Première Pro CS3; I installed this trial on 2 OTHER computers, Windows Professional XP , SP2. With both I have the same problem!
I get good .avi's from my DV tapes, played with the same Sony DV Recorder DHR-1000NP, over a fire wire, connected with the OHCI of the computer.
When playing the obtained Première project, the video and audio on the screen and the amplifier of the computer, are perfect; the videosignal over the firewire and the Sony DV Recorder DHR-1000NP is also perfect, but there is absolutely NO audiosignal reaching the Sony DV Recorder DHR-1000NP.
Who can explain me how I should manage that problem?
Thank you for helping!
With my best regards,
Marc

Beste Marc
Ik heb vandaag de upgrade gedaan naar Premiere Pro CS3. Ik werkt normaal op XP Pro, met capturekaart DVStorm2 (waarmee ik via Premiere Pro 1.5 goed kon werken. Hierop hangt mijn Sony DHR-1000NP.
Na de install van de CS3-versie heb ik geconstateerd dat de DVStorm2 niet meer werkt. Dus ik naar de winkel om een PCI-poort IEEE1394.
Het rare is nu...
wanneer ik de DHR-1000 hierop aansluit start Premiere CS3 op, maar vertelt me dat ik niet in EDIT-mode kan. Capture-window opent, ik kan de video besturen, maar de record-button is disabled.
Met een kleine camera (sony DCR-trv270e) lukt het wel.
Mijn vraag... hoe heb jij jouw DHR-1000 aan de praat gekregen?
Er is duidelijk niets mis met de PCI-kaart, wel met het toetsel dat ik aansluit.
In configuratiescherm komt onmiddellijk wanneer ik de DHR-1000 aansluit een "other devices" warning, geel vraagteken, met AV/C tuner, driver not installed. DOen heeft geen zin, er is geen driver voor.
Ik zou het echt op prijs stellen mocht je me op de goede baan brengen. Ik wil je eventueel eens bellen... mijn nr is 0485/30 31 97.
Van harte bedankt

I have a Sony NEX-VG10, edit with Prem Pro and am having serious capturing issues.

I recently purchased the Sony NEX-VG10 and am really excited about it. I have run into some serious problems capturing the footage, though. I have a 2010 iMac, am running OSX 10.8.2 Mountain Lion and use Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 to edit. I've discovered that the files on the camera are .MTS, a file format with which I am unfamiliar (not surprising, I'm not exactly a newb, but the past few months is the first time I've started editing seriously - I am more a writer/director/producer and could do basic stuff with FC7 and Prem Pro - now I own my own production company and am getting down to the nitty gritty).
But I have found that
1. I can't capture using bridge, it doesn't recognize the file format.
2. When I plug the camera into the computer and go straight to the files, I don't even get individual files. All the information is contained in what looks like a Quicktime movie, but isn't recognized by Quicktime or any other program as anything.
3. When I go into the camera files using the import function in Premiere Pro, I find the individual .MTS files - which say they are Unix Executable files (no idea what that means), I can import them into PP, but the quality is atrocious. Grainy and pixely. Even when viewing them in full res playback mode.
4. I bought Bigasoft Total Video converter (wicked cool program). I import the files using PP, then go find them in this program, and convert them into .mov files - the quality is still atrocious (not surprised, as the .mts files look cruddy, what could I expect when I converted them - but was worth a try).
I need to capture these files in full quality (oh - the file information says they are in 1920 x 1080 (1.0), so it's not like I filmed in a low res.
The software that came with the camera is for PCs, I've searched for answers to these problems, and although I've found similar, I can't find anything that actually helps me. Can anyone out there tell me exactly what to do?!? I would be most appreciative. My new company's success depends on it!

If you'll type mts into the search field for these communities, you will see a plethora of threads on the subject - I was going to link to one, but there are so many, it'd be best for you to read through several. In any case, of note is the fact that you might be able to import into iMovie directly as long as you do not shoot in 50/60 fps - in order to be able to read it, it has to be either 30fps for NTSC or 24 for PAL.
Not sure if the frames per second problem has anything to do with your lousy quality problem, but it might. The other concern is that Sony has not and does not really play nice with anything Apple - that was one of the reasons I chose a Canon.

Movie exporting problems from premiere 6.5 to premiere pro cs3

Hello,
I recently made a movie with video transitions in première 6.5 and as the program crashes in Vista every time i try to export the movie (it did work with XP though before), i now exported the project to première cs3 to be able to make a few small changes and finally export it in (avi) dv pal modus.
The problem now is that pro cs3 changed all the transitions or doesn't seem to apply them. What can i do to make the 6.5 transitions work in cs3 ?
Do i have to erase them all and replace them with cs3 video (cross dissolve) transitions ? I tried a bit to see, but i couldn't change the duration, it would stay on 6 frames, even after i changed the default video transition duration settings...
Hope someone can help me. I have a PC with Vista (32 bits).
Cheers,
E

I've Imported several Pr 6.5 Projects into PrPro 2.0, and never had an issue. Now, some of these Projects (done by others) did have 3rd party Transitions and some that were probably just not available in PrPro 2.0*. PrPro was smart enough to flag each one, with the exact TimeCode, and let me know the name of each "missing" Transition. It was then a simple matter of going to each TimeCode, and replacing the missing Transition with one from either PrPro, or one of my 3rd party vendors. Did CS3 not give you these dialog screens? That would be a shame, as I found them very useful, and simplified the task of replacement to just a few seconds.
Good luck,
Hunt
* most of these Projects were started on Pr 6.5 Mac, and I am on a PC, so I do not know which Transitions might have been on the Mac. A few were definitely 3rd party, if their name was any indication.
