No preview on capture monitor...

Hi there,
A wierd problem occured to my PC just recently.
I am unable to playback footage in my capture window...
I have no idea what has happened, but basically it doesn't work anymore!
Spec: SONY HVR-V1E camera, recording HDV.
Adobe Production suite CS3, all fully updated.
Windows XP SP2, 3.2 Ghz dual core, 3 GB RAM.
I know i cannot preview HDV while capturing, thats not the problem. I should be able to view the footage in my capture monitor before capturing.
I do get the normal capturing screen when i hit capture button though.
I have looked into all the capture settings and all seems okay, has anyone got a suggestion?
thanks...
Andrew-

Hi
Its not the capturing its when veiwing the footage and marking in and out points where it has dissappeared. I know you get a dialogue screen when you are capturing. It worked when I first used it with the HDV camera.
Cheers
Jon

Capture monitor window pixelated

When capturing SD footage via Firewire the capture monitor window has pixelated dropouts in a couple areas (usually the same places) during loading. This is a new dual quad core Dell precision machine nVidia,Quadro FX 5600, 1.5GB dual VGA or DVI, Graphics CardDell Precision T7400. Why would that drop out? Never did for years on my previous Dell dual processor machine which had a much lower power graphics card? Not a real problem, just looks terrible.
Thanks, rg

Just gave that a try with no success. Tried putting the capture window in either monitor and that did not change the effect. It's odd since the graphics card provides great performance in HDV playback, and multilayer previewing without rendering. Such a small thing, but annoying.
Anyone have any other thoughts? rg

Scanning in Mavericks? I can no longer use the scanning function in my HP Officejet 4500. HP says to go through Preview, Image Capture, or Print/Scan in System Prefs. Still doesn't work. Any ideas/similar experiences?

Sure it is, yet it's called HP LaserJet Professional M1210nf MFP Series *
Today, I followed your other advice, and deleted the printer, deleted the /Library/Printer/hp folder, downloaded the entire set of driver, re-installed the printer twice, once with the driver, once with Bonjour.
The Bonjour Printer has the scan option active, but it is doesn't work (refer to above.), it is called M1217nfw
The Apple Driver Printer doesn't show the scan option at all, it is called M1217nf (as on the http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#HP list.) This model number doesn't exist, as far as I can tell.
Still, everything works perfectly in Snow Leopard, for a MF printer that has been manufactured years after Snow Leopard was released.
Why going up in software version means going backwards in compatiblity for brand new product is really the question that puzzles me here.

No video Preview During Capture

Here is the scoop:
Adobe Premeire CS5
Windows 7 64bit
Canon XL2
Capturing DV NOT HDV
Canon standard device control as there is no preset listed for the XL2
Video and audio actually captures fine. I can hear audio during capture but cannot see any video.
I know there is no video preview when capturing HDV but I am capturing DV.
Again this is CS5 NOT 5.5 so .dll fix is not an option
Thanks in advance.

FIXED!
Heres how it went:
Went to Device Manager and let windows look for an updated driver for my Graphics Card (Radeon HD 4200). Windows said the most current driver was installed. It was NOT the most current driver. I went out to ATI and got the most current driver, installed, reboot and OH JOY! I get video in the capture window during preview AND during capture (of DV)!
I also let windows (device manager) look for updated drivers for sound and it said the driver was the most current. Again, it was not. so the moral of the story is...Don't trust Device Manager on current driver versions.
Hope this will help some folks out there.
Side Note*
Most of us spend hours on forums looking for answers/fixes to particular problems. Most replies I see are either in the vein of "I have that problem too" or " try this, it worked in this OTHER version or try this OTHER software" etc. If you dont have an answer/fix for the problem, dont post.
ON the flip side of that, when posting a problem you want an answer to, Give all the pertinent information in your initial question. " Premiere crashes when I plug up my camera" does NOT suffice! What version of Premiere, what camera, what OS, What kind of connection, etc.

Full screen preview with one monitor

Hello,
I'm using Premiere Pro CS5 on a Mac with a single monitor. I would like to see the full screen preview on this monitor, hiding all GUI elements.
By reading around, I could only find the suggestion of selecting the Preview pane and press the ~ or ` key. Unfortunatly, it seems that this shortcut only triggers the Maximize or Return to the Original Size commands. GUI elements remain in the display.
Is there some preference to select somewhere?
Thank you, Paolo

That's as close as you can get with Premiere; it doesn't do a single-monitor fullscreen the way FCP does.

Video preview during capture CS3

Video preview during capture is not working even though settings are at preview video and audio during capture.
The work around seems to be to go ahead record anyway (red button) then it works after I paste the captured audio onto the timeline.
When pasting it to the timeline the video appears. The video appears during subsequent captures. It seems like a bug in CS3. This was not a problem with PP 1.5
Thanks

these details will help us help you.

Video preview through second monitor

I'm running PPro CS5 on a mid 2010 Mac Pro with an ATI Radeon HD 5770 graphics card. The card can feed up to 3 monitors - of which I have two connected right now. In Encore I can choose to preview from either monitor, but in PPro I seem to get only two options - 'None' and 'DV'. In CS3 (on a PC) I used to be to enable this with the Desktop setting.
How please do I set things up to find my second monitor? I have updated my Mac's software (which should pick up the latest approved graphics drivers), so I don't think it's an ATI problem.
Thanks very much
Julian

Here you go Jim. A little cramped for me having the main Premiere interface on one screen, but it will do for now. If I can get the third screen running, I wn't really need my MX02 Mini - which doesn't yet work properly on the Mac anyway...
Good luck with making your system work this way. Let me know if I can help further.

Preview, image capture don't recognize my scanner

My HP all-in-one printer-scanner prints fine on my network but niether preview nor image capture lets me select a scanner. The option is grayed out. I recently re-installed the printer software but no change.
The scanner works as expected when using the HP software but not with the mac os apps (preview, image capture).

Thanks - the driver is not available from Apple.
Yes it is, as per this Apple KB article.

The MP Navigator I did manage to download. There was some complicated procedure as Apple doesn't have it at the app store.
As I mentioned, MP Navigator is not digitally signed. But you can still install it using my procedure, which is not that complicated.
rheba wrote:
Sorry - I should add that this shouldn't be so hard. Apple used to be plug and play. This took me hours and hours to track down.
On a correctly working Mac it still is plug and play. I have the LiDE 200 and all I had to do after installing 10.8 was to connect the scanner. The ICA driver was then downloaded and installed from Apple and I was then able to scan using Image Capture.

Preview and capture at 1/4 speed

Importing speed is related to your computer processor and what it can handle. Have a look at David Babsky's posts in this thread to see if this helps:

No preview when capturing to DVD

Hi,
I've got the NX6600GT AGP & apart from all the input/output leads being incorrectly labeled, it's also got a few other funny things. When capturing video straight to DVD using WINDVD Creator 2, the preview screen goes blank while recording is in progress. Once you stop recording the preview returns. The captured video is perfect with sound & all, but with the video preview dissappearing while recording you are unable to see what in fact you are recording. Has anyone else had a similar problem? The program works as I have it installed on my other computer with a Leadtek A240. Many brains make light work of problems, hope I've just overlooked something.
cheers

PIONEER AO8 D/L DVDR/RW

Yes, I thought about that option. Although this preview function should be set as default as it worked on the other sytem without any adjustment. Surely the preview should work because you can't see what you are recording. I have just tried it with the software that came bundled with the card also. The bundled software is called WINDVD Creator Plus & doesn't allow for burning directly to DVD but does allow to HDD. This software also removes the preview when capturing to Hard Disk. Now I might be a little harsh here, but isn't this stuff supposed to be tested before being placed in the marketplace?? I'll send an email to MSI & see what they have to say. I've also tried installing previous versions of the WDM drivers & crossbar drivers. I grabbed the disk for my old video card which has WDM drivers from 2002 ( it's also VIVO & chipset by Nvidia) but it still removed the preview. Time to step it up. Has anyone else experimented with this software & got it to work?? Would like to hear from you.

Preview during capture

P.E. version 9.0.1 , operating system Vista 32 . When capture video from camcorder via fire wire , don't have preview , but video and audio captured O.K.
What should I look to solve this?
Ted

Hello again;
I been looking to some sources include Adobe and didn't find nothing about no capture preview in P.E.9. Only in the Read Me file , Adobe mention that some streaks could be visible on capture preview screen due capturing
interlaced footage.However I was successful with capture preview until I get updates from Adobe , updated graphics driver from nVidia and get windows updates. Going further I installed my old P.E.4.0 which I been using for few years and with this program I have preview on capture screen when capturing HD footage.My conclusion: something is corrupted in P.E.9 either to updates or poor writing of the program.
Another issue with P.E.9 is rendering. When I render timeline and save , then exit program and open project again red line above time line is still present. I have to render again to get this job done.
I contacted Adobe about this issue and after several back and for calls answer from Adobe was "this is going since version 4.0 and Adobe is working on this ,and will send you update". It is over year now
and no update resolving rendering problem, but I don't have rendering problem in version 4.0.

Capture Monitor vs. Project Monitor

When capturing video directly from the Sony Handycam, it appears to be of normal brightness and contrast. But later when viewing the same clip in the project monitor it appears extremely dark. Exporting video to produce a DVD restores the original brightness of the capture monitor.
This has been a real issue because we use the project window for editing. Compensating for the extremely dark image on the project monitor causes the finished exported video to look very washed-out. If anyone has experienced this problem and found a way to deal with it, I would be grateful for your advice. Is there a way to adjust the settings of the project monitor to appear the same as the capture monitor?

You might go back a level or two (so you cover the entire forum) and do a SEARCH for something like
calibrate monitor
Or, buy a video card with a monitor and a TV connection, and connect a TV to the 2nd output
A computer monitor and a TV are simply different

Previewing with second monitor

all I want to do is burn video to dvd. I want to make sure that the media is within the title action safe area. I made a video for my girl and it looked fine in the safe area on my lcd monitor but when I played in on my HD tv it was beyond the safe area. I've been looking at Blackmagic Intensity Pro
HDMI Capture Card and DeckLink SDI but am at a loss when it comes to the second monitor.
my questions are:
what would be the most budget minded setup to do this?
can I hook up a regular hd tv in order to preview?
using after effects for the edits

Hi Civolis,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are having issues with video and connection to a second display for use with your MacBook Pro. In this situation, I would recommend working through the troubleshooting steps in the attached article to help resolve your issue.

Can't Preview HDV Capture In Premiere Pro CS6

I can't preview my HDV footage in Premiere Pro CS6.
I know I'm not supposed to be able to see anything in the Capture Window when I'm actually capturing HDV, but it says I should be able to see my footage when I am just previewing in the Capture Window.
Canon HV20
i7 2600K
Windows 7 64 Bit
ASUS P67 MOBO
16GB RAM
GTX 470
Corsair AT 850 Watt PSU
Thanks!

Thanks Ann!
I just figured it out.
I'm using 2 monitors in extended mode.
One is a VGA flat panel and the other is a DVI flat panel.
I had the Capture Window open on my VGA monitor.
When I moved the Capture Window to my DVI monitor, I got a preview picture.
It's funny, when I move the Capture Window from the DVI to the VGA while playing, playing stops.
And when I move it bak to the DVI, it continues to play.
Maybe because the VGA isn't digital?
Both monitos are hooked up to my GTX 470 GPU, so it seems wierd.
Any feedback on this would be welcomed.
Thanks again!
