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....

  • Problems between Macbook pro retina and CS6

    Hi,  the problems with the macbook pro retina and CS6 are solved? problems with the pixelated interface in PS, InDesign, Illustrator...
    Thanks

    Photoshop and Illustrator with their latest patches are compatible with retinal displays. InDesign CS6 is not and never will be compatible. You'll need CC for that.

    the problem is this : every time i have to send a clip to another aplication for the cleaning of the sound( audition with dynamic link or soundtrack pro exporting a .wav file) after a while (it can be a couple of minutes or more) i listene a clic on my headphones and the sound goes back to the speakers of the macbook pro, after that i must reconfigure again the audio hardware and audio output mapping again ( this happen almost with every clip and only between audition and premiere) anyway i started to use soundtrack pro to avoid this problem... but what is happening now is  that many times after i listen the clic on the headphones or after im tryng to go back from one audio application to premiere, premiere freeze out or shhot down....
    the poject is kind of big and restart premiere 3 or 4 times in an hour of job in my mac book pro  its not what i call a productive hour oj job...

  • Synchronization problems between Logic Pro 8 and Roland's groovebox MC-909

    Hi everybody,
    I recently purchased a (used) Roland MC-909 and tried to synchronize it with Logic but the whole procedure seems too complicated.
    Logic gets digital audio input (S/PDIF-RCA) from the MC-909 (through M-audio Fast Track Pro) and I've tried all shorts of adjustments (e.g. connecting Logic's MIDI out (through M-audio Fast Track Pro) to Roland's MIDI in port and the opposite with different master/slave setups etc.).
    I can't get these two to synchronize.I suppose there is a logical solution for everything,but I'm really running out of patience...
    I want to use Logic Studio to internally record Roland's (synchronized!!) audio output,avoiding sampling patterns from Roland and then transferring them to Logic (import audio file).After that,I would like to use these two combined in a live set.
    I hope there are people out there having faced similar problems in the past...share any bit of useful info please..
    Thanks everybody!
    Mario,Greece

    MIDI Out from Logic via the M-Audio interface.
    In Logic's synchronization setup, be sure "Transmit MIDI Clock" is enabled and the port is selected.
    In the Roland, set clock to external/slave, you may have to press play, the unit should now wait for, and sync to MIDI clock from Logic.
    caveat... I don't have a Roland unit, but this way ---should--- (hate that word) work.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • How to get accurate photo printouts using calibrated FlexScan S1932 , Photoshop CS3 and Canon MX925 ? ALL ARE calibrated with i1Pro . WHO SHOULD GOVERN THE PRINTOUT , THE CS3 OR THE PRINTER ?

    How to get accurate photo printouts using  FlexScan S1932 screen, Photoshop CS3 and Canon MX925 ? ALL ARE calibrated with i1Pro . WHO SHOULD GOVERN THE PRINTOUT , THE CS3 OR THE PRINTER ?

    You need to work with the calibration parameters to get a good match from screen to print. There are no fixed values - basically whatever settings produce a match are the right ones.
    First, set the white point - luminance and color - so that screen white is a visual equivalent to paper white. You can be very specific about this, with a viewing booth right next to the display and a particular paper as target. Or you can take a more generalistic approach. That too will usually work well, as long as you keep the aim in sight: screen white = paper white.
    Don't trust the white point presets. You will usually have to adjust to compensate for your working environment. Make sure you can adjust both along the blue/yellow Kelvin scale and the green/magenta axis. Any given Kelvin value may well be wrong on the green/magenta axis.
    Next set a realistic black point. This is important. Monitor manufacturers throw about completely unrealistic contrast ranges that you will never see on paper. A good glossy inkjet paper will be in the vicinity of 250-300:1, or a black point around 0.4 - 0.5 cd/m² if your white point is at 120. If you have a monitor that goes down to, say, 0.2, which most monitors today will, you're in for an unpleasant surprise.
    Leave gamma at 2.2. Gamma is remapped from profile to profile and is "invisible" - the net result is always linear. You just want to stay close to native so that the monitor behaves at its best.
    If you have a wide gamut monitor soft proofing in Photoshop can be useful. With a standard gamut monitor it's mostly a waste of time since monitor gamut is the limiting one.
    Oh, and let Photoshop manage color. Make sure you have the right paper/ink profile and also make sure you have the right paper selected in the printer driver. This controls the total amount of ink.

    This, Whats's the difference between MacBook Pro 13 and 13.3 ?

    Firstly, you are not in MacBook Pro forum, so you need to get your bearings.
    2nd check the specs page
    http://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro
    Then Bing/Google for reviews, Ars is always good but dozens have done one.
    2011 brings Intel Sandy Bridge processor boards, Thunderbolt, SATA3 (6G) along with options for SSD and much more RAM (can save buying RAM and doing the upgrade yourself)

  • Can I get my GTX 670 card to be compatible with Prem Pro CC and Speedgrade cc on my windows machine?

    Can I get my GTX 670 card to be compatible with Prem Pro CC and Speedgrade cc on my windows machine?

    No need to hack anything in CC:
    "(...) This is no longer necessary in Premiere Pro CC. As long as you have a reasonably modern card with at least 1GB of VRAM, you will still be able to enable that card in the Project Settings dialog. A warning message will appear letting you know that your card has not been certified by Adobe, but once that dialog is clicked through you can use your GPU."
    See details here:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/premierepro/2013/06/adobe-premiere-pro-cc-and-gpu-support.html
    AFAIK SpeedGrade uses CUDA and/or OpenCL depending on availability, so no type or model white-list, with this one limitation only for Direct Link on Mac: only NVIDIA OpenCL is supported (NVIDIA CUDA and AMD OpenCL are not currently available with Direct Link on the Mac platform).

  • What is the difference between MacBook pro 2011 and 2012

    What is the difference between MacBook pro 2011 and 2012

    understanding that at the time of the question, there has not been any Macbook Pro 2012, now it is later and there is.
    The difference is:
    -CPU being used (2011 models: Sandy Bridge, 2012 models: Ivy Bridge)
    -Graphics (2011: intel 3000 + on 15"/17" ATI, 2012: intel 4000 + on 5"/17" nvidia Geforce 650M)
    -USB (2011: USB2.0 only, 2012: USB3.0)
    -Bluetooth (2011. 2.1 + EDR, 2012: 4.0)
    Ivy Bridge CPUs are smaller and are a little bit more energy-efficient.
    Other than that, currently the devices are not much different in respect to performance (Apple's graphics driver performance is known to increase during upgrades, though, so the performance gap may widen up)

  • Difference between logic pro 7 and 8

    I'm just wondering if there's a difference between the Logic Studio ($500), and Logic Pro 8..or does Logic Pro 8 simply come within the Logic Studio package? Is there a big difference between Logic Pro 7 and 8? Also, is it worth the $200 upgrade?

    Hi,
    Logic Studio: Logic Pro 8, Soundtrack Pro and MainStage.
    So yes, Logic Pro 8 is part of the 'Logic Studio' package, which also contains the two other apps.
    http://www.apple.com/logicstudio/
    Take a look at the Logic Pro 8/Logic Studio forum. There are mixed opinions on whether it is worth upgrading yet or not.
    Good Luck!
