• CS5 Capture problem with SONY HVR - M15U FW800 and pre-roll

  Well, so I'm running with first CS5 on a MacPro4, 1 (2.26 GHz 8 Core Intel) with the GTX 285 card. I'm saving my money for the AJA cards, but so far, I use my trusty bridge MVR-M15U of SONY HDV via FireWire 800. It has served me well in Final Cut for the last two years, but with the first, it is as if he cannot capture anything.

  The problem is that, while the bridge is put in position for the pre-roll advertising, it's like he can not figure out how to slow down the advancement of the image and he tries constantly to make fast forward position and at the point where the band stops, he drove past that 10, 15 or even 20 second pre-roll position. So when he tries to save, he pulls back even further and it goes back like a tennis ball until it gives up.

  With Final Cut I tested it and it works fine on a framework of pre-roll 10, 15 and 20 second, so I'm capture with Final Cut and editing in first, but it would be nice to capture both in the first. :-)

  It's the same thing on DV or HDV footage so far only on miniDV cassettes as I have no DVCAM cassettes to test with.

  Any ideas?

  The problem is that all tape based cameras and bridges ONLY use FW400. There are no cameras or decks with FW800 anywhere in this galaxy, or nearby.

• Unable to capture video with the Canon Vixia HV40 HDV - why?

  I am unable to capture video HDV via Firewire to my Cannon Vixia HV40. I am running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit on a computer HP DV6T Quad Edition laptop, using the native Firewire interface. I can capture DV standard definition without problem (when the unit is set to DV mode, Windows detects the device and the guests of action - if you select HDV mode, Windows does not, and the camera does not appear in Device Manager).

  So far, I tried to capture HDV in Sony Vegas, Windows Live Movie Maker, Cyberlink PowerDirector 7 and finally HDVSplit (considered as the common denominator of simpler, the lowest for the capture) without success. NOTE: the camera IS recognized in HDV mode. In all the above applications, I can go back, play and fast forward - there's a link that works at least at this level. When I try to capture HDV, I get different results - no success. HDVSplit starts playback on the camera and stops after 3-4 seconds, indicating that no data has been transferred from the camera. If I turn off scene detection, capture runs indefinitely, but the generated file is never more than 0KB. Director of Windows also appears to capture, but the file is still 70 KB and is not valid. Sony Vegas, same, begins the capture but never see any video. CyberLink Power Director, somehow, HDV recorded once a band - and can always record a live camera HD stream.

  I tried a lot of things:

  1 using the older driver 1394
  2 turn HD/HDV
  3 reinstall the capture software
  4 press the 'PLAY' button first, then enable "record", then the workflow is running.
  5. install the Canon software (despite the fact that it contains all drivers for camcorders) - in fact there is no driver for the Canon Vixia HV40. It is supposed to work with the Windows 7 driver. I tried both (W7 and legacy) with the same result.

  The Canon Vixia HV40 is documented as supported in Windows 7 by Microsoft and Canon - and yet there are many people on the Internet claiming to have this problem (although some people report no problems at all). I am sure that I do not see a 'Pink Elephant'. As this is a forum for Microsoft - I would be happy if I could capture in Windows Live Movie Maker - to keep the inconsistencies of the third part of the road. What should I try next? Is there a 1394 a generic driver that is certified to run on Windows 7?

  I went and hooked the camcorder new just to make sure that I can hardly believe it is now capture HDV. Perfect work. Believe me, I've tried evey solution I could find on the internet and it is the only one that worked for me. I found the solution on this forum and started to find only no sooner. I've only used it with Pinnacle Studio 12 so far... never mind, I just tried HDV Split and it works too. I had also planned to buy a SIIG NN-EC2812-S2 and if it had been less expensive, I did not hesitate. I tried from Best Buy's Dynex Express card, but he had the camera recognition problems and sent. I thought that you get what you pay and was actually looking for the best price on the SIIG when I came across the solution. I wish you good luck.

• Cannot capture hdv with Premiere Pro

  I'm having a hard time capturing video from my camcorder high definition of Sony HDV - HC7. I am running Premiere Pro CS4 on a DellStudio running under Win 7 64 bit Ultimate system. It has a processor intel i7 CPU (8 cores) with 12 g of RAM.
  
  When I run first and select Capture it opens the capture window properly and allows me to control the camcorder. The camera is connected and working. However, it will not capture. I tried to capture several ways:
  
  1 connect the entry points and on the tape and then do a batch capture.
  2. Enter the whole band.
  3. manually press record at the correct stage is spotted on the camcorder.
  
  Each time the result is the same, nothing is captured. The meter reading displays the band plays and I can see the band playing, but the length of the recorded scene remains at 00:00:00
  
  I am connected via (camera) 4-pin to 6-pin (computer) via firewire. I tried two different firewire cables to ensure that it is not a cable problem. I don't have a capture card dedicated unless my Hauppauge Win TV HVR-1250 can be considered as a capture card. My firewire is out of the system tray, so I did not have a dedicated in system firewire card.
  
  I went through Adobe troubleshooting advice and none of these options helped.

  1. my hardware meets the minimum requirements

  2. recreate (even reinstall) cache does not help.

  3. I have tried two different bands with the same problem

  4. the connection cables work. I even tried two different firewire cables. The two show an iLINK on the camera connection and the capture window can control the playback of the camera without any problems.

  5 scene Detect is grey so I can't turn off, but I don't think it plays a role in the HDV capture.

  6. I checked my device control settings. The unit is set to sony and 1 alternate. I put it this way because I could not capture anything on the standard. I tried this setting and have captured a clip. After that, I could capture is no longer on the new setting. Even though I'm set to Standard or its replacement, the status of the camera is online.

  7 capture with another utility. I tried the software to capture from sony as well as first elements 8.0 and I have the same problems.

  8. make sure that all of the video was made. They are.

  9. Select playback (set to auto) settings.

  10. I'm logged on as an administratore

  11. I don't have a capture card. Do I need one?

  13. I run it with no other current main program execution.

  14. all my drivers are up to date.

  15. my video card driver is current.
  
  I must add that I have the same problem, try other software like Premiere Elements 8.0 and Sony Picture Motion Browser, so I think it's a hardware problem.
  
  I appreciate any suggestions. Do I need a dedicated video capture card? If so, what do you suggest me? Do I need a Firewire 4 pin, rather than a 6 port pins? Do I need a dedicated sony cable as suggested in some forums?
  
  Thanks in advance.

  my gut feeling is that the built-in firewire is not good. but before part you with little money for a PCIe version, it is possible, that you can test the device on another computer? just to rule out the camera itself.

  try to avoid really cheap FW cards. I envy those who have a TI chipset, but it's just anecdotal.

• Need of Professinal Windows 7 settings for the same for factory Installation in order to capture movies with Sony to play memories

  My computer does not Windows 7 installed at the factory.   Our it guy had to customize my computer because I am the network administrator.  He installed Windows 7 Professional instead to be installed at the factory.  Sony support said that PlayMemories works for the factory installed Windows 7.  If you perform a reinstall of Windows 7 Professional, you put in the factory settings or should I always the same questions?  I try to capture movies from a camcorder that records on the front Mini DV camcorder breaks.  Sony advises download PlayMemories and use it to capture the film out of the camera.  But he acknowledges that the pilots of a factory-installed Windows 7 program.

  You need to reinstall using the recovery disks provided Sony, a destructive facility that would destroy everything on the PC, said it depends on how SHE tailored the PC that you have no need to do something special because you are the network administrator

  What HE did was uninstall various utilities of Sony?

  Unable to capture HDV. Unable to capture from a Sony HVR M15U or directly from a Canon XH - A1 or Canon XL - H1 via one cable 1394. Project settings: Capture HDV.

  Parameters:

  M video capture: video capture,

  M: Audio captured audio capture,

  Audio video previews N: video and an Audio excerpt

  The sequence settings: reading: external device: zero, conversion of image format: audio systems Hardware, disable video output in the background, default settings for the General settings.

  The remote control: the remote control DV/HDV

  When I click on change capture settings: Capture format: HDV and HDV settings click the highlight of the yellow border lights, but no window opens. Why a window opens with the settings?

  I can control the HVR M15U, see and hear the video playback, but when I click on the record button, the screen becomes a blue screen with the rules of the game on the video material (what?) text on the screen and no audio. I don't have the ability to detect scene. It records the audio and video in a long clip (blind faith just is the recording and I do not have something for the blind).

  I have an another editing system with Windows 7 64-bit CS4 Production Premium with a Matrox RT - X 2 card. When I connect the HVR-M15U to this system, I can see and hear the recording as it is captured, with scene detect the work.

  My goal is to make this new system works without a Matrox RT - X 2 card. Where can I change the settings in order to see and hear what is recorded? How can I also get the scene detection to work? I made the change of compatible host OHCI 1394 controller (legacy), but that has not changed anything.

  Are there settings to see and hear the video as it is registered?

  Use HDVSplit. Much better than the CS4 PR, offer scene detection, avoids errors OOS (out-of-sync), gives an extract and is free.

• Cannot capture HDV 1080i in CS3 or CS4

  I just shot a minute of video in HDV 1080i with my new SONY HVR - Z5U camcorder format. I have connected a cable IEEE of the camera on my new computer. Premiere Pro is set to HDV, 1080i formats. In shooting mode, I can control the camcorder but nothing appears on the computer screen and nothing is captured. This worked in DV mode with the recorded DV video, but not to the HDV format. How can I record HDV video in my computer?

  

• Unable to capture video from HDV source (Sony HDR FX1) - DELETED FEATURES 13 elements seriously?

  After the purchase of Premiere Elements to capture HDV or DV video and after trying the trial of 12 items, and see the features that I bought the first 13 items, after troubleshoooting and research I discovered they basically stripped this version down to nothing and they sell under the same name of Premiere Elements. It's the wrong principal to say the least, previous versions having these characteristics. Incredible:

  Deleted features first 13 items that were in the first 12 items... aren't you supposed to ADD basic features a new product or to at least provide backward compatibility?

  The following features have been removed in Adobe Premiere Elements:

  • DV capture
  • Capture HDV
  • Timelapse capture (Stop motion)
  • Export to FLV
  • Export to the Web-DVD
  • Block face Pan & Zoom option
  • Interest in Smart trim slider

  So after paying the $$$ I can capture only in old windows movie maker in the file dvr-ms to 1440 x 1080 container (file properties report it to 720 x 480, but this opening in WMP good properties) using the MPEG-2 compression (not good at all for editing... According to the GOP structure) I am quite shocked that they have lowered the bar so low for this product without HDV or even DV acquisition leaves only the WDM capture?

  
  

  I guess they need to force users to pay for Premiere Pro now... it's really disappointing,
  

  
  

  What are my options of acquisition. M2T files now? Are there any plans make the product functional again?

  This isn't Adobe, rather user to user forum. The frequency of the presence of Adobe in this forum is not defined.

  Adobe solutions for the elements 13/13.1 first condition are cited in the document that you seem to have already.

  Removed the unsupported file formats and features. Adobe Premiere Elements 13

  First elements 12/12.1 is the latest version which has the DV and HDV firewire capture in a Capture of the first elements window.

  You can capture firewire in another software and import of these captures in Premiere Elements with Premiere elements/Add Media project / files and folder...

• Sony HVR - Z1U cannot capture - this is because of windows 8?

  I have a brand new Windows 8 machine, core i3, trying to capture video from my Sony HVr - Z1u.

  I installed a new card PCI-Express firewire 1394 a startech.

  With the help of the first Pro CC test.

  iLink downconvert is off. Project is implemented for HDV. Tape recorded in the HDV format, capture the settings for HDV.

  I do most things well because it connects, when I go to capture it says "stopped".

  When I click on save the video begins to play on the camcorder, however the screen on my computer remains blank. Lower-left progressive countdown clock. States to screen captures "capture"Untitled Clip 01.mpeg", press ESC to stop the recording. Capture duration: 00:00:00 (loss 0 images)

  It remains to 00:00:00 time of capture, even while the video plays on the camcorder. While what happens if I go to the tab settings and click 'options' under the control of the device, I get a brief second half or less of the sound on the computer speakers and some video block on the capture screen, then it immediately goes gray and control of device settings window appears. In this window, the parameters are NTSC Sony, Standard. Not matter if I change it for another 1 or 2 another, done the same thing.

  I read the ' can't capture on windows 7 ' of http://forums.adobe.com/thread/521842?tstart=0

  Apparently, they removed the option of former driver under windows 8. See this post: http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=5346067

  I'm not able at the moment to try this, and I was wondering if anyone else is having a similar experience, or has other suggestions.

  After playing with various drivers and settings without success, apparently the ONLY problem was that instead of simply pressing the record button, I have to press play, then press record. Although when I press the manual it does not play, I still need to press Play first. The record button works as a Play/Pause button if I don't actually rely on the piece. What a waste of time trying to figure that one. Is this a software bug?

• Capture HDV

  I'm an amateur and I have about 20 tapes (Sony VX2000) DV and 10 tapes HDV (Sony HVR - A1U) I want to capture on my PC, mainly for archival purposes, so that I can sell the old (er) material. At some point I plan to go through all these images and slaughter in a few hours of the guardians, which can be later converted in a high quality format. I am currently using the first Pro CS5 for all editing.

  My PC is a couple of years old (Q6600 @ 3 GHz, 4 GB RAM, SSD, local storage main drive and additional network) with Adobe Creative Suite CS5, running Windows 7 x 64. I also NeoScene v1.60 if necessary.

  What is the best format to capture these images, which is quite universal and likely to be read easily 5 to 10 years? I don't plan to do more basic split / pad edition.

  The DV sounds easy, ScenealyzerLive or WinDV is probably one of the best choices right?

  The HVR - A1U HDV footage is the main concern. Should I just use something like HDVSplit and capture video MPEG-TS (m2t files)? Looks like the capture using the Cineform codec would be overkill for my needs and lock myself in a format not standard.

  Thanks a lot for the pointers and suggestions!

  Due to the nature of the sequence that you have, you are better off just capture to the format that corresponds to the digital signal on the tape. The DV tapes will be captured DV AVI, and you seize tapes HDV to HDV M2Ts. To oversimplify it, you're really just "copy" the data records, because they are already digital.

  Premiere Pro will do a great job in itself for the DV tapes; many people seem to use HDVSplit for HDV capture, as it does not seem to suffer from all the problems of synchronization that HDV capture in Premiere Pro only. In the case of DV and HDV formats, you are looking at about 13 GB per hour of footage. You should be sure with these codecs and formats for the next few years; It's standard codecs 'pro' which was dripping on the market, so there is support for them in the future.

• Unable to capture HD video using Windows Movie Maker or Cyberlink Power Director of Canon HV30 on I.Link (firewire)

  Canon HV30 HDV Capture Issues Firewire in Win 7 (64-bit)

  There seems to be a problem with Windows 7 (64 bit) in the HD video capture from a Canon HV30 on I.Link (firewire). The camera is detectable, but I am unable to capture videos HD using Windows Movie Maker or Cyberlink Power Director. All the drivers and the software updated.

  Same camera, same editing works very well under Win XP.

  Someone at - he a workarouonds?

  (1) the question arose on January 20, 2010, when I got my new computer (Dell XPS 9000) WIN 7 (64-bit) and I first tried to capture video, I had already shot with the Canon Vixia HV - 30.

  (2) the updated capture in place according to the manual of Canon, using the firewire interface to download video using Power Director 7 or Windows Movie Maker.

  -Power Director 7 is able to detect and control the camera, however once the capture begins an error message appears saying that the i-link on the camera mode is not compatible with the Strip to be captured. Verified media is HDV (60i) and playback camera settings are all correct.

  -Windows Moview Maker is able to detect and control the camera, however, no video is captured and no error message appears.

  (3) will try to reinstall the drivers for the HV30.

• Economy of capture HDV in MP3 format

  Hello... I have no problem with DV with CS6 capture, but trying to capture HDV, when I press stop in the capture window, rather than appear immediately to give the name of the file, location etc., dialog box option instead just automatically recorded as an MP3 file on the location of the recorded disc... Needless to say I can't even import this file in my project PP. MP3 As mentioned, this does not happen with standard DV import. FWIW I'm captured HDV footage on a Mini DV cassette from my Sony V1 camcorder via a Firewire cable to my PC.

  Any suggestion or help will be greatly appreciated... Thank you very much in advance.

  Here, many of us use the free HDVSplit for HDV capture:

  HDVSplit 0.77 beta

  Don't be fooled by the designation of the beta.  It is a program of old, but reliable.

• Sony CCD-TRV608 camcorder. can not find drivers for it to work with Windows 7.

  I have a Sony CCD-TRV608 camcorder and can not find drivers for it to work with Windows 7.  I've been on the Sony website and they do not have something there that I can find... most of the options you can choose to say there is nothing available after you select them.   Problem #2 - I do not know what kind of cable I need to connect the camcorder to the computer.  Any ideas?  Thank you very much!

  Hello JacquieXU,

  You will need a USB cable to connect the camcorder to the computer. You can directly connect the USB cable which you would have received with the camcorder and would appear as a plug-and-play device. If you have the software Camcorder installed on the computer, it will directly load the default drivers when you connect the camcorder.

  If the USB generic drivers are unable to load when you connect the camera, check if the camcorder is compatible with Windows 7.

  Thank you

• Cannot capture HDV in Windows 7

  I have a new Windows 7 PC (Dell Studio XPS 9000) and have not been able to capture HDV from my Canon Vixia HV30 camcorder.  I could not capture DV no problem when I put the camcorder to downgrade the output using 'DV Lock.  I tried Movie Maker and several other programs with the same result.  Each program recognizes the HV30 correctly.  When I start the capture, the computer manages to control the camcorder and begins to play.  However, HD video capture, usually to create a 0 bit file.

  I tried using different software in compatibility mode of previous versions of Windows and have also tried to use the "legacy" Firewire driver version, but nothing seems to solve the problem.  I don't know exactly what the problem.  I've seen some reviews that mention another card Firewire is required.  I also noticed that the Canon HV30 Windows driver is a "generic A / audio-visual device" driver.  I wonder if there is something that Microsoft needs to get to a specific Canon for Win7 driver.

  For any help or suggestion would be great!

  Hello ej76,
