Premiere-to-tape

Recommended Posts

I have the following problem:

I can capture the video from my PC9 and cut it with Premiere 6.5. But if I want to play the timeline back to the camcorder it does not work. I'm using Windows 2000 and it worked with XP (but had to change it). Do I need a PC9 driver for Windows 2000? I also can't control the camcorder any more in the capture window.
thanks

As far as how you put it back to tape, tell us your method of trying.

Now, to capture... make sure that your "setup" screens correct. Sometimes, it turns off what controls the camera. I can't remember exactly what it's called, but it is a pulldown menu that usually just has the options "none" and "device control 2.0" or something like that.

Are you using a Premiere certified capture card?

That's the problem I have: I can import video from the camera and edit it just fine, but I cannot export more than a few seconds of video to the camera properly.

What card are you using? (I should probably start another thread on what the best and least expensive card is for doing general video work with Premiere v6.x)

as I said the option to record the timeline back to tape was working with the Windows XP version (but with the problems of getting blue shots in the video). So I switched to Win 2000 and now I need a Sony driver for Win 2000 and I don't know were to get it.
Fire Wire card should be fine....

p.s.> my method to put it back on tape is to run the timeline and set the camera on record (that's how it worked with XP)

Not necessarily. This is what I'd lean towards being the source of your problem.

Make sure the card is showing up in your Device Manager as an OHCI compliant device, and it's on its own IRQ. The IRQ is most likely what's going to clear up your problems.

During the Operating System install, it's likely the card was assigned an IRQ that's being shared with another device. IRQ sharing is less than ideal. Manually change the IRQ, tweak your BIOS, or try moving the card to another PCI slot.

Not sure about doing it like that. I always do "print to tape" and then right when I hit start for that, I start the recording of my tape. I always thought that was how you should do it.

Try it this way.

sorry to bother you again.

checked this and it's ok. If I want to use the menu option "copy to tape" I can't click on it cause it is disabled....
any more suggestions?

thanks

Does your camera display the video during playback?

Make sure your camera is on and connected before you open Premiere.

Highlight the timeline, and press Enter. Do you see video on the LCD of your camcorder?

I don't know if this is a solution to your problem, but it may help. Don't forget when you go to put video from your cpu to your camera, you have to make sure your camera is recording....just like when you fire wire from one camera to another. Also, 6.5 and windows 2000 is what I'm using too...I had problems with it crashing all the time..so I uninstalled 6.5, then reinstalled it and everythings fine. Maybe you can check for driver updates @ microsoft's web site? Or give me a call, maybe I can help 812-343-5872 ask for ryan
