Common capture issues If you run into problems while capturing digital footage, refer to Premiere Pro Help or the documentation for your camera, deck, or capture card. For more information, check Troubleshoot digital video capture and playback. The following are common issues that may arise when you capture digital video: • If your device (camera or deck) goes into sleep mode, close and then reopen the Capture panel; or close the Capture panel, turn the device off and back on, and then reopen the Capture panel. You can disable sleep mode on many cameras by connecting them to AC power and ejecting the tape. • If video looks grainy in the Capture panel or Monitor panel, Premiere Pro may have decreased display quality to preserve capture quality. Video is captured and stored at the quality you determine and always plays at that quality on an NTSC or PAL monitor. On slower systems, Premiere Pro may lower the quality of the capture preview in order to ensure that sufficient CPU resources are available for full-quality capture. • If the video image does not appear in the Capture panel, verify your device control and capture settings. Then, leaving the device on, restart Premiere Pro. • If captured audio and video are not in sync, make sure that sections of tape weren't skipped (left unrecorded) between shots. Blank tape areas lack timecode, which may cause interruptions in the camera time mode. When you capture the blank area, the camera doesn't transmit valid frames, but time continues to be marked. • If no audio is recording, try playing a source through the computer's sound input and speaker system without recording. If you can't hear it, the audio source may not be connected properly or audio parameters may not be set properly. Check hardware connections, Sounds And Audio Devices in the Windows Control Panel, and mixer settings, and refer to the documentation for your sound card. In Premiere Pro, select Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Premiere Pro > Preferences (Mac OS), and check the settings for Audio, Audio Hardware, and Audio Output Mapping. Last updated 1/16/2012

Scene Detect starts a separate file (Windows) or subclip (Mac OS) at the first frame of each scene
Note:
Scene detection works for DV, HDV 1080i, and HDV 720p footage.
Common capture issues
If you run into problems while capturing digital footage, refer to Premiere Pro Help or the documentation for your
camera, deck, or capture card. For more information, check
Troubleshoot digital video capture and playback
. The
following are common issues that may arise when you capture digital video:
If your device (camera or deck) goes into sleep mode, close and then reopen the Capture panel; or close the Capture
panel, turn the device off and back on, and then reopen the Capture panel. You can disable sleep mode on many
cameras by connecting them to AC power and ejecting the tape.
If video looks grainy in the Capture panel or Monitor panel, Premiere Pro may have decreased display quality to
preserve capture quality. Video is captured and stored at the quality you determine and always plays at that quality
on an NTSC or PAL monitor. On slower systems, Premiere Pro may lower the quality of the capture preview in
order to ensure that sufficient CPU resources are available for full-quality capture.
If the video image does not appear in the Capture panel, verify your device control and capture settings. Then,
leaving the device on, restart Premiere Pro.
If captured audio and video are not in sync, make sure that sections of tape weren’t skipped (left unrecorded)
between shots. Blank tape areas lack timecode, which may cause interruptions in the camera time mode. When you
capture the blank area, the camera doesn’t transmit valid frames, but time continues to be marked.
If no audio is recording, try playing a source through the computer’s sound input and speaker system without
recording. If you can’t hear it, the audio source may not be connected properly or audio parameters may not be set
properly. Check hardware connections, Sounds And Audio Devices in the Windows Control Panel, and mixer
settings, and refer to the documentation for your sound card. In Premiere Pro, select Edit > Preferences (Windows)
or Premiere Pro > Preferences (Mac OS), and check the settings for Audio, Audio Hardware, and Audio Output
Mapping.
