Importing, transferring, capturing, and digitizing
Last updated 1/16/2012
Note:
When creating low-resolution clips for offline editing with Adobe Media Encoder, clips with two audio channels
are created even if you have four or more audio channels on your footage. This problem is a limitation of Adobe Media
Encoder, so use an alternate tool if the other audio channels are to be preserved.
9
In the Premiere Pro Project panel, open the bin you created for low-resolution clips. Import the low-resolution clips
into this bin.
10
Edit the project using the low-resolution clips.
Replace low-resolution clips with high-resolution clips for online editing
You can replace low-resolution copies of assets with the original high-resolution so that you can render a project at
full resolution.
1
Select Clip > Replace Footage. Browse to the original high-resolution clip that has the same filename as the low-
resolution clip you selected, and select it. Click Select.
2
Repeat the previous two steps for each low-resolution clip used in the project.
Digitizing analog video
In order to edit video shot in an analog format, you must first digitize it. You can digitize it by routing the video signal
through either a digital camcorder that can digitize on the fly or a digitizing device installed in your computer.
Alternatively, you can dub the analog footage to a digital format, and then capture the video from a digital device
through a capture card as any other digital source. Depending on your equipment, you may be able to digitize analog
video from any of several signal types, including component video, composite video, and S-Video. Some third-party
digitizers provide device control. They connect to your source device through RS-232 or RS-422 ports, enabling you
to control the device through Premiere Pro’s Capture panel and to perform batch capturing. Refer to the instructions
included with your camcorder and digitizer/capture card. For information on troubleshooting analog video capture,
go to

About capture card settings
Some of the capture settings you see in Premiere Pro may be from the plug-in software that came with your
digitizer/capture card. Because of the differences among brands of cards, specific options and supported formats can
vary. This complex relationship between video capture cards and Premiere Pro can make it difficult to identify which
part of the system is responsible for a particular option or problem. Adobe, as well as most capture card manufacturers,
provides troubleshooting documents online that can help you determine whether an option or problem is related to
the video capture card and its software or to Premiere Pro. Check the Premiere Pro website and the capture card
manufacturer’s website for troubleshooting resources.
Most of the supported capture cards install a settings file (preset) that you can select in the Premiere Pro New Project
dialog box, in the Load Preset pane. This preset automatically sets all capture settings for optimal support of your
capture card. For best results, use your capture card’s preset, if provided, and don’t change the capture settings in the
Custom Settings pane.
