ADOBE PREMIERE PRO CS3 54 User Guide "Export a movie file for further editing" on page 386 "Export a sequence to tape with device control" on page 405 Capturing HD video You can capture audio and video from an HD device with an SDI port, provided your computer has a supported SDI capture card installed, along with its drivers and software. Similarly, you can import HD footage from XDCAM sources provided a supported XDCAM capture card or drive is installed, along with its respective driver. The correct installation adds HD project presets to the Load Preset pane of the New Project panel and HD capture formats to the Capture Format drop-down menu in the Capture area of the Custom Settings pane. You typically connect the HD device to your computer by connecting its SDI ports by coaxial cable with BNC connectors. To provide device control (Windows only), you also connect the serial port on the device with an RS422 or RS-232 port on the computer. Refer to the setup instructions provided by the capture card manufacturer. Note: You can import DVCPRO HD assets directly from a Panasonic P2 card, without an additional capture step. For more information, see "Importing assets from file-based sources" on page 82. See also "Set up an SD-SDI, HD-SDI, or component system" on page 48 "Set up device control" on page 58 "Capture without device control" on page 60 "Export a movie file for further editing" on page 386 "About exporting to videotape" on page 404 Capture 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 digitizers provide device control. They connect to your source device through RS-232 or RS-422 ports, enabling you to control the device through Adobe 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 Adobe Technical Support.
