Capturing in Premiere Pro 2, with GY-HD100U "A"

[Hotmatch]

Hello Dvx user community,

My question is regarding a problem I’m having with Capturing HDV video clips in Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0, using the JVC GY-HD100U “A” version.

The video clips I’m capturing are in 24p HDV and 30p HDV. I’m using an updated version of Windows XP, and a Radeon x850 xt pe graphics card, with the latest Catalyst drivers for it. I’m using the firewire from the cam to the firewire on my motherboard (asus p4c800 deluxe mobo).

I can’t preview the video on my CRT monitor while the capture is in process. All I see on the screen in Premiere Pro 2.0 are the words… “Capturing…” with a black background behind it. In order to actually see the video I’m capturing during the capturing process I have to use the tiny LCD screen on the camera. Which is functional, but not very fun to do. However, I can see a preview in Premiere when I use a little DV cam I bought about 6 years ago (Sony TRV320).

I think this must be a settings problem within Adobe Premiere Pro V2.0, but I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong.

I’m a noob by the way, so go easy on me. I’ve only had the camera for 2 weeks, and the program for even less than that… lol.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I think (I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong) PP2.0 doesn't have a project setting for the JVC's 24P.

I think you have to get AspectHD, which is a plug-in for PP. You can download a trial version, I believe.

Don't know if that's the exact source of your problem, but I'm a PP user thinking of getting a JVC.

I'm having the exact same problem. A JVC rep at NAB told me that Adobe has a patch that is available on JVC website which will allow users of PP 2.0 to create a HD 100 HDV project. I tried to locate this patch both on JVC and Adobe but so far I have not had any luck. This patch might fix the above mentioned problem.

Switch to vegas and ditch Premiere. Too many problems since version 1.5 and too many crash stories. Adobe doesn't make good NLE. They are awesome for Photoshop, Audition and aftereffects..but for premiere...so sad.
