  • “can’t find capture inpoint” help me

    Posted by Tyler Groom on October 21, 2007 at 5:56 pm

    Hey Guys I am using Premiere Pro v7.0 on Windows Vista and everytime I try to capture it says “can’t find inpoint, try increasing preroll” I tried increasing preroll but the same error message popped up and it wont let me capture manually either.. What do I do to fix this? Oh by the way I am using a sony pd150. Thanks

    Did you choose Sony and PD150 in Device Control options? If not did that help?
    Will another camera and/or tape capture?

    If no to both… well my first thought was Premiere 7 and Vista?? I cant believe it installed AND launched.

    Yes I selected pd150 in options. Still nothing. I don’t have another camera to try, but I just order cs3 so we will see if that helps. Should the pd150 capture in cs3?

    Your problem is Vista. Revert to XP and your troubles will disappear.

    but will cs3 resolve the problems also, cuz I really dont want to have to revert to xp?

    CS3 can run with Vista 32, but why you want to double your memory requirements and quadruple your HD requirements for the OS is beyond me.

    well I have vista with media center and I like being able to record television shows and what not.

    well upgrade to CS3 then and double your memory and add another disk while you are at it.

    I have 3gb of ram and 640gb hard drive space, plus a 250gb external hard, is that enough?

    3 GB should be enough, although it might be better to use 4 1GB sticks to profit from the dual channel configuration. Disk space is enough but use an additional disk. 1 for OS, 1 for media and 1 for scratch/previews.

    well I have a 320gb hard drive (internal) another 320gb hard drive (internal) and a 250gb external hard drive. The first one has the os installed on it, I have media on the second 320 and i have backups on the external. Should I buy another hard drive to use for scratch and previews? Thanks
