  Changing Capture Settings?

  Posted by Steve Cohen on February 20, 2009 at 4:12 pm

  I’m using Premier 1.5 (Yes I not it is old, but that’s what I have)with a Blackmagic MultiBridge Extreme to capture.

  My problem is even though I set the Blackmagic Preferences to capture DV/DVCPro25 (and it does when I capture using the BlackMagic Controller). When I try to capture in Premier it will only capture at an 8 Bit Uncompressed setting.

  Any ideas on how to capture at DV quality in Premier using the BlackMagic?

  Thanks;

  DV is 8-bit. Uncompressed is higher quality than to DV.
  Sounds like you’re set.? Unless you’re having issues with uncompressed file sizes?

  I do find it odd that there is no DV capture. Perhaps you can update a driver or something, for your BlackMagic.
  Maybe look in your project settings, under DV Device (I can’t remember exactly right now).
