device control settings?
Hi there,
Just a quick question
May sound really stupid
I was wandering if someone could tell me about the DV/HDV device control settings within he preference menu.
Do I need to set this up with my camera… brand type etc
Or does it make a difference?
Also is there anybody who could tell me about what format Premiere captures DV and HDV video in … I have Premiere CS5 Mac.
thanks for your time 🙂

If you are capturing via FireWire – it’ll most likely read it just fine. Hook up cam/deck b/4 launching the app.
DV and HDV via FW come in as they are. FW transfers digital information.
DV comes in as DV.Hook it up, hit record.

and HDV comes in a mpeg2 iframe or something?

Yes, DV comes in a .mov, everything comes in to a .mov file, this is what FCP edits.
HDV is it’s own codec. Still .mov. It is long-gop, you can ingest to Prores, highly recommended.
DV comes in a DV. (quicktime.mov)

Sorry, thought you were in FCP, don’t know if you have the Prores option in APP when capturing HDV.
