[keano] “say if it is a still image you can insert the clip”
BTW you said clip originally
Just drop the still at the end of the left clip and grab the right edge of the still and drag it to the edge of the right clip -
[Graham Quince] ” My concern is that the audio right on the desk, seemed really quite quiet post-capture.”
One thing, you didn’t mention what kind of cam you are using?
digital or analog?Problem is that there is no place in premiere to monitor audio levels when capturing via firewire, there are a couple of things you can do though, if you have a DV camcorder plug the output of the mixer into the cam’s mic input,you might need a pad to match impedence, and use the cam’s firewire to capture, If a analog cam use the converter like you are doing, There is a program called Scenalyzer it has a reasonable accurate audio bargraph under its video view window, just keep the peaks out of the red going into the yellow is ok, you can either capture your dv video with scenalyzer for use in premiere, or just use it to calibrate your audio levels and capture in premiere, either way you will have a better idea of audio levels

The basic idea of saying how long a timeline can be is just to demostrate how much extra real estate there is with two 4:3 19s vice a single 24 wide screen even though there is a small break between them, the actual arangement of the elements is personal perference, personally I prefer various arangements of two monitors over a single large screen particually with multitasking a app like production studio, as far as color differences between monitors soneone else mentioned, it is basically asthetic as most color correction is done on external video monitors, in cases where I use AFX for computer graphics vice video I have one DVI monitor I calibrate for preview via a quadro card.
Another point can be that in most cases two smaller monitors can be less expensive than one large for a given usable area -

[jkm777] “For Vista 64 and CS3,”
Just Curious, is there a reason you are using 64bit software for 32 bit apps?

The original DVX letterboxed 4:3, the DVXa DSP upscaled the letterboxed 4:3 to a anamorphic 16:9, which was a tad worse than a VX/PD upscaled cropped footage, both lose vertical resolution by going from 480pixels V to about 360pixels V best want to shoot 16:9 on the DVX/DVXa and VX/PD is with Anamorphic conversion lenses which give a full 720×480 1.2 anamorphic.
