There’s propably a limit with your Radeon Card.
I have the DV-500 from Pinnacle (try to get one via ebay). I can capture without limitations using Premiere 6.5
Also you could check on your codec. I believe OpenDML is a keyword you want to look for. This will enable AVI to go beyond 2 GB (or 4 GB)
Sincerely,

I haven’t heard of AE being able to capture. But there are many capture tools out there. VirtualDub is one of them, iirc.
Best way is with a true bluescreen background….. Don’t try it with AE on a textured background. It will kill you!
Best type? One which is mounted to a tripod. I have the XL-1, works great for me especially with different light setups…

Press ‘M’ on your keyboard. Just like Timothy said, this will activate the multi-track select and help you drag the video to close the gap.
You might want to change your view so you can see the entire gap and by using the multi track select can drag it in one piece. Dragging and waiting is just a pain. I can’t recall a ripple Delete in 6.5.
Cheers,

Answer 1: Try to learn how to stretch a clip (especially the still clips like your black video). Move your mouse to the end of the black video (hopefully this a Premiere Title) and drag it to the right. If you have a clip sitting there, it won’t go any further. But if you drag your clip to an empty track you are able to make it longer than clip number 1.
Answer 2: A/B editing means that you run 2 tracks in parallel. The point where 2 clips overlap is where you want to put A/B Transitions.
If one track is empty but the other is not, then don’t worry. Then it will be just as if it is transparent. If there is no clip at all, it will render black.3. when using plug-ins in adobe premiere 6.5..can they be automated…i mean, trying to change the way the plug-in effect will act rather than just being too steady..
Answer 3: I hope I get your question right. Double click on the effect and change its properties. If it’s a simple A/B Fade, then there’s nothing you can do. If it’s a more complex effect, you’ll see options of what to change (for example Blinds: Number of Blinds or Alignment). Usually the Effects that come with Premiere don’t allow a change in speed within the Effect. To do so, you’ll need to add the same effect at least twice. One going from 0% to 50% and the other one doing the rest. If Effect 1 takes 2 Seconds and Effect 2 only 1 second, you’ll notice a speed change.
Answer 4: Change Speed of Video below 100%
Answer 5: YES! This will give you TV output. A computer screen shows a non interlaced video, the TV will… (this is important on titling and when working at the border (outside TV Safe zone)).
Answer 6: Can’t tell, I’m using german version of Premiere.
Answer 7: I do wedding videos. Aiming for aprox. 1 h total time of the Video. While editing, experience will help you in not making scenes too long. Besides, when a Hollywood movie is done, there’s someone who puts together the scenes while considering the storyline. So he has the important scenes and has the option to leave out less important ones. A Storyline is what you want when doing a movie. If you do a documentation (a wedding video would be a documentation), you’ll have to use every good scene taken and at the end cut out the ones you don’t want (or think that you can live without them)….
