Don’t think it can be a camera issue, I’m using the same set-up as pre XP SP2 (a Sony camera or most of the time a Canopus ADVC100 external converter box)
This issue only comes up with SP2 installed – as soon as I de-install it everything is back to the way it should be with no delay via the firewire. Adobe must be aware of it, wonder if they’re going to come up with a fix.

Apologies, I assumed Elements is like PPro – just saw on Adobe.com there are distinct seperate try-out versions for NTSC and Pal – forgive my iignorance and the post above!
Wonder why though?

There is no limitation on editing either Pal or NTSC with the same program (i.e. there is only one program which does both). It is not intended for format conversion between the two and mixing formats in one project also does not work.
So… edit NTSC footage in an NTSC project and Pal in a Pal project. If you need to convert the finished edit to another format, use tools intended for that like Canopus Procoder or similar (Google or Yahoo will show you some more solutions)

Computers don’t care about Pal, NTSC or whatever… you will be able to watch it if you have the right player software/ codec on your computer.

There are two more ways to do the same thing:… At the top of the timeline is a grey bar with what looks like a fat comma attached to either end. If you click and drag those fat commas you get the the same effect as with the mountain thingy except with much more control because it operates over a larger window and you can expand the timeline either to the left or the right. (I use this one all the time)
The other way is of course the “Zoom Tool” in the tools palette to the left of the timeline – use this tool to click on the timeline to enlarge and Alt-click to shrink.
Just one point for future reference, the term nesting in editing is normally used when one timeline or part of it (or sequence as Premiere calls it) is used in another timeline.

Although your solution can work if you have a very fast lan with a small user base, it is not the optimal one. DVD is meant for DVD discs – streaming video/audio is for Lans, Wans and Intra/Internet. Windows media (and others) have all kinds of presets for different scenarios and can also be integrated with Web page hyperlinks. With the correct setup you can have a secure situation where the right people can view the training material, watch the relevant videos, take on-line tests and exams, do “refreshers” etc. Speak to your web designers or IT guys to get info about all the possibilities.

Some of these generalist forums are sometimes slightly behind the curve or the cutting edge or whatever you choose to call it.(Most of the people on those forums repeat 2nd hand opinions not based on personal experience.) Premiere Pro 1.5 is so close to FCP that you can use the training resources from one to learn the other (with only minor exceptions).(Yes, I think PPro “learned” a lot from FCP!)
Avid has several iterations/versions so direct comparisons becomes more complex… when it comes to real world editing, PPro is every bit as “professional” as any of the mentioned applications.
Where Avid is stronger is in workgroup systems where several systems can be connected for a collaborative workflow.
PPro is strongest when it comes to it’s tight integration with Adobe After Effects, Audition, Encore and Photoshop… none of the others have it quite so comprehensively sorted yet.
