When capturing DV formats, Premiere Pro will use QuickTime as the container for the DV codec in Mac OS and AVI is used for
Windows. When capturing HDV, Premiere Pro will use MPEG as the format. For other formats, you must use a video capture card for
digitizing or capturing. See Digitizing analog video and Capturing HD video.
Set capture preferences
1. Choose Edit > Preferences > Capture (Windows) or Premiere Pro > Preferences > Capture (Mac OS).
2. Specify whether you want to cancel capture on dropped frames, report dropped frames, or generate a batch log file.
3. Specify whether to use device control timecode. If a device controller is installed, Premiere Pro can record the timecode supplied by the
controller instead of recording any timecode written to the source tape.
Select tracks for capture
1. To open the Capture panel, select File > Capture.
2. In the Capture panel, click the panel menu.
3. Select Record Video, Record Audio, or Record Audio and Video, depending on the option desired.
Capture from stereo sources to mono tracks
You can capture from sources containing stereo or 5.1 audio channels so that each audio channel maps to its own mono audio track
automatically. The Mono Default Track Format preference enables this behavior for footage captured from multi-channel sources, and for imported
multi-channel files. For more information about audio channel mapping, see Mapping source and output audio channels.
1. Select Edit > Preferences > Audio (Windows), or Premiere Pro > Preferences > Audio (Mac OS).
2. In the Source Channel Mapping pane of the Preferences dialog box, select Mono from the Default Track Format menu.
3. Click OK.
File size limits
Premiere Pro does not limit the size of files. However, your capture card, operating system, or hard disk can set such a limit. Check your capture
card and hard disk documentation for information on support of large files.
The format of your hard disk greatly affects its ability to handle large files. FAT32 formatting limits each file to 4 GB, or about 18 minutes of DV
