Export a sequence to tape with device control

Before you export to videotape using device control, make sure that both the computer and the camera or deck are set up properly, as you would
when capturing video with device control (see Set up device control).

If you’re using equipment that comes with its own software plug-in for use with Premiere Pro, it may provide device control options different from
those described here, and in different locations. (For information, see the documentation for the device.)

Before you can export a sequence to an HDV device, you must first transcode it to HDV format. Premiere Pro does this transcoding automatically
just before exporting the sequence to an HDV device.

You can export to tape on an HDV device in Windows only, and only with device control over FireWire.

1. Make sure that your video recording device is on and that the correct tape is in the device. If necessary, locate and note the timecode for

the location at which you want to begin recording. (This requires a tape recorded with timecode. See Stripe tape or replace timecode.)

2. Activate the sequence you want to export, and position the work area bar over the section of the sequence you want to export.

To place the work area bar over the whole section of the sequence that is visible in the Timeline panel double-click in the space just
under the time ruler. To first view the whole sequence, press the backslash (\) key.

3. Choose File > Export > Export To Tape.

4. To let Premiere Pro control your deck, select Activate Recording Device and do any of the following:

To specify a particular frame on the tape to start recording, select Assemble At Timecode and type the In point. If you don’t select this
option, recording begins at the current tape location.

To synchronize a device’s timecode with the recording start time, select Delay Movie Start and type the numbers of frames that you want
to delay the movie. Some devices need a delay between the time they receive the record command and the time the movie starts
playing from the computer.

To have Premiere Pro roll the tape before the specified start time so that the deck can attain a constant speed, select Preroll and type
the number of frames you want the tape to play before recording begins. For many decks, 150 frames is sufficient.

5. In the Options section, select any of the following options:

Ends export automatically if a specified number of frames is not exported successfully. Specify the number in

the box.

Generates a text report alerting you to dropped frames.

Prevents sequences containing complex audio from causing dropped frames during export.
