DV-1394 devices with Adobe Premiere Pro

• For up-to-date information about supported DV-1394 devices, check the

Matrox RT.X Support section of our web site at www.matrox.com. If your

DV-1394 device is not supported, you may not be able to accurately use

device control for batch capture and export to tape. In this case, you can

manually capture your clips and manually activate DV recording to record

material onto tape. For other important information about using DV-1394

devices, see the section titled “Things you need to know about using

DV-1394 devices” in the “Defining Your Adobe Premiere Settings” chapter

of your Matrox RT.X10 Xtra Installation and User Guide.

• When performing a DV-1394 batch capture, you may lose the video display

in the

Capture window. The display will resume at the start of the next clip

in the batch list. (Ref# 21026)

• When using the Go To time code feature of Adobe Premiere Pro’s

Capture

window, typing a number higher than the last frame on your tape will not cue

to the end of your tape. (Ref# 17998)

• When performing an export to DV tape, make sure that your DV-1394 device

is set to use the time code format (drop frame or non-drop frame) that you’ve

striped on your DV tape. (Ref# 26814)

•In the

Matrox DV Export to Tape dialog box, if you click the Browse

button to add a logo (.tga) to your recording, the name of the .tga file will be

displayed in the

Browse dialog box until you select another .tga file. If you

want to add the logo (.tga) to your recording, you must enter a duration.

(Ref# 26965)

• When performing an export to DV tape in which the audio portion of your

Timeline is longer than the video portion, the entire audio portion will not be

exported correctly. As a workaround, use the work area bar to select the

entire range you want to export, and choose

Work Area from the Project list

in the

Matrox DV Export to Tape dialog box. (Ref# 28480)

• When capturing analog video from your DV-1394 device using Matrox

DV-1394 Device Control, the capture may take longer to start if the device is

not already playing when you begin the capture. (Ref# 27238)

• Your DV tapes must contain continuous and consecutive time code. If you

have to use a tape that hasn’t been striped to record video, however, continue

recording for a few seconds after the material you want, then rewind the

tape, and begin recording again over the material you don’t want to ensure

that there are no gaps between recorded material. You can also use the

edit-search function on your DV-1394 device. (Ref# 29026)
