Capture panel with Logging active
When logging HDV and other Long GOP formats, be sure to add handles in the Handles setting of the Capture section.
Because of the nature of Long GOP formats, inaccuracy in actual media content is possible. Adding handles assures
that you have the proper frames needed for editing and, if need be, recapturing.
Log clips interactively
1
Make sure that your device is connected and in VTR or VCR (not Camera) mode, and then choose File > Capture.
2
In the Logging pane, enter the settings you want to use as the defaults for Setup and Clip Data.
3
Play the tape. Click Set In or Set Out at any time, even as the tape plays. Repeat as necessary.
4
When you are satisfied with the In and Out points, click Log Clip, verify the clip data, and click OK.
You can make slight timecode adjustments by using the plus sign (+) or minus sign (–). For example, to add five frames
to the end of the Out point, select the entire Out point timecode, type
+5
, and press Enter/Return.
Tips for logging clips interactively
•
Set options on the Logging pane of the Capture panel. Premiere Pro uses the current data in the Setup and Clip Data
sections as defaults for subsequent logged clips. If you want to log a series of clips into the same bin with similar
logging data, save work by specifying clip data before you start logging the series. When you click the Log Clip
button, a dialog box appears so that you can accept or change the clip data.
•
In the Clip Data section, specify a tape name. Premiere Pro asks for this name every time you begin batch capturing.
