Premiere Capture problem

Post by Darzeth »

When im trying to capture with Premiere Pro from my Sony DCR HC36 it wont show on the capture screen and says the camera is offline. Is there any way to fix this so i can capture the video with premiere. Which settings do i have to do or upgrades do i have to do. I check the adobe website and they dont got it for my camera.

Are you using usb or fire wire?

because Premiere doesn't work with usb cord.

I don't think WMM will import footage grainier since it's free, I'm pretty sure It's your camera. Try filming stuff with more light.
