Performing a capture using device control
When a device and the project are set up properly, you can begin capturing clips using
device control. First you mark In and Out points, and then you capture the clip. If you want
to mark In and Out points for many clips and have Adobe Premiere Pro capture all of the
clips at once, see “Batch-capturing video” on page 72.
To capture an entire tape:
1 Choose File > Capture to open the Capture window.
2 Make sure that your device is online, as indicated above the preview in the Capture
window. If the message “Capture Device Offline” appears there, see “Setting up device
control equipment” on page 68.
3 Rewind the entire tape to the beginning.

To mark a clip to be captured using device control:
1 Choose File > Capture to open the Capture window.
2 Make sure that your device is online, as indicated above the preview in the Capture
window. If the message “Capture Device Offline” appears there, see “Setting up device
control equipment” on page 68.
3 Use the controls in the Capture window to move to the first frame in the clip you want
to capture, and click the Set In button.
4 Use the controls in the Capture window to move to the last frame in the clip, and click
the Set Out button.
To move or play in relation to the In and Out points:
Do either of the following:
• To move the tape to the In point, click the Go To In Point button .
• To move the tape to the Out point, click the GoTo Out Point button .
You can also set In and Out points by entering timecode values in the Capture
window.
To capture a clip using device control:
1 In the Capture panel of the Logging tab in the Capture window, set the following
options as desired:
• Scene Detect creates separate clips at any scene breaks detected between the In and
Out points (see “Using automatic scene detection” on page 75).
• Handles captures the specified number of frames before the In point and after the Out
point to provide flexibility for editing and transitions.
2 Do one of the following:
• To record a clip from the video as it plays in the Capture window, press the Record
button . This doesn’t require setting In and Out points.
• To capture from the In point to the Out point, click Capture In/Out. Adobe Premiere Pro
automatically moves the tape to the Preroll specified before the In point and captures
the clip. If you specified handles, those frames are included during the capture.
The captured file appears at the disk location you chose and is listed in the project in the
bin you specified (if any) with the name you gave it.
Note: To capture more than one set of In and Out points, see “Batch-capturing video” on
page 72.
