RE: OT: DVD Avi to DV Tape

["Paul Gale" <groups@xxxxxxx>]

Paul,

I run a New Media business specialising in Video Production, streaming, CD,= DVD etc.

For the very small cost of DV tape (a bit more if you're using Pro tape) - = I always keep the original as an archive and therefore don't need to play i= t back to tape again. I'm not quite sure why you want to do this unless you= 've either: a) wiped the original tape :( or b) only want to record back to= tape selected segments i.e. not the whole tape. If it's b) I don't bother = doing this as it's just as easy to pull sections again from the tape using = Premiere's DV device control and batch capture lists.

Anyway, back to your problem - Are you using a hardware accelerated capture= card (Matrox, Pinnacle etc?) and what ver of Premiere? With most setups, y= ou should be able to play the unedited video straight out to DV so it sound= s like your project settings might not be correct. You will have to transfe= r at 1:1 speed i.e. if your footage lasts 1 hour, it'll take an hour to tra= nsfer. There are some devices out there that will do x2 or x4 transfer but = these are specialist and expensive.

Let me know what your setup is and what settings you have in Premiere and I= 'll see if I can help further.

Cheers,

Paul Gale
