I am using a firwire card that has a Texas Instruments chipset [like 99% of all the other cards i have found around !!!] The FW card ias recognoxed by WIn 2K in device manager, and all is sweet... when i plug in my Sony D8 Cam the devide is recognized as a DVcam under theaudio/video codecs WHEN it should be under Imaging devices for Premiere to work with it.... NOthing is weird yet... adobe has posted a work around this in this article under TI Class drivers...
Extracted from http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/27322.htm
But when i follow there steps to remedy the problem... can't find the dvcam.* files and everytime i try to switych the cam back ON it is installed in the device manager as a TI class....
I need to sort this issue out... ineed to capture footage for a job...
The funny thing is it used to work before i reformatted a while back... it was recognized as an imaging device. The firwire card is sharing IRQ 9 with many devices could that be the cause [i guess not since the device is not showing any conflict]
Thanx for your help
Unable to Capture Using Texas Instruments DV Device in Premiere 6.0 for Windows
Issue
When you try to capture from a Texas Instruments DV device (e.g., 1394 DV Camcorder) in Adobe Premiere 6.0 for Windows, Premiere does not display the device in the Capture dialog box.
Solutions
Do either of the following:
Solution 1
If you use Windows 2000 or Windows 98 Second Edition (SE), use the UnTI utility to automatically disable the Texas Instruments DV Class driver and enable the Microsoft DV Class driver. You can download the utility from the ADS Technologies Web site at www.adstech.com/downloads/pyro.html.
Solution 2
Manually disable the Texas Instruments DV Class driver, and enable the Microsoft DV Class driver:
1. Make sure that the camcorder is connected and turned on, and then choose Start > Programs > Windows Explorer (Windows 98 SE) or Start > Programs > Accessories > Windows Explorer (Windows 2000, Windows Millennium Edition [Me]).
2. Choose Tools > Folder Options, and then click the View tab.
3. Select Show Hidden Files and Folders, deselect Hide File Extensions for Known File Types, and then click OK.
4. Right-click My Computer, and choose Properties from the pop-up menu.
5. Click the Device Manager tab (Windows 98 SE, Windows Me) or click the Hardware tab, and then click Device Manager (Windows 2000).
6. Double-click Sound Video and Game Controllers, select 1394 DV Camcorder, and then click Delete (Windows 98 SE, Windows 2000) or Remove (Windows Me).
7. Turn off the camcorder.
8. Navigate to the [X]:\Windows\Inf folder, where [X] is the system drive, and then delete the following files:
- Dvcam.inf
- Dvcam.sys
- Dvcam.pnf
10. Turn on the camcorder.
11. If any Version Conflict dialog boxes appear, click Yes.
