1. Re: using canopus 110 with cs5.5 hook up?
Ann Bens Jul 22, 2012 2:28 PM (in response to TheCoroner9)Have you tried it with composite cables (red white yellow) in stead of svideo.

2. Re: using canopus 110 with cs5.5 hook up?
TheCoroner9 Jul 22, 2012 2:49 PM (in response to Ann Bens)No - I'm running the SVIDEO output of the hi8 deck into SVIDEO input on the Canopus 110.
Before I dealt with the canopus 110 I even tried running the SVIDEO output from the hi8 deck into the SVIDEO input on my Intensity pro card (but I always end up with no sound in CS5.5) so I figured using the firewire output on the 110 would be easier. It hasn't been.

Peru Bob Jul 22, 2012 2:42 PM (in response to TheCoroner9)Is the Canopus input selection switch on digital or analog?

4. Re: using canopus 110 with cs5.5 hook up?
TheCoroner9 Jul 22, 2012 2:51 PM (in response to Peru Bob)Both lights are blue on the front of the canopus 110. digital is a solid blue light. Analog is a solid blue light. I push the input selector and nothing seems to change.
Again on the front of the canopus 110 I have connected:
Firewire out going to my Intensity pro card.
SVIDEO in (from a hi8 deck).
the two RCA audio inputs (from a hi8 deck).
Back of the canopus 110 I have connected:
Firewire cable going to my PC (powers the canopus).

5. Re: using canopus 110 with cs5.5 hook up?
Peru Bob Jul 22, 2012 2:55 PM (in response to TheCoroner9)I would try using composite as Ann suggested. I've found little difference in quality between that and s-video plus audio.

6. Re: using canopus 110 with cs5.5 hook up?
TheCoroner9 Jul 22, 2012 3:15 PM (in response to Peru Bob)Problem is there is no composite input on the canopus 100 for 3 cables.
Plus I'm running it out of a sony evo-9720 hi8 player.
Either SVIDEO in or one RCA video in are my choices with the canopus 110
In the meantime, I tried hooking the SVIDEO back up to the intensity pro card cables on the back of my PC along with the 2 rca audio cables.
I getting video at least (yeah - that's more than the canopus 110). I can see the video during capture. But I can't hear any audio.
If I record the clip. I get audio. But I really do need to hear it when I'm capturing.
I keep changing settings for the audio in cs5.5 preferences and nothing.. same results (Get video and but can't hear audio during capture).
If anyone knows of a suggestion to get the audio out of CS5.5 doing it this alternative way let me know.

Jim_Simon Jul 22, 2012 5:32 PM (in response to TheCoroner9)It looks like you're complicating things by using two different devices. Pick one. Either send the Hi8 analog into the Intensity analog inputs, bypassing the Canopus. Or send the FireWire out from the Canopus to your computer, bypassing the Intensity.

shooternz Jul 22, 2012 5:41 PM (in response to TheCoroner9)I'm then taking the front canopus firewire output into my firewire cable that connected to my Intensity Pro card.
Does an Intensity Pro Card have a FW connection?. Mine doesnt.

I assume you mean 110, not 100 in the first sentence.
The player has composite out (yellow, red, white).
The 110 has composite in (yellow, red, white).
Why can't you use composite?

10. Re: using canopus 110 with cs5.5 hook up?
Jim_Simon Jul 23, 2012 10:49 AM (in response to Peru Bob)Given the availability of S-Video, why would he want to use composite?

11. Re: using canopus 110 with cs5.5 hook up?
Peru Bob Jul 23, 2012 3:31 PM (in response to Jim_Simon)Is there really that much difference in quality, Jim?
Maybe it's just my footage, but I haven't noticed much difference when I tried it.
-
12. Re: using canopus 110 with cs5.5 hook up?
Jim_Simon Jul 23, 2012 5:23 PM (in response to Peru Bob)There's enough of a difference to warrant using S-Video over composite whenever you can.

13. Re: using canopus 110 with cs5.5 hook up?
TheCoroner9 Jul 24, 2012 6:29 AM (in response to shooternz)You're correct shootnz about no firewire on the intensity pro card. I was thinking my sima cable that has the various firewire cables was going to the Intensity pro card.
Still not sure why the canopus isn't taking the dv out into my system via the sima firewire cable (as that is how I input dv footage into CS5.5 without issues).
I ended up just going SVIDEO in and RCA audio ins on my intensity pro card - Finally got audio that way as I completely forgot about having to be sure to adjust the project setting (I'm still new to PP). Once I did that, my program monitor in PP had sound.
