John T Smith Oct 9, 2012 8:21 AM (in response to sheryl fillmon)>Sony PD170 with Windows Live Photo Gallery
A quick Google indicates that camera uses DV tape, so you might want to look at one of these for capture...
I have NOT used either, but many say to try these for SD capture http://windv.mourek.cz/ or http://www.exsate.com/products/dvcapture/
Does Windows Live create DV AVI type 2 with 16bit 48khz sound?
PPro before CS5 NEEDS to be run in compatibility mode with Windows 7, which means right click the program icon and select WinXP compatibility mode from the popup
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/help/compatibility
OR
If you have Win7 64bit PRO or higher, try Microsoft's Virtual XP
.

2. Re: Premiere Pro CS4 Crashing
sheryl fillmon Oct 9, 2012 8:36 AM (in response to John T Smith)John, Windows Live does capture as .avi and here's the specs for the avi file:
In an earlier problem I asked about, I started capturing via Windows Live Photo Gallery because for SOME REASON, my new computer does not allow me to capture via Premiere Pro CS4. It's very funny because it did for a very short period of time. (I think I captured twice) Then for some reason it stopped. The capture window shows up but it won't let me capture. Sometimes I can hit "record" and it looks like it's recording but no video in window and nothing. Very very strange. Bottom line, I have had nothing but issues with my new Win7 based computer.
I appreciate all the suggestions and I will begin working through them... I promise. I'll keep you updated.

3. Re: Premiere Pro CS4 Crashing
John T Smith Oct 9, 2012 9:48 AM (in response to sheryl fillmon)That screen does not show type 1 or 2 so try one of the (free, I think) programs I linked to, to capture a new file for testing
http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en or http://www.headbands.com/gspot/ will allow you to show more file information
And, do right click the program icon and select WinXP compatibility mode to run non-64bit programs
