The first solution I went for was actually yet a different vendor but that was quickly returned when I found out I could not capture directly from adobe premier and it only generated compressed video which mean lossy editing.Ĭanopus usually creates their own converter chips, I don't know though if this is the case for this one. 2 - IEEE 1394 Firewire cables and video tapes are sold separately. I went with this solution instead of the pyro capture box because this did not require an external power supply while the pyro capture box did (though the pyro box is cheaper). Canon ZR Digital Video Camcorders - Mini DV Format. An additional requirement I wanted was to use an external converter versus an internal card. The main requirement was a firewire interface and ability to output uncompressed avi files (for lossless editing).

Overall Review: This was one of two recommended cards for use with adobe premier elements. No need for a separate power brick.Ĭons: More expensive than the competition, doesn't come with bundled software for video capture (came with edius trial version but it expires in 30 days and costs another 200 bucks to purchase). A small, cigarette sized box where you plug-in analog inputs on one side and out comes digitized video on the other. Pros: This device is simplicity by itself. * The ADVC-PSU5V AC Adaptor Kit (sold separately) is required when connecting ADVC55 to a 4-pin IEEE 1394 FireWire portĪdditional Information Date First Available Preferably something that has hardware mpeg-1 & mpeg-2 compression, because Id rather compress on-the-fly than do it later in software (unless theres a good reason to first convert to DV and then compress later in software). Powered by IEEE 1394 (FireWire) connector* Hello, Im looking for a Firewire or USB2 analog->digital video converter for my Mac (MDD).

If you want to transfer analog signals instead, BlackMagic design offers the Intensity Pro 4K Capture Card or Standalone unit with many options for upscaling the video, color correction, etc.

Also, Quicktime may stop often during the capture when tape issues are detected (timecode breaks) requiring you to end up stitching multiple clips together in FCPX anyway. FCPX will automatically create a new clip where every timecode break is detected. The advantage of capturing directly into FCPX is that you will likely want to remove the multiple dropouts associated with older 8mm tapes, so editing the captured file will be necessary to do that - but you'll be forced to capture at a minimum quality of Prores 422 LT (plenty for 8mm SD tapes, but much larger files than H.264). This will offer the option of recording either Prores 4444 Quality (which is overkill) or compressed H.264. In addition to the above information, you can also capture directly into quicktime by using its "New Movie Recording" feature.
