  1. Hi everyone, this is my first time here on this thread and i need help on Re-Capturing a DV tape as i made a project from college using Adobe Premiere CS3 and bringing that project onto a my computer at home, which opens perfectly, but it needs the files.

    i thought this was to be an easy job, as all i need to do is re-capture the tape (which i used Scene Detect to seperate each shot needed) as exactly what ive done in college, and yet it shouldnt be a problem if one does go wrong, as it relies on the time code exactly.

    so when i open my project, i get all my files on the timeline as i made it out to be, and of course they dont work because there is no actual video captured, so i highlighted the files in my project window and ordered to do a Batch Capture, but when i do this, it says that there is no tape given, which is very weird, dont worry, all the connections and stuff works, i can even capture still, but for re-capturing those files, it doesnt seem to work.

    i really need help here and i would really appreciate it if someone can help me as well. i also got the EDL's of each video track, but they wont be too much use as i would have to relink them, and i wouldnt remember them exactly.

    i look forward hearing back from u lot

    As you figured out, the Project only save an information linked to original file. Once you relocate or loose the file it is useless.
    Only think I would try to recapture original file to HD and when you open the project it will ask for a file location. Point it to your new download, but if this is different from old one, than it may not work either.
